My Morning Jacket at Urban Outfitters (in-store gig) & the Yard Dog, Austin, TX, March 14, 2002 The Urban Outfitters (1pm) and Yard Dog (5pm) were seperate gigs! Review as posted on the My Morning Jacket mailinglist (with some minor additions afterwards): Subject: [mymorningjacket] SXSW Date: Thu, 14 Mar 2002 20:35:51 -0600 From: Matthew Daley To: mymorningjacket@yahoogroups.com Hey All, I do believe our boys are starting to catch on! I didn't go to their showcase last night but some friends told me it was at capacity when MMJ went on at 1am (they didn't get in) as opposed to last year when they had about 20 people show up (everyone was trying to get into the Blake Babies reunion i guess). I did see them at the Yard Dog this afternoon and they were THE buzz band- i don't know how many people i heard talking about them before their set, But i guarantee everyone there is talking about them now. A stellar set of MMJ standards ending in a mess of monitors, drum kits, hay and guitars (and guitarists)! I got to their Urban Outfitters gig late, so i missed a couple solo Jim James but arrived just as he started George Harrison's "All Things Must Pass" so i can't be anything but happy. Then the band joined in for "Old Sept. Blues", "Picture of You" and "Evelyn Is Not Real". I believe Jim may have set a new record for the silent pause at the end before the last guitar notes. Then a Black Sabbath dirge (no, i don't know which one), a new one, and "Just Because I Do". I'm probably missing one in there but an excellent low key set by the band followed by the high energy of Swearing At Motorists who I hadn't seen before. They do rock! Of note: Jim was playing a shiney new hollowbody guitar and apparently had enough money left over for some shoes but by the time they got to the Yard Dog he was barefootin' with the Flying V and all was right in the universe.
