I've tried to talk many of my friends into liking them, but they just won't learn :'( :P Actually my dad once said he liked a song with MMJ when he didn't know who was singing, but last time I checked he wasn't very fond of them again :'( We have to sprid the great news about MMJ  ;)

I believe the My Morning Jacket spans the ages.  I introduced a 17 year old to them last week.  He dug them.  My Dad really likes them.  (I'm actually thinking of taking my Dad to the Toronto show, but I'm a little afraid of him watching me groove out.  Either I'll be too shy to do that in front of him, or I'll scare him.  He feels awkward with spazziness.  :))  My Mom likes them.  My Uncle John likes them.  A lot.  He loves Patrick (he's a drummer).  In fact, he really really loves Patrick.  To be perfectly honest, I can't think of a person who I've played them for who didn't go "Woah".  

Maybe it's the gun...

maybe it was more like deadhead.

But is there really much difference between BLOCKhead, ROCKhead, CRACKhead or DEADhead?   ;)
Title: Re: Young members?
Post by: EC on Aug 30, 2005, 10:00 PM
Yes there is.  ROCKhead=awesome
Blockhead=Charlie Brown reference that might still be popular in a European country
Crackhead=my neighbour's girlfriend who still walks around the neighbourhood even thought they were evicted
Deadhead=this self-righteous dancer I know who's white but who has dreads (which is fine, totally fine) except that she's always getting mad at everybody for everything they do (from meat-eating to owning a pet) and yet gets really mad if you argue with her

I'm sure there are better examples of deadheads.  She's the only one I know who truly was one.  Except for my old best friend.

I always thought deadheads was the term used to describe Grateful Dead fans?

Yep.  She was one.  She travelled with them and worked in the little kiosks and everything.  

Oh she drives me mental.  NOT because she loved the Dead.  That's cool.  I just wish she'd let up on people a little.

oh man, i hate it when that happens.  i have found that the most rigid, polemic idealogues are usually unemployed, live off of trust funds, and have no clue about reality at all.  

secretly, i'm jealous i can't live that way, but publicly, i call them "assholes".  ;)

Well, I don't find anything offensive with "women are sexy".  You can say that all over the place!  :)  Do any of you gals get offended by that?

Now, my eyebrow might raise if you said "dogs are sexy", or "my Mom is sexy".  ;)

No, I don't think anyone would take offense at that statement...:) And you're right about age being just a number!We're all hear because we adore the Jacket!!

And yes, Tyrone....no wonder I dig that song so much! "gotta call Jim James..."
