I can not begin to describe the complete admiration I have for this band. They have this interesting way of making a sound that is spiritually uplifting, thought inducing, and eargasm provoking that it often feels like they have reached into my soul and tugged on it a little bit. Now lets be honest, how many bands can make you feel that way?
I am so stoked they are coming to Vegas, I can barely contain my excitement. Once again Alex, you bring me great joy with excellent news. Thank you time and time my friend!
The new material is excellent and I look forward to seeing a longer set than 2007’s Lollapalooza. If I could see something in the vein of Okonokos… Jesus Christ. Lastly, thank you My Morning Jacket, thank you.
