    No votes for "it's about twilight now"? I'll. vote for that. certainly wouldn't mind a revival of the full run thru either.

    And PWW would be nice too, but I don't want to be greedy.

    Alright, I'm trying to expand my musical tastes outside of 90s alt. I've tried and tried but can't find anything that truly moves me. I've never given MMJ an honest chance. What album should I start with?

    Yeah, It's About Twilight Now. Good call Lifted. And War Begun, also good call.

    So you want me to start with a live album before I know their music?

    If you'd rather start with a studio album, It Still Moves would be my recommendation.

    Okay, thanks for the recommendations, I'll go with both.

    I'm taking my wife to MMJ in August and she doesn't know anything about the band. We listened to Okonokos on a roadtrip and she liked it. 8-)

    Yeah, maybe a little wishful thinking on my part. I just need something to appease the fact that Boston is skipped on this entire tour. And they play California enough. 5 shows last year alone by my count.

    Didn't Jim already say Boston was getting NYE? I'm sure there will be more NE shows around that.
    This show, another show, a show here and a show there.

    He said nothings finalized. They were working on it and really wanted to make it happen, but nothing definite.

    I'm guessing if he's positive enough to tell RS that it happens. Crazy about phish having MSG booked for years.

    I'm hoping for a SW run after the west coast.

    The Spontaneous Curration Series is such a great idea. I can't even stand it that I'm not hitting any shows this summer.

    Being able to vote for setlists, or even opening songs? I love it. No repeats at Red Rocks? What I wouldn't give to make those shows. I wish I was 10 years younger. :lol:
