Hello

[foomex]

Hi, didn't see any intro threads (didn't made a full search tho).

Just wanted to say hi, I signed up to find luck for the Boston show, still no luck.
I'm a beginner fan, don't own any records, but have downloaded a fistful of songs since "It Still Moves", and own Okonokos. Looking to get the whole discog starting with Circuital.

I got into them -I think- because Dave Grohl once mentioned them, recommended them, or maybe MMJ opened for Foos? Not sure, but I know it was Foo induced for me.

Yeah, I'm an intense Foo fan and... well that's it, just wanted to say hi. Oh, and I'm from Mexico

Heya foomex, welcome, and I think the thread you were looking for was this one: http://www.mymorningjacket.com/forum/index.php?topic=1634.msg261628#new

I can thank Dave Grohl for introducing me to MMJ too -- here's my entry in that thread poking a little fun about it:

   I first discovered Y.Y from "I'm not there yet". The emotions that his voice struck in me where incomparable to anything before, I was blown away. I immediately left the theater and walked into Virgin to by the soundtrack... From that point on it was history; I became a huge fan of MMG and of course of the man (Yim Yames). I might have a small crush on Yim Yames...OK maybe a big one.

I first heard about My Morning Gasket when I was thumbing through the latest issue of Gearboy back in 2004, and read a remark from Dave Grill  in a poll of famous mechanics about new parts they had been enjoying lately. He said something like "My Morning Gasket makes some really great seals for when you're hungover," and I was intrigued. So I checked out some of their stuff that I found on the internet like The Tennessee Tire, Chocolate and Grease, It Still Drives, and I was hooked. It wasn't long before everything I could find at Napa was in my own grimy paws.

So glad I finally found this thread!

::) ;) ::)

Hey there kydiddle and crispy.
I found what PERHAPS made me look into them. Back from 2002, last question on the first page.

Loder: What band have you seen recently, maybe live, that you thought, well, maybe they'll be all right and they knocked you out?

Grohl: My Morning Jacket. ... I think they're from Tennessee or something like that. It's a great record.

:D
