I’m kind of disappointed that you’re doing “The Astral Factor” in Northampton, MA. We saw you in Connecticut at the Bushnell last year and you did that there at your second show. Is there any way you can do another movie that those of us in this general area who went to your Connecticut show(s) haven’t already seen?

Still no NYC dates, so I bit the bullet & got tickets to the final show at the Keswick. Should be a blast, as always!

I’m not sure if the weather will allow me to see the Philadelphia show, so I’m using up some of my air miles and going to the Milwaukee show.
And I’ll be at the Colonial Theater for Blobfest tomorrow. While I’m there, I’ll pester them about booking CT some time this fall. I’ve already started lobbying NJ venues about this.

Katie and I’ll be at the Concord and Northampton shows.
We were going to make a long trip out of it to see the Boston show too, but
(a) that’s a repeat of one of the Concord movies, and
(b) the Wilbur Theater was a major negative to an otherwise stellar time watching Rattlers (Online ticket system had us front-and-center; when we got there they had rearranged things so we ended up in the corner inches from a radiator which was set somewhere between 100 degrees and the temperature of the Sun. When the show was over, my wife went to the restroom, and was then not allowed to get in the signing line, but forced out onto the street by incredibly rude staff…)

Got tickets to the Nov 1st, 2nd & 3rd CT shows!!! :D I’m really excited to finally see THE ASTRAL FACTOR and THE DOLL SQUAD!
I was hoping they’d do SAMSON AND THE SEVEN MIRACLES again, but hopefully that one will end up on DVD at some point…

I’ve heard their last performance will take place on a rooftop with Billy Preston on keyboards.

Are they gonna get Phil Spector to do the producing?
I know, I know, just let it be.
Everybody’s got something to hide except me and trickeymutha.

Snagged a ticket for the final show. I’ve seen them do “Wasp Woman” before, but I haven’t seen “The Doll Squad,” so that’ll be a treat.

It’s been FOREVER since either CT or RT have put a new DVD out! The hell????
Correct me if I’m wrong but I thought CT were going to stop touring, not stop making DVDs. Yes? No?

#13 Steve> The plan for CT is to stop all activities. This really is it for the time being. Remember they expressed their preference against studio DVD’s some time ago and stopped doing them. Short term all we can hope for is a handful of final live DVD’s.
Long term you just never know. I hope they reunite sometime down the road again but my guess (strictly a guess) is it would be a minimum five years before that would happen.

Let’s not loose sight of the fact the creative people move on to other things. Be glad we’ve had all that we’ve had and be glad that Mike, Kevin and
Bill we be doing what they do to keep bad movies/shorts in line.
As far as #1 goes I’d like to say it would be cool if they could change the movie they’re doing. But what about all the other fans that are going and haven’t seen these other movies yet. I have Wasp Woman on DVD and would love to see it live. And we’re already going to the shows on the 2nd. and 3rd. and we’re taking Friday and Monday off from work to have a big CT WILD WEEKEND and the N.H. shows would involve taking Thursday off and I have only so many vacation days I can use.

Any chance of a stop in Seattle? If there’s nothing in the works yet, maybe I can put the feelers out

Went to Blobfest today and spoke to one of the theater volunteers. She said she’d pass along my suggestion; she figured they’d get a good turnout for CT or Joel’s own show.

And as always, thanks for ignoring the Rockies. Would have been such a shame to go somewhere new, like Denver, for your final tour.

Got my tickets Monday for Keswick show and we are excited. Surprised to see that as long as tickets had been on sale that there were such good seats left.

#20 Please say what you mean. Don’t hold back. Let it all out. Let your feelings (nothing more than feelings) bubble forth like molten lava.
Pop the puss out like a big zit. Flush out the colon. You’ll fell better in the end.

Didn’t George Thorogood do a 50/50 tour in the 80’s ?
Hey folks at CT there’s still time to put that together. 50 shows 50 nights, that way people would have a chance to see a show.

Nice. The only place close to me is a six hour drive. And I am not spending the money for a motel, driving all that way just to see them. At least RiffTrax does it right.
Anyway I think I am done with everything MST3K. Too many delta bravo fans have taken the fun out of it. It was fun while it lasted. 8-)

@22 – They already did a final tour show in Michigan a few months ago at the Royal Oak Music Theater.

I missed the VA show. I’m desperately hoping they release a couple of last live show DVDs. Please. :-(

In previous years my attempts to find a date to go to CT with me. Will it be any different this year? I have 5 months (well, 3 days less than 5 months) to find one.
I’m going to miss CT, it’s been almost an annual ritual (they skipped visiting St. Louis one year)

I am so happy they’re coming to SF, I can’t even form coherent hot air balloons and I’m forgetting amoebas.
I was *theeese* close to buying a plane ticket east to make it to a show, but driving five hours is much more reasonable. I may end up having to go on my own, but it’ll be worth it.
