My Morning Jacket

the set list was posted at the end of the online party thread, but i'll post it here as well:

--all break for champagne, collect back on stage minutes later with wax fang, the dearland horns, techs and family and friends for the countdown...btw-the "mayor of sf. was the bear draped in a 2007 banner  :)--countdown, balloons, confettit, champagne, embraces, smooches and then...
celebration (w/deerland horns)
all night long (w/deerland horns)
careless whisper (which i'm convinced carl would do b/c it's got 2 sax solos in it)

honest man
the bear
steam engine
wordless chorus
easy morning (w/dearland horns)
dancefloor (w/dearland horns)
highway to hell--sung by tommy.  on fucking fire.  also, bruce the guitar tech came out to play the bass part on this.  dressed as pocohantas.  yes.  YES!
anytime
mahgeeta

so.

let's start with the fillmore.  my friend and i got online pretty early (let your geek flag fly) so we saw some of the decor being loaded into the venue.  we couldn't tell what it was, but it piqued our curiosity.  the entry way to the fillmore was decorated with white snowdrifts, pine trees and wooden fencing.  inside at the top of the stairs was a rail car piled with gold (prospecting, but of course).  the auditorium was BEAUTIFUL.  the walls without the balcony and behind the stage were covered with immense gorgeous painted murals of woods and night sky.  these may be the murals hanging in okonokos, don't know...
the balconies were decorated to look as if snow and ice were hanging from them--blue and white fabric.  the stage was full of props.  we spent the time before the show just trying to spot them all.  on top of the speaker stacks were a stuffed coyote howling up, some skulls, more pine shrubs, boulders, some old lanterns, skeletons...including one that was draped over patrick's kit.

for NYE the fillmore had erected a barricade in front of the stage.  i was disappointed at first, but grew to love it as the night went on.  in a figurative way, you understand...
the swag stand was operating under the banner "general store" for the night.

and now:  wax fang.  outstanding.  these men came onstage in girls' cheerleading and ice-skating uniforms, hoop earrings, pontytails, eyeliner, tights and rocked the house.  what a great time.  i hadn't heard them before.  they played a broad range of  material.  at one point the guitar player was messing around with an effects touch pad which reminded me of nels cline or charles bissel of the wrens.  (i think...hope...they are playing with mmj in southern ca. later this week)
worth noting:  they formed a pyramid onstage,  the bassist and drummer forming the base.  the guitarist kneeled on their backs and played a solo.  
pretty fucking rad.

and then...
the intro....

a scrim painted with more trees came down in front of the stage.  snow started blowing through the AUDITORIUM.  we heard wind howling... and then these 5 figures crept onto the stage as if walking in the cold and wind in a dark wood...
here is how they were dressed:
patrick--indian chief in buckskin w/full headdress and gold mask
carl--fringed buckskin suit and coonskin cap
bo--wide brimmed hat, terrific suit--a badass gambler sort of look
jim--cowboy chaps, vest, giant hat, holsters (working cap guns we were to learn...)
two-tone--covered under a full bear skin

the band mimed to a recorded dialogue about how cold and hungry they were, came down to the front of the stage to build a fire.  (the wood for the fire had been covered during wax fang's set...it was one of the prop suprises).  they sent tommy off to chop some more wood for the fire.  while he was off over in a corner miming chopping with a hatchet, the rest of the band conspired to kill and eat him (this was a very involved discussion regarding who would grab arms and ankles, etc.  [smiley=evil.gif]).  they snuck up on him, and as they attacked him, the lights went red.  they returned to the fire sated (licking bones and the blade of the killing spear) but feeling a bit remorseful for killing and eating their friend.  in remembering him someone ( carl?) remarked on tommy's leadership skills.

i don't remember exactly what happened next...i think the band moved to pick up their instruments as the lights went down...but still in character.  there were cries of "that sounds like a bass line!" or something similar.  a spot light shone at the balcony at the rear of the auditorium next to the stage, on which a banner hung that spelled "heaven".  there was two-tone in a white suit.  he descended the stairs in plumes of fog and joined the band to play OBH.  i was beside myself with whooping and laughing at the tremendousness of this whole scene so i don't remember what happened when tommy got to the stage, or how they made the transition to playing...

(i'm going to break this into 2 posts b/c this is soooo long and i could really use a cuppa joe.)

quick post:  this is a perfect time to mention our supporting cast:

bruce was wearing a hot squaw costume which served to display his MANY tattoos.  who knew?!  this also looked bitchin with his black studded equipement belt and walkie.

i don't know his name, but i believe he's front of house engineer.. was wearing a great tom mix-style western shirt and an ENORMOUS orange cowboy hat with a star in the center.

all night you could see our FOH man nodding professionally behind the board in this amazing hat, and bruce (who my friend dubbed The Best Pocohantas Of All Time) rocking out offstage, tuning guitars and dancing.  

also of note:  not only were wax fang dressed in the cheerleader/ice skating suits, but at least two of them were stuffing their bras.  hope their dates weren't disappointed.   ;D

check the taping forums...   ;)

oh and thanks for the great review, it was hard listening last night and not seeing some things going on...

now that the scene is set, i'll get to some of the show comments...but first coffee...and some tacos.  it is 4pm in san francisco and i just dried my hair and put on my shoes.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!   [smiley=beer.gif]

this is my kind of review!  looking forward to part 2.  thanks!

Awesome Ms Yvon.  Just awesome.  Thanks for taking the time to share a special show with us!  I also, can't wait for part two.  However, it was part one that I wanted more detail on and you gave it to me, and then some!

Hi,

Kory J, I reposted them above but I don't think they are any larger. I didn't resize them at all this time.

I have an extra if you would like one :)

I'm so envious that I didn't get to go to that show.  the setlist was MIND BLOWING.  Whoever was there, you are the luckiest people on earth.

Abso-fucking-loutely blown away!!!  

Saturday night-

First time live seeing-  Rollin back,  Nashville to Kentucky

One big holliday was sick.     Got to meet Jim after the show on the sidewalk.  He is the coolest human being on the planet.  


NYE- Greatist show in the history of the Universe!

Live theatre to start the show with a see thru curtain in front of the stage.  Jim was searing a leather Sheriffs outfit with chaps and a badge.  The curtain dropped as the intro transitioned to jam of OBH.  

THe band was having lots of fun the whole night smiling at each other more than anyother show I've seen.

Monster setlist,  they wore thru the weaker members of the audience after the covers.  The band showed no signs of fatigue.  Mageetah was as full of force as anything all night.  Magical night.  THe best cover was Celebration. They dropped white balloons and turned the lights on and every one was dancing like the world was in perfect balance. I could have stayed there for eternity.

Steam engine was hands down best ever.

Jim was crackin up watchin tommy sing Highway to hell. Priceless!

Carls sax on careless whisper was spot on.

Cobra!  My Campaign worked!

I've never seen Jim jump so high as Easy morning Rebel outro Jam with the horns. Beautiful!

Watching the band bow and exit to "stairway to heaven" over the PA with smoke rollin off the stair case.  Etched in my memory.  Every one dancin  and singing  "As we wind on down the road..."    pure bliss!!


I made a Jacket with EL wire on the back spelling MMJ!  everyone loved it!!


I'm still in awe and will be for the rest of the year.  I know where I'll be every NYE!!  Wherever  MMJ is.


Peace, love to all!!  God bless MMJ!

ms. yvon!! That was such a kickass review! Thanks for taking the time - I can't wait to hear part two. Something about a unicorn?? :)

***edited to add***

And you - LET THE FETUS ROCK! We must've posted at the same time there. Your review kicked ass too!! I love hearing all the color commentary from y'all  ;D

Nice jacket Z man!  I instantly thought of the petition after the first note of Cobra.  Nice going my man!  Coincidence, maybe, maybe not!

i must say i am beyond jealous. i'm on the east coast, and mmj had to drop out of last year's nye show with north mississippi and crowes (replaced by trey) and although the show was good...i got tickets really only for mmj.

either way, sirius played the whole show tonite when i was driving back from the beach. i must search for a recording. sirius seemed to have a line out from the board so there has to be some decent kbps downloads out there.

QuoteI'm so envious that I didn't get to go to that show.  the setlist was MIND BLOWING.  Whoever was there, you are the luckiest people on earth.

Well, then I must surely be one of the luckiest people alive, for...
I got to:
a) see my favorite band
b) see my FAVORITE singer/songwriter
c) be in my favorite city
d) actually meet and talk to Jim on Saturday after the show AND
e) get to personally give him the bracelet I made for him (weird, I know. live with it)

An incredible show on Sunday which was so creative and fun that I had "perma-grin" by the time they blew on into OBH. (The whole Donner Party theme was so appropos after having ACTUALLY driven over Donner Pass from Reno to see them!)

I have to say that after the 6 shows I have seen now, these guys are coming into their own legend, and i daresay, next year, there won't be any breathing room!. Just leave me room to dance along! I will surely be there!

Careless Whisper was by far my most surprising moment of the night. I felt like I was back in middle school... so gangly-nostalgic! All Night Long and Celebrate - PERFECT!

Carl on slide guitar - my kness go to jelly.
Tommy - rippin it UP on Highway to Hell - the guys were lovin every minute of it!
All of the "acting" was great and in such a non-self-conscious way... It made it very tangible which made the entire evening feel so intimate, ..even though it also ROCKED so hard on all the well-loved tunes and so incredibly LOUD! I still feel it. {sigh}

Jim - damn, honey - chaps are made for you!  :P

All together, the best night of my life!

Plus, anyone get a load of that hot guy with the ELwire coat? MMJ all the WAY!!!

**a note:  i typed this HOURS ago, but my host's DSL crapped out.  i'm staying with a friend in sf.  finally got it up and running again.  here is part 2:**

okay.  took a walk around the neighborhood, had some tacos, read the onion and grabbed some joe.

there's no need to go through the entire set so i'll just lay out some stand out stuff:

-patrick kept that headdress on at least all the way thru OBH.  fierce, i tell you!
-one issue with being in the audience close to the stage is that sometimes you don't get to hear the mix, but hear a lot of the monitors (what can you do?)  last night carl's sax in dondante was GORGEOUS and audible.  woo!  also got to hear some beautiful bo work that i'd missed the night before.
-during they ran jim picked up one of the skeletons, draped its arms over his shoulders and danced with it.  during an instrumental break he dipped it low.  nice moves.

-the first three songs of the 2nd set were played without irony and with all heart.  what a great time.  during celebration all of the friends stayed on stage to sing, dance and bat balloons off the stage back to the crowd.  huge bales of white balloons, confetti and fake money inscribed with all sorts of great mmj stuff opened up over the crowd.  wotta thing!

-when the band started to play all night long there was a collective suprised quiet as people realized what was happening.  and then more dancing and singing  :)

-during wordless chorus jim picked a balloon up off the stage and held it to his chest while singing.  he was backlit, holding this now glowing balloon in mostly dark.  lovely.  at the end of the song he sang on his knees at the front of the stage clutching his giant hat to his chest.

-pocohants had a mini-marshmallow gun which he used to launch marshmallows from off stage at the band and the crowd during the set.  ;D  one of the fillmore security guys came over to investigate what was flying around.  i pointed out a marshmallow and explained.  he shook his head, laughed and went back to his post.

-when dearland horns came out to play again they sang along exuberantly (off mic) to EMR and dancefloors between horn bits.  for the record:  the horn assortment was as follows:  trombone, clarinet, saxophone

-don't remember where exactly, but jim made use of the cap pistol, firing it off during songs, and twirling it on his finger.  he also swung a shotgun around a bit.

-highway to hell.  holy smokes.  tommy takes the mic.  in that fantastic white suit.  bruce slings on the bass guitar...and the riffs begin.  t-t t. made his way around the stage at one point leaning over one of bo's rigs, and patrick's kit while singing.  don't know if he was at all bashful about singing or it was his normal m.o., but he sang with his back to the crowd quite a lot.  either way, it brought down the house.  (there was a woman in the photo/security pit in front of the barrier during the show taking pix of the band.  she and t-t t. are married.  what a terrfic thing to be with family and friends even when on the road.  hooray!)

--magheeta-->outro:  as the last bit of music was wrapping up at the end of the song, t-t t. made his way to his bass rack, and put up his guitar, and reached for something else.  i thought "another song?!  WHAT?"  but, when he brought his arm down he was holding a shot gun.  he strode confidently back to the front of the stage and confronted jim.  here another recorded dialogue came on.  scores to be settled, etc.
a long gun battle ensued, but what with tommy being a ghost and all, it wasn't much of a contest.  as all the members lay on the floor, tommy surveying the carnage, he said something about them ascending the stairway to heaven (the balcony above).  cue:  led zeppelin.  one by one he roused the band, first carl, patrick, jim and bo who were now wearing white robes (bed sheets with openings cut for their heads.  fucking awesome) and coming to terms with being spirits.  they filed back off stage being checked off the "heaven's list" kept by our FOH man in the giant hat as they approached the stairway.   there was much waving and a deep bow center stage as they left.  SPECTACULAR.

full disclosure:  i am a sad recounter of setlists as is evidenced by my account of night one.  last night pocohantas gave my pal the set list which i've been using to jog my memory of the night.

there were some good costumes in the crowd last night including a guy in a full body bunny suit.  that is some kind of commitment.  i was sporting my tuxedo t-shirt.   8-)

so:  THANKS FOR THE WONDERFUL WONDERFUL NIGHTS, GENTLEMEN!  
your heart and humor serve to bring your music into further relief, and make it that much more challenging to describe your outfit to interested friends.

[size=14]HAPPY NEW YEAR, ALL!!1![/size]

fetus!  we spotted your jacket before the show.  OUTSTANDING!

Fetus and A Delle you make me proud to be a fan of this band.  What great recounts of the show.  Thank you so much, it just affirms how much I love and believe in this band.  ms yvon, great stuff I could invision what it must have been like to be there in my mind.  Very Special.  I won't let myself miss this next time.  I feel very fortunate to have been at Bonnaroo this year but it's become clear that this band is at a point right now where you start understanding that they are going to keep topping themselves for quite a while.  Just when you think they can't blow your mind anymore they just grin and do it again only better!!!!!!!  These shows are Legendary but this legend aint done writting.

Hey Ms Yvon, thanks for the review, sounds like it was a magical New Year's Eve.

fetus    my girl thought your jacket was the best  ....thanks for the pic ;D

Was there a different poster for New Years than the 29th and 30th? If so, can someone post a pic of it?

Great stories guys.  Ms. Yvon, wow, you may not be able to remember setlists, but you did a damn good job remembering the visuals.  Thank you so much for spending the time to set the scene.  I really enjoyed that.

I had heard rumors of a NYE edition shirt, can anyone confirm this, I was unable to make it to the show?

 :D

Wow! That sounds so amazing. Awesome! Can't wait to see pics. Great costumes! Anyone upload anyting on youtube or google video from Sunday nite?  Peace.

QuoteWas there a different poster for New Years than the 29th and 30th? If so, can someone post a pic of it?

Hi,
I was there in Friday and Sunday.  I feel so lucky.  The poster on Friday was for 2 nights and the NYE Sunday show had its' own poster.  I am not able to scan them  but will try to describe below.

For Friday and Saturday:
     The Bill Graham Presents in San Francisco Poster had a brown faux wood background with a long wooden match stick on up in 2 curvy, sexy flames of fire, each flame spelling My Morning Jacket with 2 smaller flames below with Rogue Wave and Elvis Perkins.   Along the length of the match stick it describes "FRI + SAT. DECEMBER + 30, 2006, THE FILLMORE 1805 GEARY AT FILLMORE"

For NYE 2006 Poster
     The poster was set inside a dark wooden frame setting a western feel (which was the tone of the entire night).  The landscape of the poser is barren and stark, yet warm and hot.  The bear is wearing a party hat with an "F". There is a pocket watch hanging from his vest pocket with the time of ten 'till midnight. The bear has an owl wearing a top hat sticking out of his mouth (like a "coo-coo clock") with a 2007 banner like a father time.
There is a white owl in an old wind blown tree which sits behind them and a mountain range in the background.    The landscape is littered with bones and a skull.
"Bill Graham presents in San Francisco MY MORNING JACKT –WAX FANG
NEW YEARS EVE DECEMBER 31st 2006 THE FILLMORE 1805 Geary at Fillmore"

Yvon, amazing, amazing review!! It was so nice to meet you  btw ( I was with Ravi). We saw you front and center on NYE and were ear-to-ear smiles. It looked like you were having a grand time. WE had such a great time, I don't even know where to begin... :D

I'll get better quality pics up later but here are the posters. I took over 150 pics of NYE--
They are being uploaded as I write this.

lisa- perfect descriptions of those posters!

jacketg-thanks for posting the pix!  i did see some pre-show moves being thrown down  to the james brown by ravi.  

i found a mashed "in gideon we trust" bill in my car this morning.  must have made the trip in on the bottom of my shoe.   ;D  i think it's beyond saving.  

so before heading back to los angeles today, gonna hit cheap pete's to pick up some fillmore frames.  woot!

Wow, the Power of that In Gideon We Trust bill is just awesome.  These guys are so brilliant, the posters are legendary.  Why wasn't I at these shows?  Once again, DAMNIT, DAMNIT, DAMNIT!!!!!!!!!!!  Thank goodness for the sirus stream and all the beautiful recounts.

I am sitting here still blown away. this show ruled so hard... holy !!!!!!!!!  sooooo many highlights. it was one big party, i've never seen anything like it!
i missed getting one of those bills, if anyone has an extra i'd love it!

review to come soon!!  

There was a special edition t-shirt for the 3-night stand at the Fillmore. (Brown with light yellow letters and a lion "singing" flowers out all swirly around him - so like Jim's voice, eh?)  I have it at home, but I will take a pic later and upload it...tonight. unless someone beats me to it! LOL

A_delle

Have you ever pet the big cat's main?  It's much like hearing Jim James Sang.  

This is how we dressed up. We went with the San Francisco during the Gold Rush theme. Left to right: I'm a miner, my brother is a drunk miner who got up in the middle of the night to have a movement (he was drunk after this pic), my other brother was one of San Francisco's many Chinese in the 1840's (he got a glue on Fu Man Chu 'stache after this pic was taken) and my wife went the Laura Ingalls Wilder route.

I can't describe how much fun we had. The memories are rushing back as I listen to this now. GOOD TIMES!

Andrew

andrew, I met your wife in the bathroom line, we had a great discussion about how much time it should really take to go....:)

Not to jack the thread or nuthin' but she can be in and out of the bathroom quicker than anyother female I've ever known!  ;D

So, here is a pic of my t-shirt. The fine print at the bottom reads:

I was front row center with Yvon and couldn't have described the night any better.  

These were my first three MMJ shows and now I can't wait for the next one.  I certainly hope the Fillmore invites them back for another NYE extravaganza.  They put their heart and soul into every minute of that evening.  I have seen a lot of shows at the Fillmore over the years - it is my neighborhood venue.  I don't remember ever feeling so full of joy and thankfullness before, during and after a show in that building.  I echo what others have said about the great vibes throughout the evening.  Everyone seemed to be on the same page - security, staff, crowd, crew and of course, the band.  I have never seen so many content and spirited people at a live show - even the security was smiling and tossing up balloons!

What other band could combine so many different elements into one night?  There was theater, costumes, set design, special effects, amazing lighting, along with three plus hours of solid music which included surprise covers, live rarites, guest horns and Jim James interpretive dancing.  The cover songs were played so well and with genuine feeling - I can't believe how well they worked right after midnight.

I am so thankful to everyone who was involved in the planning of the NYE show.  It was a spectacular display of imagination and creativity.  Not to mention the amazing music coming from a band at peak performance.  I can't imainge them sounding any better than they did at the Fillmore this weekend.  I am a relatively new fan but there are few bands that I resepct as much as MMJ right now.  No one who attended Sunday's show will ever forgot that magical evening.  

Yvon, I sent you a pm!

JacketGirl, did I meet you on Saturday in front of the stage (while you were talking to Yvon)?  Sounds like you had a great night.  I can't wait to see your NYE pictures!

Yes, it was very nice to meet you. The show was so, so amazing. What a great trifecta of shows you got for your first three, yahoo!!  Jacket shows are truly epic.

I couldn't agree more that I hope the Fillmore brings them back, they seem to just seem at home there, like they absorb the history of the place and create some more.

If you are willing to sift through tons of photos ya'll, here is the link to all the pics.

A_delle, that shirt is really Sweet!

Happy Jacket new year!

wow!  great pix!  i LOVE the shot of the snow falling.  wow wow wow!

Will someone confirm if in fact the man in the bear suit at midnight who led the countdown was gavin newsom, the mayor of SF?

Also, will someone summarize what was said during the shootout at the end of the show? The dialogue was hard to understand.

ah yes, VEEERYYYYYY Nice!!!!!!!

okay. here's my only question. which movements of Cobra did they have covered? All the way up until the slow middle section, or did they get all the way through the song? I would imagine they stopped after "i know sonebody yes i know someone who likes to wait, likes to wait for the policemen to come..." but i haven't had internet in a week and won't be able to download for another day or two. and i neeeeedz some d33tz!!!

Thanks again!

They played the WHOLE thing. As far as I have heard any version, anyway. It was the 3-movement version. I can't recall off the top of my head how many minutes it was long, but they Cobra-d me into absolute bliss. I heard Cobra live the very first time we saw them (at the Fillmore!) in ...03?, and I was like "whaaaaaa.....? This this is the COOLest s#*! I have ever heard!" and, then no Cobra for the next 5 shows we saw. TOTAL withdrawal I was in (says yoda). Then my Zman put out the Cobra challenge/campaign (LOL) and, VOILA! I about fell over when those bass lines started!!! THANK YOU MMJ! It was my first standing-in-a-crowd-full-body-O! ;)

I will go dance now.
