Jack's Mannequin Reunite for 'Everything in Transit' 10th Anniversary Tour
Three years after disbanding, Jack’s Mannequin is reforming to celebrate the 10-year anniversary of their debut album, Everything in Transit.
“I will be the first to admit, I prefer keeping my focus in the present, but I cannot deny Transit’s place in my life and the lives of my fans,” Andrew McMahon, previously the frontman of Something Corporate, writes on his website. Scarcely hidden between the lines is the fact that McMahon was diagnosed with leukemia at age 22, on the day the album was completed. Shortly after, a stem-cell transplant from his sister helped him toward a full recovery.
Everything in Transit featured the singles “The Mixed Tape” and “Dark Blue.” Those tunes, along with “Bruised,” “La La Lie,” “Holiday from Real” and “I’m Ready” became live staples for the band.
"As I said so many years ago," McMahon writes in his announcement, "this is a story, and it will be performed as such, in its original running order from start to finish." The band's third and final album—unless this reunion sparks something—was 2011's People and Things.
