I'm planning on going to the Philly show! :D

[TSLROCKS]

I'll be at the NY show! So many damn shows coming up!

[Imperfektion]

I've never been to the Swedish American Hall, regardless I'm stoked for the SF show.

[makeasound]

I've never been to the Swedish American Hall, regardless I'm stoked for the SF show.
I've never been there either... all I know about it is it's the upstairs part of Cafe Du Nord, which is freaking tiny. I'm assuming this place is a little bigger than that based on the picture on the venue website, but I'm not sure. But parking there absolutely sucks since it's so close to Castro.

I'm hoping I can afford to go since I've missed Jack's Mannequin every time they've been through since he played Slim's last November, and I'm not sure I want to go to that Channel104.9 show they're doing. This would be much more fun.

I read that the Swedish American Hall has a capacity of about 330. I just hope that tickets don't sell out too fast.

I was considering about going to that 104.9 show but now that Andrew's coming to SF, I figure there's no point in going to San Jose.

That would actually make sense, since Cafe Du Nord only holds around 150.

I live in Hayward, so I'm halfway between downtown San Jose and downtown San Francisco (which is very convenient sometimes). However, I definitely prefer a small venue to the SJSU Events Center. And I would just rather go to SF than San Jose anyway, bridge toll and all.

I've seen JM play three times this year, all of which were at different sized venues. But this show will definitely be the most intimate show.

[moviefan88]

I've never been to the Swedish American Hall, regardless I'm stoked for the SF show.

I went there once while I was living out there. It's a really nice place, but definitely small and intimate. It does have a bigger floor area than Cafe Du Nord. Basically there are rows of chairs on the floor and then I believe people can stand in the back. There's also a small balcony. This picture gives you a pretty good example of the venue with people in it: http://lh4.ggpht.com/_OeIG-w-fP9k/SarvQXG8SRI/AAAAAAAABf4/VJRpk3q4YEs/s720/crowdswedish.JPG
Should be pretty cool to see Andrew there.

I'll be hitting up the KY date. I'm really excited!

Whoa, I didn't know this show was going to be seated.

[neverenoughx]

I'll be at the NYC date.
I've seen JM twice before but never as headliners so I'm really looking forward to this.

[imagination]

i've only been to cafe du nord, never the swedish hall..
i still l haven't decided if i wanted to try and get tickets for the sf date, though

[kmc]

Just to clarify, this tour is just Andrew and his piano. The other JM members will not be on this tour. It's going to be completely different than a regular JM show... very chill, no jumping on the piano, etc (from what I've read/seen from the past 2 solo shows). That's part of the appeal, for me at least. I've seen JM 5x but never Andrew alone so it's going to be weird but awesome at the same time.

Thanks for the heads up.
I knew the other members wouldn't be on the tour, but otherwise I assumed it to be similar to a JM headliner.
It's gonna be a great show, no matter what though.

NYC sold out in mere seconds

[xxkacf]

i just got my nyc tickets. i'm dying to see what his set is going to be like.

If for some reason you end up with an extra, please keep me in mind. I'll buy you a drink if you sell me the ticket :)

Also, I plan on recording it for all the world to hear. I recorded his last solo performance:

[EmoPunkKid28]

Was able to nab myself a ticket for the Somerville show this morning, beyond excited. Sold out in minutes, because a friend tried to get a pair and they were gone in less than 15 minutes.

Have never been to this venue (Arts at the Armory), anyone ever gone there?

[annn]

Fuck my life. Tried to buy tickets at 10:02 for DC and was sold out. Guess I have to wait for Friday...

[neverenoughx]

I couldn't get tickets for the NYC date.
And I'm not sure if I'll be near a computer for most of Friday.
Ugh.

[kmc]

I got my ticket to Philly! I was on at exactly 10AM, but it didn't work. When it eventually did work, it said it was sold out. But then around 1PM tickets appeared again! :D

The wait until Oct 15th is going to feel like an eternity.

[And Hours Pass]

Anybody know if I'll have trouble grabbing tickets to the MN show?

[DaTBoiDaN]

Fuck my life. Tried to buy tickets at 10:02 for DC and was sold out. Guess I have to wait for Friday...

There's a ticketmaster presale going on right now. Password is WATCHTHESKY.

You're the shit, thanks!

[DaTBoiDaN]

You're the shit, thanks!

No problem. I was actually in the car driving to the PA Blink-182 show trying to buy the tickets on my friends blackberry when they went on sale yesterday. And of course, they sold out so I was really happy to find the presale.

[ascitiesburn101]

Anyone know what time they go on sale tomorrow morning?

[xidreamofyou32x]

I have a ticket for the Troubadour show, I'm really excited. I've seen Jack's Mannequin several times but never Andrew by himself.

[teh_erica]

It sucks that the closest date to me is DC, like 6 hours away haha.. I don't think I'll be making it to this tour. I really want to know what Andrew's going to be playing though.

[tttygxlove]

I'm mad I'll miss this, I guess I'll just lurk around here for set lists and reviews.

[mmgx]

fuck, didn't realize tickets went on sale and the newport ky show is sold out!

i am becoming more and more depressed about the fact that i can't go to any of these shows.

[amysaurus]

Anaheim date <3 I am so beyond stoked for this. This fall is full of great events I'm looking forward to.

[piaffeprncess98]

I can't make it to the DC show. I hope someone records some of the shows.

[kmc]

ANDREW PLAYED KATIE AND HERIONE TONIGHT IN DETROIT (opening for OLP) HOLYYY SHIT.
Btw I wasn't there... I just know people that were lol.

Also, yesterday was the 4-year anniversary of EIT's release as well as Andrew's bone marrow transplant from his sister Katie. The Detroit show was the closest show to that date, so idk if Katie was a one-time thing or not.

[tm24x]

Who is the opener for the 8/15 date in philly?

[neverenoughx]

Just so you know, there's tickets for every date of this on Stubhub except for the Colorado date.
A few the dates the tickets are under 40 dollars, which isn't too bad.

[kmc]

Who is the opener for the 8/15 date in philly?
There are no openers on this tour.

[tm24x]

There are no openers on this tour.

really? yes...more time for andrew...

[ctm133]

If anyone has 1-3 tickets for the Bowery Ballroom NYC 10/19 show, I'll gladly buy them from you!

[irthesteve]

I am quite possibly going to that show

[amysaurus]

I am quite possibly going to that show

o rly. Let me know if you do I'd love to meet up

[irthesteve]

o rly. Let me know if you do I'd love to meet up
i'll let you know if so. at this point i am trying to convince my roommates to come, but i am near the point where i am slightly worried it will sell it and kinda just want to say fuck it and buy a ticket anyway

[Phil507]

Our Lady Peace.

JM opens for Our Lady Peace? I would think, at this point, they'd at least co-headline (or OLP would support JM)? Unless the show was in Canada, then JM opening would make perfect sense.

[ACA]

Throwing it out there:

Jack's Mannequin is opening for Girl Talk.

How popular is Girl Talk? I seriously have no idea.. but he did sell out Terminal 5 for like 5 straight nights?

[Michellee]

JM opens for Our Lady Peace? I would think, at this point, they'd at least co-headline (or OLP would support JM)? Unless the show was in Canada, then JM opening would make perfect sense.
It was 93.9's River Fest so I don't think Jack's had a choice or anything.

[Michellee]

There's a new date for the solo tour in West Palm Beach but it's 21+



Also I will be attending the Philly date woohoo.

[kmc]

I don't think it's been mentioned yet, but for those of you who don't already know, Bobby (JM's guitarist) will be on this tour as well.

They played Walking By (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hzaKJTNbWOg) and Piano Man (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d9vfFrXqrPQ) last night! :D

[EmoPunkKid28]

Friend surprised me with a ticket to see Ryan Gosling's band in Boston the same night as this show. I don't know which one I'm going to go to, I'd love to see both!!!! Ughhhh

Nope, it's just Andrew.

At the show on Monday in Fort Myers, he played Walking By, Heroine, Kids, The Mixed Tape, Holiday From Real, Bruised, Dark Blue, Kill The Messenger, Swim and The Resolution.

[TheCrazyFox22]

Anyone else think Globes & Maps is an incredibly random SoCo song to pull out of the catalogue? Especially at the expense of skipping stuff like Straw Dog, Hurricane, Etc.

Also, he should play Mulligan Goes to War or Babies of the 80s... Then he'll know who his real fans are...

Well he can only play songs that he wrote... Josh wrote a bunch of Soco songs as well, including Hurricane. But I would laugh so hard if he broke out into Babies of the 80's.

[TheCrazyFox22]

I doubt there is some legal obstable to him playing songs written by other members of the bands. I mean, he already plays covers. Does he get express permission from those artists every time he plays their songs?

[caitlinlee]

Walking By?! So ridiculously mad I'm not going to this show.

[boxingwithstars]

I doubt there is some legal obstable to him playing songs written by other members of the bands. I mean, he already plays covers. Does he get express permission from those artists every time he plays their songs?

it's not a legal issue, but he's probably not going to play songs he didn't write out of respect for Josh. i doubt he has much attachment to a song like Hurricane anyway since he only preformed it. if he's going to get up there and preform as a solo artist, he's probably going to want to stick to material that means something to him.

[swimforthemusic]

Bands can cover any song as long as the venue pays fees to the 3 different agencies that collect money for the song composers so I don't see why he couldn't play any of those songs.

Well the setlist has like the worst possible SoCo songs. No hurricane, me and the moon, runaway, space, punk rock princess, i woke up in a car, cavanaugh park or if u c jordan? really those are his biggest songs and he doesn't play one of them. no konstantine either. this setlist really sucks.

First of all, he played Heroine (Punk Rock Priness) last night. The set list is below. Second, he has played Cav Park and MATM on the majority of the previous JM tours, and quite frankly I'm glad he's not playing them this tour. Third, I love to listen to If U C Jordan when I'm angry, but I would not consider it to be one of the best Soco songs by any means. Andrew has said in interviews that he doesn't really like it that much either. And Konstantine isn't even worth addressing.

Imo, the ones he is playing are amazing. I realize that everyone complains about setlists, and I do too, but I'm just happy he's playing SO many Soco songs. Even though this is an Andrew McMahon tour, it is being advertised as "Andrew McMahon from JM," so seeing this many Soco songs is an awesome suprise.

I cannot believe I missed this show. Wow.

[xxkacf]

does anyone have two extra tickets to the nyc show NEXT monday at bowery? i'm going tonight, but i was supposed to go with my mom who is a HUGE jack's mannequin fan, but she got pneumonia and now she can't go. i feel so bad, she was so excited...it was supposed to be a birthday present because her birthday's in 10 days. so if anyone has two extra tickets they're willing to sell for face value to me, that would be awesome!

This is great.Guess that means no Konstantine...

[ascitiesburn101]

I can't remember the setlist for KY, but the show was insane. One notable difference was that he played "21 and Invincible" though. That was awesome.

[ACA]

I bootlegged tonight's performance.

Midway through, though, my battery died. Ruined what would have been perfect a perfect boot. Part 1 is an expensive camera, Part 2 is iPhone.. cuts in the middle of "Walking By".

I'll have my review and the bootleg on my site soon.

[x0kristennn]

I'm so pissed off that I missed tickets to this.

i may have an extra ticket to the boston show (judging by your location, that's where you want to go). would you be interested if it ends up being free? i will know definitely by tomorrow afternoon.

That's awesome, I'd like to see them.

I'm trying to convince my brother to record the show with this expensive professional recorder he recently bought for school. He thinks that security won't allow recording or that they will confiscate it because it looks like a taser. Haha.

[ACA]

I need a ticket to NYC Bowery. Let me know.

[TMS2787]

Man, these setlists are nice. It really makes me wish the KY show was this Saturday and not last because I'll be in Cincy.

[queefs]

last night's show was so good

[pennie]

Surprised he isn't playing Me and the moon really

[pianomanfan021]

last night's show was so good


couldn't agree more. setlist for 10/12 was almost identical to what's posted a page back, with the only exception being an included cover of bob dylan's "just like a woman." andrew also dedicated "the astronaut" to his mother who was in attendance.

[bobbyithappens]

I'm so stoked for tomorrow's show in MA. This man is a god in my book.

[anamericangod]

Did he play Rescued at the show you got the bootleg of?

Someone on JM.com (asafetybuzz) is selling their ticket for the next NYC show for $50. Their email address is eac405 @nyu.edu. They posted it here: http://www.jacksmannequin.com/news/2009/10/13/meet-andrew-boston-philly-and-dc#new (http://www.jacksmannequin.com/news/2009/10/13/meet-andrew-boston-philly-and-dc#new)

[themodernelite]

I went to the show last night in Somerville, MA and thought of writing down the setlist but decided against it...anyways, it was something like this, all the songs are right but not in perfect order (feel free to correct me if you were there!)

Hammers and Strings (A Lullaby)
As You Sleep
Dark Blue
Crashin’
Holiday from Real
She Paints Me Blue
Walking By
The Mixed Tape
Kill the Messenger
Rescued
Spinning
Bloodshot
The Resolution
21 and Invincible
Moon River (cover)
La La Lie (West Coast Winter version)

Encore:
Punk Rock Princess (Heroine version)
Swim
Olive (from Bobby Raw's band Bikelock)
The Astronaut
Bruised

My favorites were Walking By (my second favorite song of all time, #1 being Konstantine) and Kill The Messenger. Totally jealous of you guys that got to see Globes and Maps! Wish there had been more SoCo on the set, especially from LTTW, but it's Andrew fucking McMahon. I can't complain :)

Dang. You had an awesome view. I'm gonna relive the night through your vids instead. Thanks for posting!

[kmc]

I was at the Philly show last night. The setlist was:

Kill the Messenger
Dark Blue
Crashin
As You Sleep
Holiday from Real
Spinning
Annie
She Paints Me Blue
The Resolution
Walking BY
Swim
21 & Invincible
The Mixed Tape
Bloodshot
Moon River
Bruised
-------------
Hammers and Strings
THERE, THERE KATIE
Heroine
Olive (Bikelock song)
The Astronaut
Walking By
La La Lie (West Coast Winter)

The show was absolutely incredible. In my opinion, this show had the best setlist of any of the shows thus far, especially bc it was the first time he's played Katie this tour. When he introduced it, my hands started shaking so much that my friend had to record it for me lol. I was really happy that he played KTM, AUYT and The Astronaut, too, since those haven't been played at every show. Andrew was hysterical, and his random stories were so entertaining.

Also, he soundchecked Down during the meet and greet. I'm SO jealous of everyone who got to see it.

I took one-minute videos of every song, as well as a few random things- www.youtube.com/kmc724 (http://www.youtube.com/kmc724). Some of them are still uploading though.

[muggsy33]

First of all, he played Heroine (Punk Rock Priness) last night. The set list is below. Second, he has played Cav Park and MATM on the majority of the previous JM tours, and quite frankly I'm glad he's not playing them this tour. Third, I love to listen to If U C Jordan when I'm angry, but I would not consider it to be one of the best Soco songs by any means. Andrew has said in interviews that he doesn't really like it that much either. And Konstantine isn't even worth addressing.

Imo, the ones he is playing are amazing. I realize that everyone complains about setlists, and I do too, but I'm just happy he's playing SO many Soco songs. Even though this is an Andrew McMahon tour, it is being advertised as "Andrew McMahon from JM," so seeing this many Soco songs is an awesome suprise.

Last night's setlist:
1.Hammers and strings
2.Mixtape
3.Crashing
4.As You Sleep
5.Holiday from Reel
6.Friend of the Devil (Grateful Dead cover)
7.Annie Use Your Telescope
8.Resolution
9.She Paints Me Blue
10.Spinning
11.Dark Blue
12.Walking By
13.21 and Invincible
14.Bloodshot
15.West Coast Winter (aka La La Lie)
16.Moon River (cover)
Encore:
17.Punk Rock Princess
18.Swim
19.Astronaut
20.Bruised

How is konstantine not worth adressing, he only says he wont play it with JM but then doesn't play it at solo shows...

[muggsy33]

you seem to be confused, this isn't a Something Corporate reunion tour.

no i'm not confused im just wondering why he doesn't play one of his best songs and frankly his most popular ones.

[muggsy33]

If U C Jordan? Really?

yeah.. whats wrong with if u c jordan? it's one of his best songs.

[DCfreak]

yeah.. whats wrong with if u c jordan? it's one of his best songs.


No, its absolutely his worst song.

[muggsy33]

No, its absolutely his worst song.

that's your opinion. In most other peoples opinion its one of his best and was HUGE hit for him.

[kmc]

It's not worth addressing because Andrew has explicitly said countless times that he will never play that song unless it's WITH Soco. Also, like I've said, this tour is being promoted as "Andrew McMahon from JM." The object of this tour is promote Dear Jack and JM, not Soco.

Also, even though If U C Jordan was a hit, does not automatically make it a good song. Although I wouldn't call it the worst (that would be Drunk Girl imo), it is by FAR not the best.

Ah see i love drunk girl. I guess we'll agree to disagree

[Eepots]

i believe andrew himself does not even like the song anymore since it's such a negative song. (talking about if you see jordan) i think its a good song when you're young..but when you're older just seems completely immature. i think that is also some of andrew's feelings towards it too.. i wish i could get some quotes, but don't have time right now.

found a quote..from the chat at ap

do you dislike any of the songs youve written and released?
"I struggle with jordan a little bit. Never intended that thing to be the monster it was, and I'm not particularly proud of the message"

[pennie]

In fairness it's really not.

[itslillers]

I really hope he plays "Down" and/or "Globes and Maps" tonight or on Thursday in lieu of the covers, not that they aren't great, but I'd much rather see rarer Soco material than a cover of the song from Breakfast at Tiffany's.

[swt_catastrophe]

So tonight at his home show (HOB Anaheim) he played a lot of random songs. I don't claim that this is complete or in order, by any means.

I wish we could have gotten either Rescued or Cavanaugh Park tonight. That would have made my life. Either way, so thoroughly impressed with this man's performance tonight. Definitely reminded me why I'm so madly in love with him.

[itslillers]

Cavanaugh Park would've been amazing tonight!! Ah if only... everything sounded absolutely amazing tonight. I really wished that he would record all of his songs like this.

And not to be creepy in any sort of way, but this stirred the fangirl inside of me. As my friend and I were driving from the HOB Anaheim after the show, we were stopped at a stoplight before the freeway, and guess who stopped right next to us? Andrew!!! Haha my friend and I were so confused and we saw him with his wife, so we tried not to be creepy and stare and just drove away. That is all - this was my lame story.

I'm not complaining one bit, but I'm bummed we didn't get Heroin :(

[itslillers]

I got m&g for the show on Thursday and we got to hear the end of soundcheck. He played "I'm on Fire" and "Rocket Man" and during the show he decided to play "I'm on Fire" instead, but I took a video of Rocket Man because I've never heard him play this before!8BJXHKXs7Jk

My favorite of the night though was when he sang "The Astronaut."

[nickyyxo]

I wish he played Hurricane.
I got a Hurricane Tattoo!!! He's coming to Aus in Feb, so I'm assuming the set list will be similar!
