Just back from At Dawn at TErminal 5. Mesmerizing.
u guys got an amazing setlist!!!
how was the venue??
Mansfield, MA - Jul 02, 2003; Mansfield, MA - Jul 03, 2003; Mansfield, MA - Jul 11, 2003; Boston, MA - Sep 29, 2004; Reading, PA - Oct 01, 2004; Hartford, CT - May 13, 2006; Boston, MA - May 24, 2006; Boston, MA - May 25, 2006; Hartford, CT - Jun 27, 2008; Mansfield, MA - Jun 28, 2008; Mansfield, MA - June 30, 2008; Hartford, CT - May 15, 2010; Boston, MA - May 17, 2010; [EV - Providence, RI - June 15, 2011; EV - Hartford, CT - June 18, 2011]; Worcester, MA - Oct. 15, 2013; Worcester, MA - Oct. 16, 2013; Hartford, CT - Oct. 25, 2013; Boston, MA - August 5, 2016; Boston, MA - August 7, 2016...
As expected the Tennesse Fire night was out of this world.
That album has grown so much from it's originial state. Not that i don't love it as is but to see Nashville to Kentucky, They Ran, The Bear, Think i'm going to Hell, War Begun, Rocket Man, Tyrone, If All Else Fails, Picture of You, I will Be There When you Die, Old Sept...well, you get the point
The poster is really nice as well.
I'm certainly still a little bummed that i could only do the one show
very close to becoming my favorite band. which, at one point, was unthinkable
“I know this song so well, I can smoke a cigarette, have a drink, brush my teeth, take a shit, and mow the lawn while singing it. But I'll only be doing a couple of those things during this version.”
"McCready played on, lending credence to the theory that he was actually built in Stone’s basement from spare truck parts and vinyl records." - Glide Mag. review of MSG 7/8/03
small side note on T5. The roof deck was really cool but did the walk seem very long to anybody? like a half mile long. haha
“I know this song so well, I can smoke a cigarette, have a drink, brush my teeth, take a shit, and mow the lawn while singing it. But I'll only be doing a couple of those things during this version.”
Tonights show will be epic!!! Wishing I could join you!!! Have a great time and report back.
And get yourself a poster if u can!!
Posters from TTF and AD are freakin sweet!!!

If I could've made it to one T5 show, tonight would've been the night.
Hope everyone has a great time!
And Gardenparty......I couldn't agree more. I've always enjoyed them, and have seen them 3 times prior to Portland (2 opening for PJ and Lollapalooza in'07), but never totally got into them. But, something about seeing them last Friday in Portland just put me over the top. It's up there in my top 5 fave shows ever. Just an amazing live act and I cannot wait to see them again (in a headlining position).
Jen, have an AWESOME time tonight! Would have loved to go but with the newborn, only going to make one show.... going tomorrow for Z.
Two of my favorite songs tonight though, "Steam Engine" and "One Big Holiday" (which is going to be INSANE in T5).
Pat! I'll keep an eye out for you tomorrow, as we are going the next three nights. I can do that with no kids!
Looking forward to hearing Golden and OBH tonight, but love both It Still Moves and Z equally.
Get Right - I've read that they have been playing from 9:30-11:30.

3 down and 2 to go....so far my ranking is Thursday>Monday>Tuesday but tonite should top it all....Z is one of my favorite and top 10 records from last decade. I've been waiting for this show for a long time
Anyone know who the artists were for the posters on Monday and Thursday??? Last night kinda looked like Malleus but I couldn't tell...merch guy would only show me pic on camera. P.S. Sorry if i've been blocking anybody's view this week

I really liked Monday's owl themed poster. I didn't even see last night's poster, as we got there too late. :(

Thanks!!! Just PM'd Clint and joined his mailing list, already secured a Burwell poster after speaking to Guy thru email (he gave me his word), and last nite kinda looked like Malleus or Sperry but I couldn't be sure (tho their websites didnt indicate anything so i assume it's a "NO"). The merch guys wouldn't show me one which i can understand to avoid bending/rolling etc to someone's print but the guy showed me a pic on his camera which wasn't bad but too small to view an artist name.
Would really appreciate it if someone could buy me a "ticket" for a poster tonite...I'll buy ya some beers in return...and I'll be in line early on Saturday since that's a day I won't have to come from work in CT

How was Mahgeetah for an opener? I've always loved that song.
absolutely awesome....spiked the energy in the crowd for the nite. Also, it was cool that they brought out Elvis Perkins and his band (the opener) to play horns on a couple songs. that was the first opener to partake in any songs so far this week....they've had a friend (maybe previous band member) play a song or two each nite it's hard to hear what jim says with the echo when youre at the back of the pit so idk much he's been saying or who he introduces but the songs come out pretty clear (the bass screws up phone video recordings)
Wordless Chorus should be the best opener of the week tho...i cant wait for tonite!! N1 they were learning the ropes of the venue, N2 they brought out all these red tapestries and projected the album cover on the curtain (didnt use a curtain N1) and they did the same thing last nite - i figure they'll have Z and Evil Urges covers on the curtain the next 2 nites. Buy tix on eBay, craigslist, etc ppl...you do not wanna miss tonite!!

idk about no hassles....the pit is so jam packed its like everybody is dry humping each others' legs and back the whole time...but thats the pit i guess (still wouldnt trade the floor experience for balcony...dunno why ppl want that - ya u can lean on smthg but you cant really rock out as much imo)

I would give a kidney to be there for this one. Hope yall rock the fuck out!
Steam Engine opened in Mass
Wordless opened in Portland
I couldnt have asked for a better opener at my first and only MMJ shows...they both kicked ass
Steam Engine opener was fuckin A M A Z I N G
best place for that song IMO...but its good no matter where they sneak it in...

well yeah, its always packed up front-there are always hassles when you try to get real close
I was able to score a spot on the side of the floor, not too far back and not under the overhang at about 9 pm
perfect view and sound with no one trying to hump my leg

u guys got an amazing setlist!!!
how was the venue??
Looking forward to tomorrow!
I adore that venue. The acoustics are perfect (although for some reason they were horrible during the Hacienda set). Small and embracing.
but the sound is actually hit or miss given the huge ceiling
up close the sound is great, but step back and its echo city
but great bars and a very cool roof deck
should be interesting tomorrow and Sat.
That album has grown so much from it's originial state. Not that i don't love it as is but to see Nashville to Kentucky, They Ran, The Bear, Think i'm going to Hell, War Begun, Rocket Man, Tyrone, If All Else Fails, Picture of You, I will Be There When you Die, Old Sept...well, you get the point
The poster is really nice as well.
I'm certainly still a little bummed that i could only do the one show
very close to becoming my favorite band. which, at one point, was unthinkable
to all the lucky bastards at T5 this week... I'm jealous.
Sha la la la i'm in love with a jersey girl
I love you forever and forever
