WORK WORK WORK..AND MMJ.


Best friends: Sydney, Krista, Bobo [Kristi]
c. summer 2011, Hangout Music Festival
THE SET LIST FROM MY MORNING JACKET
our all time favorite band



Here's to you Yim, Tommy, Patrick & Carl:

You're Off The Record
 



NPR music quotes:

"It won't take long for Circuital, due out May 31, to allay any fears. Without losing the playfulness of its predecessors — the chugging "Holdin' On To Black Metal" lives up to its title — My Morning Jacket stays far more focused on room-filling rock majesty. The album opens, ostentatiously enough, with "Victory Dance," which billows beautifully into the stuff encores are made of. From there, it's on to a suitably ambitious array of rock epics (like the seven-minute title track) and grand ballads ("Wonderful," "Movin' Away") that find James continuing to channel George Harrison as best he can."

To check out the full album before it's official release next week, see: http://www.npr.org/2011/05/22/136462209/first-listen-my-morning-jacket-circuital
[As of now, I will be flying solo to see them at the Pantages Theater this June. Fingers crossed I run into someone in LA who also has these plans.]
