Last night i had a dream i was outside an old video rental store with a whole bunch of people. Eddie Vedder was also there. I made NOTHING of it. We were just sitting around with a guitar, and then suddenly his involvment with mr. YIMMY YAMES hit me! SO we talked about yames for a while and then i had realized that Bermuda Highway would be excellent if Eddie Vedder sang it, especially the "ah AH AH ahss" at the end. So he told me to play it on the guitar because he couldnt. And i couldnt remember. F MY LIFE. Then i woke up.
I live for MMJ. I have never seen them life. Thats my number one wish. For the past two years ive been unable to. Whenever they are in the US, i have been in Europe, whenever they go to Europe, im in the US. Then, They were here, i was here, i bought tickets. He has his accident. FUCK. I have had 3 dreams in which i am AT a concert of theirs waiting for them to come on stage, then i wake up . The last one seemed INCREDIBLY real, and it really tripped me out when i woke up.
Have ya'll had Morning Jacket Jreams??
i have- it was more of a nightmare though.
They were playing in a high school auditorium which was maybe half full, there was garbage everywhere and everyone was talking. No one paid any attention when the band came on stage and they played one song. It lacked enthusiasm- as if the band was done with music and this day had been a long time coming. After that one song they said they would be back for an encore and a screen came down that showed viagra commercials and other sponsored commercials. I went out to get a drink- disappointed to see my favorite band in such a state and angry at the other "fans" when i got back into the auditorium some guy came out and said the show was over and they started cleaning up. I was incredibly sad and sat in the front row in shock staring at the stage as everyone else walked by- seemingly uninterested at what happened.
I was in a mixed state of sadness and relief when i woke up
I guess that when you love something so much, its natural to fear for its survival

your dreams sound really frustrating! ugh i can't imagine not seeing them- don't worry though, you will keep yer head up
When are you coming back to the US Paauwe? (I'm just trying to figure out when the band is going to start their next European tour.) ;)
i had one few months ago where they played at my family's ranch house. our deck is on a a cliff over a field in the middle of the woods. a huge crowd is down in the field, and the guys are jamming on the deck. 4 hour set. awesome.

Jim Slowly Starts To Levitate off Stage...
My Jim James dream was really unfortunate.
I was trying to escape Hurricane Katrina: Redux with some of my pals. It got all "Grapes of Wrath", and we ended up in some valley in Colorado where it started snowing. All the people camped out there left, and Jim was the only one still there. I asked Jim for a ride, and he said no.
Fuck you, subconscious. Jim James would give a person a ride if they needed it.
I had a dream about Carl playing for me, which was incredible. It wasn't sexual or anything, he simply played for me and I listened. It was fantastic.
Also, last week I didn't dream of the boys, but something similar. News came out that they were playing a bunch of shows, but in really random places and at middle of nowhere outdoor venues. I was scrambling to get to as many shows as possible and I was consulting with people from the forum -- don't remember anyone specifically, but our excitement was overwhelming.
MMJ was in concert. The stage lights would go low for a while and then high in a continuous sequential pattern. JJ would look out of the corner of his widely opened eyes each time the stage lights went to high and each time..... there was another band on stage....The lights flashed and it was Cream with Jack Bruce on his left...the lights flashed and then it was the Yes Group with Steve Howe on his right...then again it was Lynyrd Skynyrd and .38 Special and again it was Allman Brothers...and then The Who and then suddenly JJ was not himself...he was Neil Young! The dream had a happy ending where MMJ was again restored to bring us all the best of what has happened in music in the past but with a totally unique sound that MMJ can claim as their own creation.
I was driving around in an old beat up :D :Dcountry squire station wagon with the fellas....for some reason we stopped of at jim's mom's house to play football in the yard......as we were about to leave, being a girl and all, i had to go inside to "freshen" up...needless to say i was rummaging through various drawers/closets etc...i remember a pile of towels...anyway, his mom caught me in the act and i ran out to the car, all flushed and embarrassed....and we took off.....then i woke up with the absolute realization that I AM OBSESSED!

Awesome!
Jim was doing a show at Macy's along with Neko Case and some other cool people. His stage was by the makeup counter and after the show I thought I'd go up and say hello, but the stage suddenly went from being a stage to a staircase that didn't really lead anywhere. I walked up the staircase and I found him sitting there by himself with luggage around him. So we just sat there with the lugage; on the staircase that led nowhere and hung out. It was fun.
I had my first My Morning Jacket Jream ever last night.
My band had just finished preforming and we got off stage, and backstage, Jim James is there and he commends us for an awesome performance, except he's noticibly sad, and crying, because the critics didn't like his new album, so I comfort him, saying "Critics is losers" Jim, feeling better, and inspired, invites us to play with MMJ so we open for them and collectively play Steam Engine at one point, and I woke up and was like "whoa."
Usually my dreams just consist of Jim.. I had like 4 of them before the NYE show. I kept asking him to play The Bear for me at the NYE show and he said he definitely would. He also played it in my dream for just me and it was awesome. Then of course as we all know...they didn't play it and I had a dream after the show asking him why he promised me he would and he didn't and he apologized. Haha. Weird. I know.
I've had a few, but the most recent one was really long and lucid. They played in my garage, I remember a particularly exceptional Dondante. All my close friends were there and we all hung out afterwards. I woke up in a great mood which lasted the rest of the day. 8-)
I have had a number of dreams about the band, none of which I remember very well. The one I remember most is sitting in someone's shitty apartment (Jim's, if I remember correctly), and I was just hanging out with the guys, and we were listening to music on the stereo. Nice and vague. My favorite dream, though, is one my wife had about making out with Carl to get us tickets and backstage passes.
I would be totally cool with it if she actually did that and it worked.
Come to think of it, I'd be cool with it if she did that and it didn't work. ;)

In my dream Dan Auerbach was playing guitar for Jim James and when he was done he threw his guitar about 100 yards into a field. :D :D :D

No ;D Dan was just wailing on guitar with Jim watching not on a stage or at a show, Dan was just playing for Jim in some field like an audition.
Once I dreamt that my friends and me were staying in an old converted barn, waiting for a Pearl Jam show the next day. The boys were staying in the room below and us girls were up top. JJ was there (for some unknown reason) and we sat around, drank and sang with Jim for a bit, and oddly, it just felt normal for everyone. We sang Gideon and Nashville to Kentucky and even my non MMJ fan friends knew all the words... It became late and Jim insisted that he was to stay in the girls room with us. Of course, we didn't argue but we did ask why... he simply placed his guitar on the sofa, turned to my friend and said in a very camp voice "well, the boys won't be doing their nails pink, will they?" I then woke up...
I really don't know why I dreamt that :-[

That's perfect! :)
I love Jacket dreams! I have had a few too. Love to read about others too. In mine, I was hanging with them in Louisville at some old gas station like place. It was after a show and we were being show around by the band! Next thing I knew we were all on bicycles riding through town. It inspired me to make 3 MMJ compilation disks called - aptly enough "Jacket Dreams," I II and III of course. :-*
I had this crazy one that involved Jim James and the destruction of my dreams in a painful manner.
So, picture this, my band, getting ready to play in This Tent at Bonnaroo, following Jim James doing a solo thingy, then as we do the sound check....
Here's the chain of events:
1. My bass is all out of tune, so I go and tune it
2. I can't find a tuner, and our guitarist's is out of batteries
3. JIM JAMES hands me a tuner!
4. I can't get my bass tuned, the E string keeps slipping out of tune
5. I go and tighten the tuning nuts on my bass
6. The D string EXPLODES off my bass!
7. Good thing I have a backup!
8. We get tuned and we get readyto play our first song
9. We play about 10 seconds into it, and our guitarist breaks one of his strings, and the guitar disintegrates....
10. It started raining, and The crowd that had formed to see us had by then been reduced to just two, my friend Dan, and Jim James.
11. Jim James says "wummawoobawbooo" or some similar incoherent jibberish
12. Wake up time!

Ok, first CARL dream ever last night! Whew, it was a good one, from what I recall. He had just finished the Fallon set, and was bursting with confidence and joy! He was also extremely flirtatious, and had his lanky arm draped around me as he kept fluffing his hair. Oh my, very dreamy indeed. I'm standing on Carl's side from now on :D :D :D
I had a dream that My Morning Jacket was playing Sweet Home Alabama and I was booing them because I thought no one could do it better than Skynyrd. Why I was booing them I have no idea, the idea of booing them is just... forget it I don't even want to think what was going through my mind.
Fuck you, subconscious. Jim James would give a person a ride if they needed it.
That made me laugh ;D

man you had the chance to see eddie cover jim and you couldn't remember it.... ya blew it
So last night in my dream we were all at some unnamed festival watching the boys play from the rail. Halfway through Steam Engine, they stopped, walked off stage, and the lights came up. (Talk about torture.) We're all standing around going, "What the hell? Is something wrong?" Then we see them ride away from the back of the stage in a white van. One of the stage guys looks down at us and goes, "Yeah...there's this mini-golf place in town they like to go to." I was standing next to Crispy and he looks at me, shrugs his shoulders and says, "Well, they like their recreation, I suppose." And he walks away.
1) If you've ever met Crispy, this would not be his reaction.
2) I woke up laughing my ass off.
;D

HAHAHA! I don't know, I do like my recreation too and might be pretty sympathetic...I mean, we are talking about mini-golf here. ;D
In anticipation of their show at the CMAC last August I had a dream that they went on stage, somebody shot Jim, and he died. Right in front of my eyes. I was crying in my dream, and felt like crying when I woke up. Thank god I'm not like Anakin Skywalker... My bad dreams don't come true (Star Wars reference)
Haha that's sweet, glad to know I'm not the only one who has had a "Jream"...
In my jream I was just at a really cool made up ampitheater venue and was having a dialogue (not a monologue for the first time) with Jim and he was playing everything I requested. Pretty awesome. I have had several jreams now I wonder if it has anything to do with the state of mind I find myself in sometimes at their shows.
here we go again.........
last night, before bed time, we were discussing the REMOTE remote remote remote possibility of going to London in November, and getting tix for the show at the Roundhouse. I was reading about the Roundhouse, and this is the description: From modest Victorian beginnings – beginning life in 1846 as a steam-engine repair shed – to legendary cultural venue, the Roundhouse has an enviable heritage. The Grade II* listed building is now home to a bold and exciting programme of live music, theatre, dance, circus, installations and new media.
Again, remote. Upon further discussion, we are thinking about London in Springtime.....Anyhoo, here's the dream:
I am in London with my parents (bob is nowhere to be found). We are walking through London and happen upon the Roundhouse. We find our way through the pub downstairs, which takes us to an elevator door, which only opens halfway. The three of us squeeze into the elevator, which takes us to the roof, where the performance area is. Mind you, there is no band, we are simply checking the venue out. The door opens only halfway, so I must leap out onto the roof, leaving my parents in the tiny tin can of an elevator. It was a mossy and muddy green up there, with no fencing or anything to keep one from falling off the roof....for some reason, these things made me decide it was not a suitable venue for me to see the band...so we left, and that was that.
Weird....CAN'T WAIT TIL FRIDAY!
Ok, dreamtime again.....
we were in a really small loungey place, the band was onstage, we were super close. they did one song, and then the boys left the stage except for jim. he started playing golden as they were all exiting the stage and started having a panic attack. so, i went up on the stage, calmed him down, held his hands, told him everything would be ok :) and then he gave me a smooch......
and then my 8 y.o. daughter woke me up :( :( :(
I am just going to take over this thread completely! I especially love it because the title says Jreams...because that's the perfect way to capture the essence of a Jacket Dream.
Anyhoo, here is last night's fun dream!
We are sitting in the (R) orchestra pit (similar to the Mann), and the band comes on. Again, they play one song, and somehow I manage to make my way backstage during this song.
While backstage, I meet vespachick and her baby, MMJ. vespa, who i haven't met before in person, so I didn't really know who it was, hands me her adorable bundle of joy to hold for her, while she wanders around the cavernous backstage area. As I am playing with little MMJ, I realize that Jim has made his way off of the stage, and into MY seat. Unfortunately, Baby MMJ does not have her usual earphones on, so I feel it is much safer for her little ears to stay backstage, thereby making it impossible for me to go back to my seat, and ya know, sit on Jim's lap! I am looking around in a panic for vespa, when finally, after about 3 songs, she returns. I hand MMJ back, dash out to the pit, only to find that there is now a table set up where the seats used to be. Maggie and Ky are there, drinking pints, but Jim is back on stage. Maggie informs be that the person whose baby I was holding was not vespa's. Before we could unfold the mystery of who this person was, the alarm began blaring away!
Ahhh, i love this band and all of you ;D ;D ;D

Tweeted this last month after having my first MMJ dream...
"Jim James, now i know you! Cat meowing outside just woke me up out of my first MMJ dream -At CVS with a friend having her license plate made to read "move on." I tell her she should have it read, "IT MOVES,"and then proceed to tell her who MMJ is. While doing so, all of a sudden the band is standing in line behind us. I'm ecstatic. I tell Jim James how great they are, and he takes off his hat and starts talking to me about it. He's as personable as can be. Enter reality and meowing cat. If I never get to personally meet MMJ, at least I know who they are. Can't go wrong! Best wake up call you'll ever receive! Listen! :)"
