If I like your post and I have the photos I will let you see them.

holy shit, I’m in that picture!
i need some more st. louis pictures / especially one with the tree infront of him….
also a twelve string guitar picture would be nice or maybe some cornet?? who knows?
this picture is great. you should post a picture from the myrtle beach show because it was their first ever show in sc. And possibly if you took a picture of isaac’s finger being split open and put back together with glue or when they were playing good times waiting for his finger to heal real quick, it was so much fun.
Hey Pat, thanks for all of the great pics you post daily…I really look forward to a new one each day. I would love to see some pics of the Miami show at the Filmore. I can’t tell you how much I enjoyed that show…and the venue rocked…it wasn’t over crowded (I am short so these things matter). I also was at the Miami show several years ago (Isaac mentioned it at the Filmore show) where they played at the ELKS Club!!! It was my first MM show so they could do no wrong by me!!! Anything you are willing to share would be excellent!!! THANKS!!
Dramamine was killer at that show! And you should post pics from the shows just because its the Right thing to do.
Thanks as always!
I think you should post photos from the Cincinnati show, because I spent the evening in a blissful daze, and it would be lovely to be able to revisit that night. =]
-Much Love-
yes sir…well I went to the electric factory in philly 05/03/2007. do you got any pics from that? you played with man man that night…facing the stage i was on the left side…by jonny marr. During song cities made of ashes…a guy with glasses really was punched in the face. He was right behind me…security guards came and everything. i’m not lying….also i made it back stage that night…peloso signed my shoe….i spoke briefly with isaac..and met his son Aden….and an unknow kid took a picture of us…he got my email and eventually sent me pic so i had proof of the experience. twas a good night.
Live in Indianapolis!
Well Pat,
I’ve been a MM listener for 7 years…. I have all the cds.
I finally was able to get to a concert over the summer at Myrtle Beach, SC.
They didn’t let me take a camera in, and I’d love to see some more prints of it to help me remember my first show
Pat, you should post some photos of the Mouse show at the Gorge is Washington. Why? Because the Gorge is fucking beautiful and I know you got some good shots.
Thanks man, keep the awesome pictures coming!
Hey Pat! I was at the 8/17/07 show in Northampton, front row. Despite my passion of you guys, I have only had the privilege of seeing you guys just once (so far!). I could just spot me in the last photo you posted (i think the “ra” from your name was on my shirt!), and would love to see more. It was my birthday the day you posted it, and waking up to see that picture on the site was so meaningful to me and easily made my weekend.
I was recently asked by a friend of why or what about MM I love so much, to which on the spot I thought up “lyrics, music, meaning, intensity, awesomeness!” and I just thought that it was a wonderful phrase and that maybe you guys would too. Can’t wait for the next tour (Come to Connecticut!!!)

Hey Pat, I’d love it if you posted some more pictures from the House of Blues, Myrtle Beach, SC show (June 26, I think?). It was my second Modest Mouse show, and as far as I’ve seen from looking at old setlists, it’s the only show they’ve ever played in South Carolina. I think that’s pretty historic, don’t you? Wouldn’t want documentation of that event to be held secretive.
Plus, there’s the fact that it was just an awesome show in general. I know there’s a lot of SC fans who probably saw Modest Mouse for the first time this year and who would appreciate some more photos from the show.
post pic of the DC show!!!
you should post some pictures from the one at the south lake union naval reserve building cause i some how found out about it day of, was lucky enough to get tickets and skipped my poli sci test to go. plus first show of the we were dead tour ( me thinks)
o ya and that was the “first rock concert” ever there as we were notified. badass.
Thanks for every single photo Pat!
I would love to see some more photos from the shows in Amsterdam and Hamburg. Because it was the greatest time of my life and Modest Mouse had an extremely intensive Stage presence! I’m sure you have a bunch of awesome photos from that shows
~ take care
Hey, I’m just kind of curious if you got any shots of the Vancouver, BC show? It was kind of a short set though. And I don’t remember seeing anyone in the back poking around with a camera.
Anyways, thanks!
Modest Mouse performing in Kansas City, MO/KS with Band of Horses on Friday, August 3, 2007.
Wonderful performance.
Back on 9/26/00 MM played a random, little place called Sher-Wes Gardens outside of Baltimore City. The Shins opened and my friends and I were 5 feet from the band! Amazing stuff, I’ll never forget. Hope you’ve got some pics!
I would like to see more photos of the St. Louis show. This was my son’s first concert ever! He was right up front, we had a blast…
bonnaroo 05 got the bug Birmingham 07 got the fever nashville 07 died and went to mouse heaven. I would love to see photos from any of these.
The Nashville show at the Ryman last year was my first concert ever, of my favorite band ever, and i couldnt get any pictures because cameras werent allowed! Id love to see what i couldnt see from the last row!
More Reno pics please…because Reno’s rock shows are few and far between!!
put up some florida pics please!
Hello Pat, I would love if you posted pictures from the Miami, Myrtle Beach, and Norfolk shows from this summer because I traveled to all three in one week! The picture of Isaac and Eric signing my back in Myrtle Beach would be incredible
photo’s from the Miami show would be great because that was the first show of the tour with out REM and the guys were loving it and jammed out like 26 songs including Dramamine/Life Like Weeds! The Myrtle Beach show rocked because I was front row and Eric smiled at me and waved 
and they jammed out an amazing show. The Norfolk show was incredible because it was the first time DDBB and MM played together live and I was there to witness it! I also got extremely overheated and threw up and the person I was with got punched twice by some very large woman… I got sick during The Good Times Are Killing Me and literally the good times were killing me, and the crowd sang back and forth with Isaac so many times at the end of the song that I will never forget the echoing of all of our voices in unison.. “the goooood times are killing me”
To sum it all up, I had an amazing experience traveling from state to state this summer, meeting you, the guys, and getting to experience the music front row. I love and appreciate all of your guys’ time and dedication. If it weren’t for all of you, my mind would not think the way it does!
Definitely post more from the St. Augustine, FL show…I kept being distracted by so many crazy dancers in the crowd!! Just kidding, nothing can distract me from MM.
Also, today’s my birthday and what’s a greater gift than pictures from the St. Aug show??
yo pat, you do a great job and i know you’ve been following these guys around for years. my first MM concert was at the festival pier in penns landing, philadelphia two summers ago in late august. before i went to that show i enjoyed the music, but it wasn’t until after that show i fell in love with these guys. i remember hearing extended versions of dramamine and tiny cities which completely rocked, they just so happen to be at the top of my list for modest mouse songs. i can’t get pictures from that show anywhere so maybe you can help. that concert changed my life and my overall interpretation of music. great show, great encore.
in addition they toured with love as laughter, which is an awesome band as well..
I think you should definitely post pictures from Cinco de Mayo in 2007. That show was my first Modest Mouse show and also introduced me to Man Man which is now one of my favorite bands. Not to mention there were all kinds of people from the crowd on the stage, although regretfully I was not one of them.
Hey Pat, fantastic shots up lately, although like your instructions I would like to see some more photos from the 6/24 Orlando, Hardrock show. I don’t know if you recall but me and some buddy’s called you out before the show started near the front of the line and introduced ourselves. It would be much appreciated.
Pat, the show at the Norva was incredible. My wife and 16 yr old daughter and 12 yr old son went to NYC to see REM/MM. That show was good but when they played the Norva – GODDAM, that was a show! We live in the Atlantic City NJ area, so we racked up some miles those two weeks between NY and VA. Also, they played satellite skin at the Norva and having listened to it a lot recently, I hope they put it on the upcoming record. So, this one message should count for 4 votes for more Norva photos. Thanx and keep up the excellent work. We love the candid photos at fireworks shops and airports too.
Pat,
I actually met / annoyed you (sorry i was slightly intoxicated) at the Charlottesville show. I would love to see some pics from that show. Thanks for all that you do.
The Rostraver ice garden was epic…more pics plz
i second the rostraver request, cmon pat
ROSTRAVER! ROSTRAVER!
Hey Pat, i think you should post more pics of the Rostraver show at the Ice Gardens. I missed that show because i was camping with some friends and my friends sister could get tickets and all but i couldnt cause i was in Ohio
. im uber bummed because MM will probably never come back near the Pittsburgh area 
. and if MM is still around by the time im able to drive then there is a possibility. Gah!!
I have an even better reason to post more pictures from the Cincinnati show…
It’s my birthday today =]
-Much Love-
bet you don’t have any of them playing in Tallahassee, FL wwaaayy back in ‘04 at the Beta Bar. Man I will never forgive myself for missing them; they played four nights or something ridiculous. It should be marked as the first and last time Modest Mouse will have been in Tallahassee yo.
i would love to see some more pictures of the iowa show because it was stormy and i had tickets but couldn’t afford the fucking gasoline to get there.
You already did put up some pics from Murat Egyptian room in Indianapolis. But I’d like to see some more. I liked the “warm up” and the one of Tom before the show. Loved the show, haggled for my t-shirt, reinforcing the idea that you can haggle anywhere, for anything, with anyone.
TORONTO!!!
That was an awesome show. Totally fell in love with “Here it comes” during that gig.
Hey, great photos of the band Pat, loving the action shots of Isaac!
Got any more from the las vegas show?
I was right up front, that was a hell of a night!
Please post Cincinnati pictures!!!!!
Why? you ask….
My first concert ever.
My favorite band ever: I have all the CDs and some EPs
I was third row
It was one of the best three hours of my life
They opened with Satin in a Coffin
Some dude jumped on stage from an amp on the wall
I bought a shirt
I love your photo blog
Thank you for always posting great photos. Please, post pictures of Modest Mouse’s Performance in Japan!
I wish I could request pictures from a show I’ve been to… not having been to any doesn’t help.
Hey Pat!
I was the Treasure Island Music festival, and it was the first time I had ever seen Modest Mouse, and it was the last show of their tour. I have never been so enthralled in all my life. The most amazing moment of the whole show was at the very end of “Spitting Venom”, when Isaac throws in ” Who needs hell, when we’ve got ourselves, who needs hell, when we’ve got ourselves….what good is hell when we’ve got ourselves?” Such powerful words for such a powerful night.
Any pictures of Modest Mouse tearing up that night would be amazing!
Post some pictures from the Chicago show at the Congress!
Please post pics from rostraver. I drove 5 hours both ways just to see these lovely boys put on a show (i wasn’t disappointed) and the atmosphere was almost perfect. I heard maybe one jeer the whole time, and the 20+ song setlist was more than any mm fan could ask for. Plus I want to see if I made into any pictures : ).
As a side note, not sure if this counts for anything, but I own nearly every modest mouse vinyl ever put into print. I’m just missing the UC Diggin’ Holes 7″.
PLEASE post more photos from the myrtle beach show!!!! Why? Because MM Rocked that night (they do every time they play), MM played a song that we had not heard before and spent hours finding it because like everything else they put out it was awesome!!!!! When is King Rat coming out?!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?!?! SC never had such a wonderful band visit us and hope MM will return! The Atlanta show was too comical (not because of MM)….MM was the BEST band at the mistle to jam!!!! Plus we want to see all the pic you took Pat….we enjoyed watching u shoot pics while the band rocked! We also LOVE your book~silent pictures!
Pat, you are a Modest Mouse fan’s wishes come true. If you have anything of the crowd from the Charlottesville, VA show then you’d be some sort of photographer messiah or something. Preferably any of the crowd right in front of the stage in front of where Johnny was playing. That area was going ABSOLUTELY NUTS the whole time. Fantastic work, by the way!
Pat, any chance you have some Maryland photos? virgin festival, merriweather? Tell the guys we are dying for the new EP!!!!! for serial
Pat, please post pix from the Minneapolis show at the Orpheum on Dec. 3, as well as the Cinco De Mayo show in Atlanta….
Hollywood bowl 2008 with REM please
i havnt seen any pics of that gig yet
Cincinnati would be great Pat. It was my first MM show and totally blew me out of the water. It was the last night a bunch of my buddies from college and I were going to be together because afterwards two left for graduate school and who knows when we’ll get to see each other again. It would be great to have another picture or two to remember our mutual love of the Mouse! Thanks!
post some pics from concert in Poland!!! oops, wait a second, there wasn’t any. but i hope i’ll see some in the future.
The shows in Nashville and Miami! I drove from Miami to Nashville to catch mm for the first time! and then in Miami I waiting like 6 hours to be first in line, only to be directed to the wrong place when they opened the doors, it sucked! Both shows were amazing, Id love to see more pics, thanks!
the tucson, az show from like last december. I bought a ticket and was going to drive down there by myself from phoenix to see the show. at the last minute my friend decided he wanted to go but you guys were all sold out. we made a counterfeit ticket for him and drove 2 hours to tucson not knowing if he could even get in. by some miracle the guy up front never even second guessed it. the show was amazing and at the end I even got one of marr’s picks! it was a really good show and really good memories.
St. Augustine show!!!
My first MM show, it was like a birthday present to myself and I didn’t have a camera with me!
Please!?
You should post pictures from the Charlottesville, VA show! Please?
NASHVILLE NASHVILLE NASHVILLE at the ryman!
PLEASE show some more pics from The House of Blues at Myrtle Beach, SC!!!! It was a great show, but cameras were not allowed in the facility. I was so excited for MM to come to my home state and I met some of the guys and you after the show! Very rememberable and I would love some pics of that night. (I did not bring a camera that night, so all I have is my memory). I would greatly appreciate it!
Hey Pat, got any more egyptians from Indianapolis? From house right? During Broke? Too specific? Dig Silent Pictures, was a gift from my husband. Epic Fugazi , could’ve had more The Shins though.
Hey Pat, the show MM played in Brooklyn last year in McCarren Park Pool was incredible. I’ve never seen anything quite like that show before. Also, it was the last show ever in the pool before they closed it down!
I got to jump onstage and meet Isaac and hug him. A lot of people did the same at the Cox Arena in San
Diego in 2007. It was amazing.
Salutations Pat!
The Shins and Silversun Pickups opened up for Modest Mouse in san diego,ca in 2007!!! Just like Jacob said, I saw people go up and give the members some lovin!
Pleeeeease post em!
You guys are one of not many bands that have not sell outs … keep doing what your doing its great.. the music greated by modest mouse has many meanings of life…. i hope you guys come to LA soon …
More from Charlottesville!!!!! Especially ones of the crowd up front where all the guys were launching each other in the air! That show absolutely blew our minds! Thank you, Pat!
I would like to see more Deer Lake Park (Burnaby, BC) show pictures! As for stories, these dudes infront of me actually snuck in a wedge of cheese. Ha ha, I don’t know; I was laughing.
I would definitely like to see more pictures from Bogarts in Cincinnati! Waiting 5 hours in downtown Cincinnati for the show was great, but it was made even better by stumbling across my favorite band in the alley after the show! =]
Thanks Pat,
Hailey
oh.. i would like to see some pictures from wrocław in poland, but unfortunetly you were here only in my dreams.
of course i’m glad watching every photo even if it makes me sometimes sad because i will never taste something like that.
photos are really stunning. brawo!
San Diego cause i was there homie. No story to tell I would just love to see some pics
POST EM’ ALL!!! But the Nashville, Rothbury, or Atlanta (2007) shows would be nice to see..
More from the Council Bluffs, Iowa show.
I drove 6 1/2 hours from St. Louis to see MM for my 3rd time.
I was going to camp at a campground, that rain storm was incredible. Powerful.
Drank beers in the car until the rain gave up, broke through the fence with the buddy i was with (his first time seeing MM) and made our way throuhg the 4 inch rain puddle on the ground and saw an amazing set which I wish went on until the early morning…
More of those pictures please!
I think you should post pictures from Cincinnati because it was a great show in a fairly small venue, and it gave the whole thing a really personal vibe.
Hope to see some more picures soon! =]
still taking requests, Pat? I’m hoping for more pics from the Ryman show. if I were a greedy man, I might say it’s because we met the guys in the alley before the show and I saw you taking a ton of pics, so I know you’ve got them. or perhaps vain: “we were down by the stage in front of the legendary Mr. Marr. I was wearing a blah blah blah shirt and I’d love to see myself posted on MM’s website.” alas, I’m taking the high road here and asking for more pictures from the Ryman show because it’s the RYMAN – the Mother Church of American Music!!! and don’t we all owe the Ryman a little something extra? Thanks, Pat…I know you’ll do the right thing.
if you’re still taking votes i was deffinately going to put one in for Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.
It was my first time seeing MM and it was amazing. I was in the very front row where there are two pictures i see myself in which is awesome. I had some dude who was basically sweating on me which when i think about it is pretty gross, but didn’t even bother me just thinkin i was at this concert.
Me and some other dude also tried to pick my friend up to crowd surf, which only lasted about two seconds before plunging to the ground.
so anyways, Modest Mouse should definately come back again when on tour next year or somewhere atleast close to south carolina and i’ll definately be there again.
I was at the show in Myrtle and stuck around afterward. I was quite amazed at how cordial and generous the guys were with their time. I still cannot get over how great the show was!!! It6’s amazing to me that it was the first time in SC. Hope you make it back guys!!! I have the luck of being able to go to Raleigh in two weeks. Thanks for being on the road!
