Roll Call: My Morning Jacket Toronto

[Basher]

Might as well get the ball rolling. Pretty sure I am in, who will I see there?

Any preplans?

[deranger]

In.

going early for Besnard Lakes too.

[Basher]

Any idea what time MMJ will hit the stage?

[Jaimoe]

I'm going with some work friends - I work until 7pm, but I'll try to get off work at 6. Tentative plans are to meet-up at the Jason George Pub at 6:15-6:30; the pub is located at Jarvis and Front (north-east corner on Front). I hope to see you there, Brian, Josh etc...

[Basher]

I don't have a ticket - anyone think it will sell out?

[phunkyb]

I am in as well! Don't have a ticket yet but I doubt it will sell out.

[Jaimoe]

I don't know Brian. I think you'll be ok. Even when shows sell-out at The Kool Haus, the bastards still seem to sell tickets at the door; see Ween and The Raconteurs.

[Jaimoe]

If this was the States, then you'd be screwed, ticket-wise. However, few know who the hell these cats are in God's Country.

[scottieking]

yep. in and out. last day of class tuesday.

[Jaimoe]

Hope to see all of you at the pub tomorrow, even Basher.

[Basher]

Fuck that!

[afro poppa]

i just realised that i can make this show,

probably driving in from collingwood for it, without a ticket

word

[Cully]

Can't wait.

[NewRider]

Anyone driving in from Hamilton?

[Cully]

take the bus my friend, or train!

[bONES]

Is this show tonight?

Will it likely start say...after 10pm do you folks think?

[Basher]

Show is tonight. Doors at 8PM with an opener, so I would figure a 10pm (ugh) MMJ start.

[fluffhead77]

giddy up!!

[bouche]

are you guys drinking already?

[Booche]

Arent you guys drinking already?

[bouche]

anyone know of a good breakfast place in ottawa?

[scottieking]

FYI, opener is the Besnard Lakes. See y'all there.

[Jaimoe]

The Raconteurs hit the stage at 9:20 last week. I'm assuming MMJ will be on around the same time, although I'm getting there early to see Besnard Lakes.

[Basher]

Jaimoe, The Raconteurs show had a doors time of 8 and an opener too?

[Jaimoe]

Tonight's show easily ranks #4 of the 4 shows I've seen. However, if you are a fan of MMJ's latest effort, Evil Urges, then you may have a differing opinion. The #4 ranking comes down to a few factors: Evil Urges is 6/7 days old and I'm not overly familiar with it, plus it doesn't rock with the same energy or slam you in the face like their other albums do; nothing touches "Lay Low", "One Big Holiday" or "Dondante". Also, there is a realization that Jim James could do a whole 2 hours of solo acoustic stuff that would better a full band's set by a mile. Still, it was a good show. The encore kicked it and saved the night. Have a good one show in Montreal.
