Every night when I put my kiddo to bed I sing her 3 songs. One by a local musician here in Austin named Matt The Electrician, a Pearl Jam song and At Dawn.
The first time she heard At Dawn come on my iPod she flipped out and wanted to know why some man was singing my song. I explained to her that his name was Jim James and showed her some videos of the band and even a picture of Jim and I together. Since then she's become obsessed with all things Jacket and Jim. Last weekend I was flipping channels and found storytellers. This is what happened next...

She's adorable. Kids are effing awesome!
That is just so classic! She has got the moved down to a T! loved it, thanks for sharing!!
that's awesome, thanks for sharing. this just made my day. :thumbsup:
damn I cant wait to hear reports of her first show. in a couple years, of course.
HA! That is great.
thats awesome!!!! my 12 yr old kills it on one big holiday on guitar hero and my 4 yr old just named his new bird JJ
Great vid, Cameron. I keep trying to record my 2.5 yr. old singing Steam Engine, Bermuda Highway, or Black Metal, which she screamed for on the way home from daycare this afternoon, but everytime I put a camera or microphone in front of her, she stops and investigates the device. D'oh!
thanks for the kind comments friends. she has been to a show but she was still in mommy's belly.
johnny - i usually have the same problem with the camera but if i just kind hold my iphone on my lap she doesn't seem to notice.
she sang some of wonderful too but her vocal skills aren't up to her headbanging skills!
That's too cute, she looks concert ready!
Dang she headbangs better than me!

I was gonna say, she's definitely ahead of the curve in the headbanging department for her age! ;D

Elderly Woman - The idea was to keep it to short songs so I wasn't spending all night putting her to bed. If she's fighting it I'll pull out "Golden" too.
Nice

Our 2.5 year old asks "are those guys rockin' out?" And then asks if he can be a rock star too. Your girl is adorable.
Great video Cameron. I love when she turns to you and says, "Just like Jim James." Too cute! :)
I want to have a daughter like that also, that listens to MMJ and loves it!!!
Congrats on the cute girl you have
That is awesome! My 2 year old son went crazy the first time he heard that song. He already has a sweet power stance down.
Freakin Sweet!!!!!! Omg!,This video is spectacular and made my day too. I started headbanging with her! She does a spot on Jim James and even has his wild and lustrous hair. BRAVO BABY-GIRL!!!
God damn I hope my kids are Jacket fans. We will form a family band and tour the country in the summer playing covers.

I will totally date this chick.
absolutely amazing! both my wife and i agreed that last time we saw mmj in chicago that jim's moves reminded us of our daughter darla who is obsessed with "metal song." (black metal). proof once again that their tunes should be sent up into orbit with chuck berry

Kids are awesome*
