Erykah Badu to Join My Morning Jacket for Unstaged Performance
Erykah Badu and actress Rachel Dratch will join My Morning Jacket for its Unstaged performance at Louisville KY's Palace Theater on Tuesday, May 31. The performance coincides with the release of the band's new album, Circuital and will be live-streamed at 9:00PM ET / 6:00PM PT at www.youtube.com/mymorningjacketVEVO (http://www.youtube.com/mymorningjacketVEVO) and on mobile devices via VEVO and YouTube apps for iPhone, iPod touch, iPad and Android. The performance will be captured by award-winning filmmaker Todd Haynes ( Mildred Pierce , I'm Not There , Far From Heaven).
My Morning Jacket has covered Badu's "Tyrone" since 2000. The hip-hop diva even joined the group onstage for a version of the song at Dallas, TX's Palladium Ballroom in 2008.
HOLY SHIT THIS BETTER BE REAL
TYRONE!!!!
sweeeeeeeeet
Aw shit!
Amazing news. I feel like everything new that I find out about what MMJ are doing just gets better and better.
WOW! What a night next Tuesday will be.
MMJ. Badu. Dratch. One of these is not like the others. One of these does not belong.

maybe some sort of skit...
Noice! I wish this show was on monday instead of tuesday but oh well. WTF is Rachel Dratch doing at this party?!
Who is Rachel Dratch?
Dratch was on SNL. The other half of the Lovers skit with Will Ferrell.
Since this is on YouTube I'm wondering if I can watch it on my Apple TV hd style.
This is all great news. But did you guys see the other bit of the press release? This "Vote for a Song" business? I must find where to do this.
If we all band together, we can make It's About Twilight Now happen.
Here is the full press release I am referring to by the way:

Someone should record the audio/video of this stream... :thumbsup:
This show keeps getting more interesting by the minute. :thumbsup:

Thanks for keeping me from having to Google her. Even though I've always severly felt a bit repelled by Erykah Badu, I'm going into this with an open mind, open ears and an open heart. If MMJ is hosting the party, then I'm just a very appreciative guest. I'm sure it's going to be magnificent.
I think you better call tyrone!
booooooooooring. Gimmie some news I actually care about.
Good gawd! :D What's not to like about an attractive r&b artist? Or Dratch? I'd give my left testi to make this show! ;D :thumbsup:
Shit just got real.

OH! I am soooo in! Thanks for this link. :dankk2: So much for me to learn... so much here. I Love this place.
As for Rachel Dratch, I wasn't really sure what to expect beyond music and an interactive experience, but it's seemingly moving to a level I never expected. I feel so lucky and pivaledged for this to be my first Jacket show. :thumbsup:

I would suggest bringing a sewing kit with you to the show. You're going to need it to stitch your head back together after seeing a Tyrone w/ Badu!! Man, are you in for a treat at your 1st show :D
The poster from the show looks completely badass.... and apparently if you Tweet, you can be in it too?

I think the Rachel Dratch thing makes perfect sense...
Have you ever noticed how much Will Ferrell's character in that SNL sketch looks like Jim?

i know this is a stab in the dark with a dull knife, but that video would indicate that there will be 4 special guests... Quaid?

Glad somebody else was thinking this. I have had this suspicion since T5.

Watch Badu go to town in these clips. She'll attract you again:

hell yeah, me too. sometimes you gotta let that inner diva out. I like this song it reminds me to be safe when I drink. It's emotional tho because it brings back memories of when I was roofied and treated in a similar way. "...and then ya slipped me a mickey...". shit's legit: I wish they had the normal version on youtube but they only have the flip it mix:
Erykah Badu - Certainly (flipped it) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gIgut8omQ9c#ws)
i think ben sollee is playin a show in louisville here soon....? Hmmm.....
sollee is from ky... lexington I believe, so he could always pop on into Louisville
I would say Ben sollee is a lock to be one of the guest.
1. Recently performed with mmj in Lexington
2. He is some what local and his tour schedule does not list anything before 6-3
3. HE IS PART OF THE ALBUM!
I would be more shocked if He is not part of this.
I for one am hoping that the black metal girls listed in the album credits are there Tuesday night.
So far were either expecting or wishing for:
ERYKAH BADU
Rachel Dratch
Johnny Q
Sollee
A Choir
Hopefully they're all there plus some. I doubt Quaid would be there though - T5 was a celebration of the past, the palace is the opposite IMO
I wonder if they'll have strings tonight.
