I wasn't sure how I felt about Circuital, but with it looping in my car for the past 3 weeks it's realllly grown on me. The album as a whole is just really well-done. I can't wait to see them in Philly - especially after looking at the recent set lists!

The recent setlists have totally bummed me out. They are playing like 23 songs and the song selection does not vary all that much. Maybe I was just spoiled seeing three of their albums in their entirety last year.
If I get Movin Away I will be a very happy boy. But they play it at less than half the shows so I need some luck.
Dammit Dewie, they played Phone Went West for ya?! That's awesome. Glad you had an awesome time. That was my one hopeful for Sunday. They better play it again.

Yeah, they're still playing for 2.5 hours, and they barely leave the stage for their encore break.

I know it will still be a great night. I just want as many songs as possible. 25 song sets should be the minimum of great bands with several albums IMO.
Dammit Dewie, they played Phone Went West for ya?! That's awesome. Glad you had an awesome time. That was my one hopeful for Sunday. They better play it again.
They killed PWW!! Cool set closer...Always liked the tune, but it really grabbed me last night. Hopefully the crowd response convinced them to play it sooner than later.
I thought you'd be jealous of the Carl tune. Weren't we the only people around here that got into that album?

Okay cool, I was wondering how long the shows actually lasted. Plus I will get to the VA venue early and be within 10 feet of the stage (easily- hopefully front row).
Wow I will be traveling a lot over a two week span to see MMJ and PJ. This will be awesome. And I will catch Deerhunter in NYC right before I leave.

Yeah, that too. I love Carried Away, but not my fav of the record. You're right, I think we were the only two who loved All Birds Say. I'd love a Carl-only tour in Winter-Spring 2012.

Can't wait. The Pavilion is is easily my favorite venue in Boston. A few weeks later I will be there seeing The National there too. After not seeing anything since Eddie is Boston this summer the end of the summer/fall is looking to be excellent. Kah-Bang, MMJ Boston, The National, Elbow, Flamming Lips, Pixies, and Foo Fighters.
Thanks for the hookup!

Did i forget anyone? Im doing this off memory here.
And...it sounds like the folks from the MMJ forum are planning their meetup @ Remys. I think I'd rather try somewhere else. Whiskey Priest would be my first choice...tho I haven't ever been there, so feel free to talk me out of that

I'm definitely in with a +1. Either a buddy or the wife, but either will be super excited. I think my wife is secretly hoping my friend bails so she can go, after graciously offering him her ticket.
I'm all for Whiskey Priest. Sounds like a good place. What time are people showing up? And what time has the band been taking the stage?
Now that I think of it, it might be a walk to go there. There are much closer places.

You are right there...it probably is the farthest away from the venue...I know the hotel most of us are staying at is even closer than WP...but maybe that'll be a good thing? Remy's is gonna be mobbed. Im all open for suggestions...Just looking to grab some food and some drinks before the show... Speaking of which....is Sal's down there like all the other Sal's in MA? Pizza wise? The one down there looks more like an Italian restaurant as opposed to a pizza place... I keep hearing good things about their pizza...maybe that'll be my best option for cheap food...
I think check in at the Seaport is 3:00 so I'll probably be getting in town sometime around then. Gotta make plans to meet up w/ Jervin at some point so he can get his tix...
Also, sounding like maybe some rain on Sunday now..so that may make the restaurants/bars even more packed if they cant utilize the outdoor seating/balconys

Just doing some quick google searching while at work
How is the Atlantic Beer Garden?
Whiskey Priest doesn't seem that far away, but I'll trust those that have been there and made the walk. I remember thinking how bad the walk would be at the Ed show this summer from the Beantown Pub to the Wang, but it wasn't bad at all. How long a walk are we talking? I like to get nice and buzz, and maybe enjoy a J on the walk in. But, again, I'll trust the locals. :thumbup:

Whiskey Priest actually only like 1/2 a mile... 0.6 to be exact. (according to google directions) its a straight shot. All basically on same Road...Seaport Blvd/Northern Ave. Slightly longer walk than it was from the EV preparty in RI at Trinity Brew Pub to PPAC.
I like your thoughts on the J walk tho When I was at BOA for A Perfect Circle last month, it wasnt so easy to get a J off inside. We had to steal someone else's seats in the middle of the section cuz mine were on the aisle...and they dont allow smoking in the venue at all.

No smoking at an outdoor venue? Weird. I'm not a full time smoker, but I like to enjoy a couple with a buzz, and especially when there is some great live music playing. Not worth getting booted out though, that's for sure.

Whiskey Priest actually only like 1/2 a mile... 0.6 to be exact. (according to google directions) its a straight shot. All basically on same Road...Seaport Blvd/Northern Ave. Slightly longer walk than it was from the EV preparty in RI at Trinity Brew Pub to PPAC.
I like your thoughts on the J walk tho When I was at BOA for A Perfect Circle last month, it wasnt so easy to get a J off inside. We had to steal someone else's seats in the middle of the section cuz mine were on the aisle...and they dont allow smoking in the venue at all.
mini burritos...im sold.
either of these places are good w/ me tho. Whiskey Priest or Atlantic Beer Garden.
No smoking at an outdoor venue? Weird. I'm not a full time smoker, but I like to enjoy a couple with a buzz, and especially when there is some great live music playing. Not worth getting booted out though, that's for sure.
Your choice, Twisted Sister!
