Jack Johnson - have any of you guys seen his concert yet?

UGAplaya · 03-07-2008

Tickets go on sale tomorrow for his Atlanta show and I plan to buy them. I really love his music, kind of beachy - easy going music. Just wondering if any of you have seen him yet.

I am obsessed with his music, he just started doing shows in the US, they used to only be in Hawaii.

I would love to see him live.

We very much like him too...he will have a show in Raleigh in August...

We are buying JT tickets today for the end of May!

I love Jack Johnson.

I haven't been fortunate enough to see him though. I am thinking his show might be a little on the boring side, if you are into the light shows/pyrotechnics kind of concert, but his music is great, so who cares?

We had some people over for dinner-eventually someone asked about the music-kind of embarrassing to say, it's The Curious George soundtrack.

I love Jack Johnson too!! Great mellow music...real beach vibe....Love him! Haven't seen him yet but he hasn't toured around here that I know of.

I've seen him a few times. He's great, but I've had problems hearing him because he is so mellow. I've seen him at 2 music festvals, which is kinda normal not to hear so good if you aren't close, cuz so many people are just standing around talking, but I also saw him at a small venue in Chicago that the same thing was happening. I don't know if people are always talking at concerts, but I didnt notice if music was loud rock, but it was hard to hear him. It was really disappointing and I wanted to hit everyone around me. I really want to see him this year in WI or IN, but I'm worried I'll be disappointed that everyone around me will ruin it for me again, can't make up my mind on getting tickets or not. He is awesome tho!

I love me some 'banana pancakes...' :-)

I saw him first when he was opening for Ben Harper in 2000. I almost missed him, as I had never heard of him and was just going to see Ben Harper. Man was I floored to hear him as we walked towards the stage. I've been hooked since. The Brushfire Fairytales album can relax me from almost any mood.

Definitely check out his show. If you're still curious, he released a live DVD a couple years ago that really illustrates what his shows are like. You think you like his recorded stuff...wait until you hear it live....

Huge Fan....Huge!!!

I Did see G.Love and the Sauce with Tristan Prettyman opening for Him last week!!!

TJ-

He is coming to Alpine Valley at Alpine Valley in June.

Oh, I just googled Illinois City. Guess it would be to far away!

I am also a new fan. I have been listening to him now for about a year and am really enjoying all of his music. I do agree with one of the posters, no matter what my mood, I can always get into some J.J.
