bjorn_skurj Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 "Dondante" is a good soundtrack for that realm between this world and the magic world. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mpolak21 Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 I love this band, I had a kick a couple of weeks ago where I listened to Bermuda Highway almost everyday. Dondante is an excellent track as well. --Mike Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Three dollars and 63 cents Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 MMJ is one of those bands I keep meaning to get around to and still haven't. I had some iTunes gift cards from Christmas, but I ended up buying some Sonic Youth instead. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Vacant Horizon Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 i am so hot and cold with these dudes, as i am band of horses. one day i am in love with everything they do and then today, i just can't stand 'em. did see them live in 04. pretty good. glad jim cut his hair.craig Quote Link to post Share on other sites

SPECTACULAR!! Yeah, I love it. I actually found out about these guys at Bonnaroo in 2004, I hadn't really heard of them, but almost everyone I ran into was talking about how great they were and they played a live version of One Big Holiday a lot in between sets. I ended up missing their set, but I picked up It Still Moves on my way out. --Mike Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ms. yvon Posted March 4, 2008 Author Share Posted March 4, 2008 dude, i was at bonnaroo in '04, too! i did make mmj's set. it was the first time i'd seen them live, and boy howdy, did they make an impression. before their show, i was napping under a tree with my friend, suzie. i woke up, woke her up to tell her i really wanted to see this band, and stumbled over to find a spot in the crowd.
