    That's it! restlesssoul, you just hit the proverbial nail right on the head! So hard to quantify in words what this band means.

    They're booked for the Greek Theater in LA on 8-12-10. Not announced by the band yet but a google search will yield many results. i guess it's already on sale to premium members.

    Really hoping to make a few nights out here on the tour!!

    MMJ are the ones who will carry the baton on from PJ when the time comes - when it comes to being the pinnacle of live acts. Them and Gogol Bordello hands down.

    Jim James knows how to do it right. Best album of 2009 was the Monsters of Folk album, and without Yim it's shit.

    MMJ have the feel to them that PJ has, and like I said, will be the band I'll be following when Pearl Jam decides to hang it up. Too good. If you haven't seen them live yet, you're definitely missing out. The show in Philly in '08 at Festival Pier was beautiful. Hopefully one year they'll play Bonnaroo again and I'll get to see one of these epic all-nighters they pull.

    I agree 110% with these statements.

    MMJ are one of the best live acts i've ever seen... I simply didn't belive it until I saw it myself.

    I can't wait for them to come back to Europe... when they come back :roll: :P
    Been to this many PJ shows: Reading 2006 London 2007 Manchester & London 2009 Dublin, Belfast, London, Nijmegen & Berlin 2010 Manchester 1 & Manchester 2 2012...

    ... and I still think Drive-By Truckers are better.

    I came on board a little late to MMJ. Saw them open for PJ 2x. The first album I got was It Still Moves, around the time it came out, I got hooked and bought Z and Evil Urges as soon as they were released. But I still haven't heard the first 2 albums. Reading this thread I'm starting to think I'm really missing something there...I would appreciate any input regarding the first 2 albums that anyone might feel like sharing. Thanks!

    they're both great. more lo-fi than the newer ones. at dawn is actually my favorite mmj album. check them out, very different than the stuff you seemed to have heard from them, but again, very great.

    Thanks for the feedback. If it's more lo-fi that is OK with me...of the 3 albums I have It Still Moves is my favorite, with Z being my least fav. Evil Urges is just so all over the place that I can't help but love it!
