saying he got given a ticket last minute even though he was not much of a fan and thought it was brilliant!

As someone who last listened to My Morning Jacket 5 years ago, I probably wasn't the best judge for the gig as I didn't know any of their material. It's always the same at gigs where you go in blind, it's hard to get into the music unless the band are so blindingly brilliant that you can't help but move your feet to the music.

I was talking to a guy who was a big fan. He was disappointed that it wasn't sold out, I suggested that might be because maybe, they're just not that good...he went on to say they were pretty much one of his favourite bands, oops; everyone's entitled to their opinion though.

By the end of the gig, a couple of songs had got me moving, but I wasn't convinced as a whole. Judging by the reaction of the people around me though, it was a great gig in their books, and who could complain when they came on and did a 30 minute encore. Perhaps I should go and give their new album a listen...

Really awesome band. Great set, would have loved Steam Engine and Run Thru but can't really complain...and although I, like many people, was skeptical about Highly Suspicious, live it was absolutely great, really enjoyed it.

Burmuda Highway, Phone Went West, Dondante and One Big Holiday were all absolutely brilliant - in fact, I think I enjoyed the encore more than the actual first set (though it was hardly an encore, more of an entire second set...) Annoyingly though I was worried about catching my train for pretty much the whole of it so I wasn't really paying the music the attention it warranted...

The support weren't bad, though pretty much a cut-copy of MMJ...liked the little tribute to Run Thru towards the end of their last song.
