Dirty Impound

Jay Blakesberg is a master of capturing “the moment” in live settings, but he’s really outdone even his own high standards in this set, which captures My Morning Jacket‘s barn-burner at the Bill Graham Civic Auditorium last Friday night. Even if one had never heard a note from MMJ these photos present a band one NEEDS to hear as fast as humanly possible, their voluminous energy ensnared by Blakesberg’s lens. Guess it takes a titan to capture titans.

Setlist:
Victory Dance, First Light, I’m Amazed, Outta My System, It Beats 4 U, At Dawn, Wonderful (The Way I Feel), Heartbreakin Man, Off The Record, Golden, I Will Sing You Songs, You Wanna Freak Out, Smokin From Shootin, Touch Me I’m Going To Scream Pt. 2, Movin’ Away, Dondante, Mahgeetah, Circuital

Encore: Wordless Chorus, The Day Is Coming, Cobra (partial), Holdin’ On to Black Metal, One Big Holiday
