Q:  Do you guys like to jam on covers during rehearsals?

A:  We did a Pretenders song for a VH1 special.  And we play a pretty good version of Joy Division's "Transmission."  When I heard that My Morning Jacket and Eddie Vedder did the Band song "It Makes No Difference," I literally wanted to die.  My Morning Jacket always do stuff right before we get a chance to.  I was like, "Damn it, they got us again!"  Somebody suggested we do "Sweet Home Alabama" at the Garden - I told them to fuck off.

That's because Jim uses the force to fuck with everyone else's gigs
Hooked on four like one, two, three

I think it's neat that My Morning Jacket and Kings of Leon are often times not associated at all in most people's minds, but for someone like me, I always think of them as The Beatles and The Stones for our generation.  I think the Kings admire the Jacket a little more-so though...as it should be.  

Thanks for posting.

Caleb's brother Nathan has said that jacket is one of his favorite bands.  I also chatted with Nathan and their cousin Nacho at Bonnaroo last year about how they were really pissed they missed the epic show the night before.
IT'S ALL FUCKIN' CHEESE!!

They got you again?  You're not even in the same league, dude.  Quite possibly not even playing the same game.

KOL is a pretty damned good band, and put on a great live show, but I concur that they are not even in the same league as MMJ.
