I'm digging, digging deep in myself, but who needs a shovel when you have a little boy like mine.

Hello everyone,

My name is Ian. I'm new to the forum. I figured this would be the best spot to say hello and share my langerado experience and some pictures with you.

Here's a few things to give you some insight into my little corner of the world:

1) I fvcking LOVE my morning jacket.
2) I've seen them twice live. New Orleans-House of Blues-11/15/06 and Langerado-3/10/07.
3) I'm not a weirdo (inasmuch as any of us can be free of that characteristic).
4) I do listen to bands other than mmj (i.e. pink floyd, galactic, talking heads, daft punk), just not as much ; )
5) Oh yeah, I love South Park too.

We left Thursday afternoon at 4pm CST from Oxford, MS.  Drove through the night and got to Sunrise, FL around 10am EST, so I guess that's a 17 hour drive.  Caught Assembly of Dust and Tea Leaf Green, they were neato, but we were still getting acclimated to our new surroundings.  Saw all of galactic and they never disappoint.  Bela Fleck and company put on an extremely funky show. I'll be sure to download it once it's up.  They played several songs from the new album and I was very impressed. Walked past moe. but they weren't playing "recreational chemistry" so I didn't really stop. Went to see sts9 in the swamp tent. Ate some intense fungus and came to this conclusion: they put on a good show and make decent cd's, but it's not much of a concert. As an electronic musician, I have a hard time distinguishing between what they're actually playing and what they're simply triggering in Ableton Live. As a guitar player, I'm unimpressed by the repetitive guitar riffs (though I really like moon socket).  They also tend to bring out the dirtiest of the wookies.

Saturday I had a one track mind. Saw MM&W but I had just seen them at the New Daisy in Memphis the week before.  They finished at 7pm and we went to the front to claim some space. I was with 10 of my friends (all of whom made the same drive to be there) and we all ate the same paper we got from these kids at P-groove. THANK YOU WHEREVER YOU ARE!!!  Incredible.  Just like the show.

We were about 15-20 ft from the stage in the center. Got to hold on to the blow-up doll a good bit. I think she had a crush on me, but I hear she's a slut. Oh well. When the lights weren't invading my brain, this is exactly what I saw:



A similarly blurry pic of Jim:



I look forward to getting to know you all. You're clearly part of the secret club ; )

Langerado a real treat for music fans


My Morning Jacket, Widespread Panic headlined festival
By Elliot A. Knight

...

"The pinnacle of the festival was My Morning Jacket's Saturday evening performance. If you haven't listened to these guys, please do so immediately. If you've already heard them but haven't seen them live, do that as soon as possible as well."

"Frontman Jim James is one of the most energetic performers I have ever seen and can go straight from jumping and head banging around the stage during an intense jam into a melodic slow tune with perfect precision. James' voice is absolutely beautiful and distinct and provides the ideal balance to the dynamic band."

...
If you're lucky, MMJ will fill the void you didn't even know you ever had. If you're luckier, you'll get to see them live.
