Whats with the Name??

[AlwxanderD10]

Hey does anybody know where they came up with the name my morning jacket is it just something random?? :(  :-?

Jim found a jacket in the wreckage of a burned down building with MMJ on it. Or so I have read.

Go to wikipedia, supposedly a burned down pub that jim was fond of is where the MMJ jacket was found.

I still think it's a reference to wearing a condom with morning wood.

hey tracy,  u make my day. so glad to know i'm not the only one to think that. listen to the early dutch interviews - no burning pub stories just a bit of fluster.

hahahaha on the morning wood idea
no apparently its about a bar that burnt down that jim really liked and he found a jacket with the letters MMJ on it somewhere in the remains
least thats what i heard

[the sun and moon]

Jim found a jacket with the initials MMJ in the remnants of an old burned down bar he used to go to where god/the spiritual entities told him they stood for my morning jacket.

....because everyone knows we've gotta tell the guy five times before he gets it.  ;)

I think he just made it up, kind of like that story about a burned down house.  Good one, Jim!   ;)
