I'm there! With a bunch of friends. So happy they are coming back to my back yard! I will be at the in store as well so I hope to get to meet up with ya. Barleys rocks! Are you from around the area or just happen to know downtown? I'm not sure where we are going to pre-festivate just yet. We have a regular watering hole that we may hit up, bit it has been a while since I played some shuffle board at Barleys.
Looking forward to it!

This has been the looooooooooooooongest morning ever! I am sliding out of work a little early ( around 4 ) and I'll probably head that way. I know quite a few going here to go check out the in store. Look forward to meeting up with you. I will be the short bastard wiping his drool every 43 seconds.

Wow briggzz! Your self control is impressive! I find that my drooling occurs every 43 nano-seconds at a MOFRO show! lol:)
I hope you all have a FANTASTIC time tonight and that between the in-store performance & the show later this evening that you get "The Truth" & "Stagger Lee":)

I am so living vicariously thru you guys right now! Alternating with envy!! Plus y'all are cracking me up. I've met briggzz and he describes himself perfectly except I noted him wiping the drool about every 2 minutes--people were starting to become concerned possibly he was rabid.
Y'all be safe; I KNOW you'll have a great time so I won't say it.

Damn, I never knew my drooling problem was soooo bad, but I am going to make sure I have some extra rags tonight to take care of it. I'm glad I was clear on the description Clay :)
I certainly hope we get to hear " The Truth about Stagger Lee " tonight myself as well. Hoping to snag some video if I can. Sucks we tried to reserve the VIP loft yesterday but it got sold about 30 minutes before we called. I'm not too upset though as I would have ended up fighting my way to the front anyway. It's just too hard to not get up there and get involved in all the action.
Hope to get to meet more great fans from the board as the 'Fro train keeps a rolling.
countdown clock is 2 hours 20 mins.

I got a couple texts from dirtcracker this afternoon. The first one came in at 4:20--actually it was 4:18, but I like the sound of 420 better--and he said 'Dude, I'm walking to the in-store show and it's fucking cold here..." LOL--my Florida Cracker ass would be freezing!
THEN, he sent me the set-list from the in-store:
She Don't Know
Higher You Climb
Circles
Ybor City
I Believe
Orange Blossoms
The Hurricane
Thanks dirtcracker!

For all you late nighters--estan, gigs, ash, kimberly, freak, and everyone else who should be in bed by now (except Kimberly), I just got a text from dirtcracker in Greenville. Said Greg Humphries just sat in on Mojo. Sweet!

I have to be at school at 10 am tomorrow -- that is a LATE morning these days. It means I get to stay up late tonight. I'm trying to study for a Friday exam -- but the Mofro Mojo keeps me distracted. Might need to go to rehab.
What is that nice little poem, Clay? Should I know it?

Clay are you going on the "Ships & Dips" cruise?
Alas, I must seek my bed, I need to be up in 5 hrs. I was trying to stay up and see if dirtcracker would text you the setlist but sweet dreams are a calling, so I will have to wait until morning:) Have a lovely evening/morning my MOFRO amigos:)

Yes giggles. We're triple dippers--Ships & Dip I in '07, Ships & Dip III in '08, and Ships and Dip V in '09. (It represents the polar opposite end of our musical spectrum.)
Off to bed I am; I have to get up tomorrow too.

WOW!!!! Is about all I can say at this point. I'll post more later but the show was amazing and it was cool to rock out with dirtcracker!
Got tons of pics / video I'll be working to get up at some point soon hopefully. My friend Candice and I snagged the front table at the in-store and I got it all from start to finish on video so I can share that with everyone.
More to come after I do this damn "work" thing.

man, i was keeping track of the setlist last night up until Ybor city. i had the setlist from the in-store saved in notepad on my phone and was doing the one for the show there as well. well, somehow i began adding songs to the in-store and the show on a rotating basis. no clue how it happened but i'm blaming Sam Adams and my touch-screen phone.
was cool meeting Briggzz and his crew and Danny as well. nothing like the tour manager telling you thanks for driving to the show. i'll let it slide that i didn't get a setlist. lol
seeing Briggzz's face at the in-store when Danny and JJ just rolled in was completely priceless.
oh, and for beer drinkers out there, those that like GOOD beer....i HIGHLY suggest trying the Flying Dog's Gonzo Porter. dedicated to the one and only Hunter S Thompson. it won't let you down. but beware, its potent.
