hey guys!
i'm interviewing Tom over twitter for the website I write for Consequence of Sound in anticipation of the upcoming Upstaged webcast directed by Todd Haynes. I just wanted to get a feel for what questions you guys might have for him and band?
Very cool! :)
My question: How did the writing and recording process for the album evolve over time, in terms of sound and feel?
Love your site, check it almost daily
Here's my question:
The band has such a deep synergy on the stage...what are some favorite or notable characteristics you observe yourself and fellow bandmates beginning to portray when you are getting "in the zone?"
Ask about Friends Again pleaaasseee
Ask them if they'd consider donating to disater relief here in AL. We need it. They could come play at Tuscaloosa's new amphitheatre.
BOX SET - WHATS UP?!
If I may, contact Jason at The Steam Engine blog, as we submitted a ton of questions to him for the band that never got answered. I've got 5 great questions submitted and waiting for their take. I know the guys are busy and I'm not bitter, but a lot of forum folks prepared thoughtful questions that are out there.

Second this. I was reading through that thread the other day, and searching for the follow-up thread with the interview... but I guess it never happened.
Ask if there are any plans to eventually make a DVD out of the finished product?

Here's the original thread about this, and some of our questions were posted on that thread: http://www.mymorningjacket.com/forum/index.php?topic=1643.0 (http://www.mymorningjacket.com/forum/index.php?topic=1643.0)
I'd like to know if Tom ever accidentally hit a brown note during one of his bass bombs.
I'd also like to know if LP ever displayed my Tomcat animation around the house during the holidays.

Yes, please ask this and I'd like to know what's his favorite track on Circuital (and why) as well, thanks! :thumbsup:
Thanks a bunch guys, great questions! I'm not sure how/if the questions will be limited but I'll do my best to include as many of them as I can. Tom's interview will start at noon EST today, be sure to check MMJ's twitter for the answers! I'll post a link to the answers here as well.
Transcript of the interview! One word "yeppers."

T5 release= Awesome.

i've already thought about this...the new amphitheatre needs MMJ to break it in right...plus T-town can use every bit of help it can get right now

I've always thought there should be an emoticon for "mind-blowing", something like the Brazil movie poster.

Oh shit! Before I even read that Q&A, after I saw the "yeppers", I had to run upstairs to take a leak, come back down, take a shot, and then proceed...Ahh, thats so fuckin fantastic!
Oh man, that's some great news contained within that brief interview! I'm guessing they need to wait a little while for Circuital to cool down before releasing this T5 stuff -- but sometime within a year I'll bet we'll get our hands on it.
And NYC sometime before the fall?! I smell another roadtrip.
