    NO, NO, NO! saw them with Petty and absolutely HATED them sharing the stage... It is just not the same. I'll travel up North to see them alone rather than see any shared shows down here.

    I just don't buy the ticket sales excuse. Just play 1 city in each state and run multiple shows - people will come (like they did in Australia). I'd go to 2-3 shows in West Palm and another 2-3 shows in Atlanta and see where they went from there -if I can drive it - I'll go.

    Create more demand with less logistical costs.
    It is cool man it is a pig pickin. Like college football in the south you start at noon and end at midnight. Give DBT an hour MMJ 2 hours and pj 3 hours :)

    I felt the same way about Drive-by Truckers opening for Black Crowes........It's tough watching a 30 minute set by a band that every other time that you have seen them went over 2 hours. What was worse, IMHO, was the fact that DBT was the first of three.....Rober Randoplh Family Band or whatever they were called was second......they seemed to go on forever.......they weren't my thing....we left about three songs into the Black Crowes.


    I was looking forward to seeing DBT when I went to see The Black Crowes. Had heard a lot of praise heaped on them but missed most of their set because I was waiting to meet The Crowes back stage. They sounded really good from what I did get to hear though.

    I know they had originally planned on Orlando, but backed out before the plans were firm - so we are not out of the question.

    Never heard that before, that's interesting. Where did that info come from?

    Fuck, I just saw this thread... it's been a while since I've been on here. I'll send one out tomorrow... but I also think it might be a good idea to set another date, say 2 weeks from now, to do it again so maybe the word has a little bit more time to get around.

    I guess this is a pretty good question to ask... I just assumed everyone was sending it to the 10c. If that's not the case, someone correct me. Here's the address for that though:

    And last, maybe they thought better of doing the South now in favor of closer to the election year when they can do some more activism.
    It's a mid-term election year..........governor's race and what not this year in Alabama.

    They were talking about an Orlando booking in Mid November it on local radio station - also Atlanta too. But then they announced the Australia tour and it all went away.

    BEAUTIFUL PICS SPALMA!!! Make me very homesick......
    I've lived on both coasts of the US, up and down both and there are NO BEACHES ANYWHERE as beautiful as those in Florida. I don't know if you'll make PJ want to visit, but now I sure do! Thank God I have a niece who lives in Navarre Beach I can go visit..........

    Thanks for letting me see what you see - all the time!

    MMJ opened up in Lisbon - Actually not bad - def some southern rock roots (I think they are from Kentucky?)- and they jam a lot. Better than Death Cab was as an opener.

    Thanks weenie - we have the most beautiful beaches in the world! perhaps not the greatest waves, but the beaches are gerat. That is one thing we can thank Jeb for - no oil rigs off our coasts. He fought big bro on that one.

    you should give them a shot. Especially live. I would say besides pearl jam they are my second favorite band live. They have a ton of energy live.

    Check out the song One Big Holiday by them.

    In fact check out this link
    http://www.mymorningjacket.com/streams.html

    on the right hand side you will see a colum for video. Second video down check out their performance on Conan. You might dig it :)

    By the way why is this on the second page???? :D

    Death Cab was a snoozefest in Kissimmee.......good on a CD, boring on the stage

    Yeah, I couldn't believe they were the same band. MMJ was consistant with their CDs.
