I'd venture to say that the night three setlist is one of the greatest I've ever seen.

So. Much. Goodness.

It looks like they saved the best for last!  Makes me even more hopeful I can score some 3 day passes to PC this morning...  :thumbsup:

Yeah the main set is pretty damn great, but  I'd personally take either of the first two nights encores over night three's encore though.

Looking at these three shows as a whole, I'm happy for those that managed to get to all three, and can't wait for the Port Chester three night run. I'd take the songs selected for LA in PC in a heartbeat.

Wow!! The three greatest night of music I have ever experienced. I only did a few videos, but I noticed they all had Jim in the poncho. Here is one from the final show. Zack Galifinakis showed up in the VIP pit where the mixing board was, about 10 seconds before the lights went out to start the show. He is very short. More comments and thanks to follow, for it is bedtime. My Morning Jacket Touch Me pt 1
Awesome!  High praise from such a veteran of rock shows.  They dug pretty deep.  It's gonna be a long 3 months until Port Chester :cool:

Dancefloors smoked.


the billy ocean tune was....an interesting choice.

curtis mayfield's move on up was insane.

So how were they night 3, i mean, did Jim maintain the silence and keep chuggin?  Personally, I think their best shows come when they are all business.  I saw a few shows this summer where they really got goofy on stage and it was still a fun time but it's just different when they have that somber, haunting thing going. 

Night 1 (the middle setlist) really does it for me..  War Begun, Strangulation, I Will Sing.  I don't care how many times i hear them, always amazing.

wow!  Have the played All Night Long anywhere other than NYE at the Fillmore in 2006 and Terminal 5?  Those are the only times I've heard it.  I don't necessarily follow the setlists too much though.

99.9% sure it hasn't been played since NYE 06. 

Also Never Tear Us Apart had been like 9-10 years I think before the RR bust out...

What a run indeed. I had to miss night 2, but still feel I got my fix.
Night 1 was prob my fav MMJ to date. Night 3 was no light weight either

what a run!  i'm beat

Basically the whole week was shot for me (in the best possible way!), I thought I might be able to get back to 'normal' today, but it's nearly 10am, been awake for a couple hours, and I can already feel it's going to take all weekend to recuperate.

RIDICULOUS RUN!  They rule.  I was blown away even though i've seen them a bunch before.
I had so much fun.  Today I feel like sweetpickles!


THANK YOU MMJ!!!!!!!!!!!!!

this type of stuff gets me even more pumped for the East Coast 3-nighter in December.

It was played at T5, but I think that's it, just 3 times to date.

BShep: My Morning Jacket "I Will Sing You Songs" live @ The Wiltern 9/11/12

Check out this video from the first night, especially the end (around 6:00). Jim gets up close and personal. Pretty cool.

i think this may be the greatest homemade Jacket video ever.
i concur, that was soooo different, sooooo cool.  i'm soooo envious.

iwsys is my holy grail.....still haven't caught it live, but i continue to enjoy the quest.

so what was the most popular song not played?   In case that doesn't make sense, what song is most surprising to be left off the lists?

HOLY CRAP! That's some crafty camera work...
Give me a butt load of reverb on this one - just pile it on.
