Stoner-country collective My Morning Jacket don their best duds for next year's tour.

STONER? c'mon.

I think it was all funny and shit but the stoner thing is out of control now.  But, how to make it go away?

I guess long hair = stoner.

New band names to capitalize on the stoner market:
My Morning Joint?
My Smoking Jacket?
My Mellow Jacket?
Whatever, at least it's not a Skynyrd comparison.

I'm probably as blind as a rock, but I don't see the word "stoner" in that link...  ???

Perhaps I'm too mellow to notice it.  ;)

Me neither but I think it was mentionned in the title, which is not displayed when I open the link.  

But maybe you can consider the stoner quote as something related to the stone-age. Rock with balls, which comes right out of the dusty caves of stonehenge. Something like in spinal tap (great hilarious movie).

You could see it like that, but I'm afraid people that use that term don't mean it like that. Ah, genres are for pussies, right? Rock 'n roll!  ;D
