Ok, I laughed...

Ha!  Great idea Kory! I've noticed that the search engine isn't as good since we moved over to the new forum.  or at least I haven't figured out how to use it as well as the previous one.

It'd be cool if we could wiki the FAQ somehow at least until it's created.

I think we should all take turns making up completely false statements for the answer section of our FAQ.

Q. What is that white device that Jim plays on his lap sometimes?

A. Well, in short it's a computer.  It has a wireless connection that links up with some microphones on a distant planet where space aliens (that long ago abducted Jim James and informed him to name his band My Morning Jacket) pipe in ideas and random thoughts about the nature of the cosmos and our place inside it.  These ideas are then filtered through the computer which in turn translates the alien language into sounds that Jim is able to decipher, a sort of Morris code if you will.....so in essence it's a computer but then again it's also a phone.  You might think of it like this, whenever you see Jim playing the computer in concert.......He's really just checking his e-mail.

When you open it there should just be a link to this thread, or the one about Jim James being dead.

DEFINITELY,

My Morning Jacket is listed in Wikpedia under "Omnichords in popular music"

An Omnichord is an electronic musical instrument manufactured by the Suzuki Musical Instrument Corporation. It typically features a touch plate and numerous chord buttons.

If this happens it should be called "an FAQ" in honor of this thread.

What My Morning Jacket Means...to me:

I see Jim James very connected to nature.  We can see this with his lyrics, song titles, his set design, his dedication to animals etc...I also see he is very connected to love and women and a lot of his lyrics seem to take place in the morning...waking up next to a woman, as the sun rises...the album name is At Dawn.  

I have this wonderful visual of Jim James waking up as the sun is rising, throwing on his Morning Jacket and sitting in nature and writing songs as he thinks of all the wonderful women in his life.  Personally I dont want to know what My Morning Jacket means in reality or to Jim, cause it means sooo much to me as it is.  

Also I think it's more of his sur name rather than his Band name...like it's his alter ego name...

What does it mean to everyone else????
God damn those shaky knees.
