Y'all should've been around when they were rocking the long tresses and Jim was still playing barefoot!  Talk about dedicattion to the rootsiness of the music.

I missed them that year. My co worker came in after they opened for the Doves (whom I was listening to at the time) and said "I saw this band you would really love; they were barefoot and long haired". He's doesn't know how right he was! I had just moved to NYC and was broke, bummed I missed out!

yup, saw 'em @ field day festival in 2003.  the weather was dreadful, it was just pouring down rain.  but there they were - rocking the fuck out, stomping in puddles, hair everywhere, jim barefoot...  badass and oh so dreamy!!!

there is a short clip from that show up on youtube (search "my morning jacket field day festival") but i can't seem to get it to play today.  it's a small glimpse of the awesomeness but a giant tease at the same time.

anyway, i'm not really fond of guys w/ long hair or facial hair but there's just something about jim.  he's super dreamy.  whatever "look" he's sporting - he always looks good  ;)

Yup,  saw them for the first time with the long hair and bare feet in Philly back in the fall of 2003.

it's only 1:43 but you'll get the idea.  i wish there was more footage from this show - i remember it was out of control awesome, a definite highlight of the day.  but there doesn't seem to be any other recording out there (audio or video), not even a set list.  it's like a ghost show!  (except for this clip, of course)  you want jim james w/ long hair???

the youtube field day festival clip is working:

And after watching that Field Day clip or any other old school clip, how can yinz all NOT want the long hair to be back in bizness?!

Can you enlighten me on the word "Yinz"? I get what it means, but do you actually say "Yinz"? Is it a Western PA thing?

i'm not sure if it's ONLY a western PA thing, but i have family out that way & they do say "yinz", all the time.

I went to college in western PA and it sure seemed like a western PA thing to me.  I've never heard any other region of the US talk like they do in western PA!  :D  My favorite is, "Yinz gonn donn tonn to watch the Stillers?"   Translation:  "Are you all going down down town to watch the Steelers?"   ;D

Yes. Yinz is an essential word of the Pittsburghese language (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pittsburgh_English)....I think it can be heard a little wider than western PA (into central PA, WVa, eastern Ohio, etc), but its definitely rooted in Pittsburgh.

Im not such an old school yinzer where I actually say "yinz" without intentionally saying it for comedic purposes, but some people do. My grandma says yinz with such a frequency you'd expect to see it in Webster's

Yeah I'm in Northeast PA, where "heyna" is used pretty frequently. It means like, "know what I'm saying?". Haha, it's pretty old school, the youngins don't really use it that often. I don't. We don't have yinz though.
