Phenomenal article, minus the Almost Famous quote and connections:
"They may avoid rock's clichéd excesses, but in a sense, My Morning Jacket is Stillwater, the fictional band from Almost Famous, and their story may well be "a think piece about a mid-level band struggling with their own limitations in the harsh face of stardom." I tell the band this and we all laugh, but I'm only half kidding."

Well worth the read, nonetheless...

Bump.   I love this article.  It's old (around the release of Z) but I think it says a lot.

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