What's up folks. I'm back at it taking care of your favorite group of music making men..
With the economy in the toilet and things being very sketchy out there financially and with a bunch of idiots fighting it out for power and to be the next hero, shows may not be as full as we'd like.
Time for y'all, who do so much already, to really step it up. Let everyone you know who is in driving distance of any upcoming MOFRO show to get on it and get tickets.. Full venues = better shows (not always) In any case, would love to see sh*t loads of folks out there. So get on it, call friends, radio stations, relatives, even a stranger or 2 and hold the phone up and let them know they need to buy a ticket to the show!!!!
Pep-talk-over!
See y'all down the road..
:D

I'm converting as many people as possible around here in Monroe, Louisiana (and friends all over the world). I've got 6 friends who might go to Hal & Mal's in Jackson with me on 11/15. There was a great crowd there in January, so I doubt it will be any less so this time! No downturn in the economy can keep me from my Mofro Soul! Plus I just requested the college station here to get get some Mofro in their rotation....

Thanks for checking in and letting us know what's happening Danny. I'll grab a moment here for anyone who may not know MOFROTM/Danny. He's the band's tour manager. He was on a sabbatical during the summer but is now back at it. I don't know any other tour managers, but if I did I'd put Danny against any one of 'em and sit back and watch him out-manager them with ease (or something like that.)
Can't say that any of us are surprised Danny. If you read/listen/watch the news, or for that matter just talk to people...everybody is clutching their wallets tight and everything from movies to eating out to concerts is suffering (and don't we all know it.) And a quick fix don't seem to be at hand.
We've been talking up Sarasota BluesFest here. Other than the usual suspects, we know of at least 3 other couples going.
Let's all put our thinking caps on. Hey! I think I was in 4th grade when someone last said that!! What can we do??
Danny, other than requesting a song, what do we say to the radio stations? Or is requesting enough? I assume we're talking AAA/independent stations, eh? I may be able to get a list of the ones in the markets where shows are coming up.
As you know, you're preaching to the choir here, but as you also know a very dedicated choir that will do all we can. Calling everyone we know (or don't!) is cool, but we need to somehow get more creative. Damned if I know what that is, but just thought I'd toss it up and see if anyone has any thoughts we can bounce around here.

Firefly, you must've snuck some of that mountain dew in with you. Stuff takes your breath away don't it? I'll be in the heart of Appalachia in a few days, where there's a few stills dotted around the countryside to this day.
Now--what do you mean by "...danced on a guy..."? I'm glad his girlfriend didn't smack you or nuthin!

Hey y'all. New to the site. Nice job. Glad to find a place to hang with fellow Mofro fans.
Just want to say I am doing everything I can to get butts through the door for tonight's show in Falls Church, VA. So stoked to have the boys in my own neighborhood. I have traveled far to see them and it's nice that they are returning the favor. All the excitement of the show today has got me seriously considering heading down to Jacksonville for the New Years shows. I bet if you ask me later tonight I will be ready to sign on the dotted line.
See you in a couple hours or out on the road.

As a member of the unofficial mofrofans.com welcoming committee, allow me to be the first to invite you in, Prabupada. We have the time of our lives at Mofro shows and that carries over to this site! Jump on in!
I used to live in DC, and I have tried to get some of my few remaining friends there to get to that show. I know it will be phenomenal! Have a great time! We hope to meet you in Jacksonville!

hahaha clay.
here's the thing, i like to dance, if you got the groove it will move me. it is fun when there are people around me that feel the same but sometimes there's just lots of standing around . so I was shakin it and the guy in front of me turned around so I took charge.
yeah guess I could get my ass kicked but hey it was just dancing ..... ;)

here's something funny. I was hanging out in oyster bay,ny and was playing the OB cd in my friends car for the ride. after dinner I waited outside while she went and got the car. there she comes whippin around the corner with the windows down, cranking WYLF. it made about 10 people dance out in the street.
needless to say I'm not getting the cd back.

Well, I got the number up to 12 of us going tonight to the show in Troy. I can't wait. Gonna warm up with J.J. at 1:00 on the radio (and probably start drinking and smoking around that time too). Can't get too nuts too early, wouldn't want to get so messed up I don't remember the show.
I think I saw someone else mention going to tonight's show in Troy some time back. Are they still here? I hope someone tapes it also.
