An Evening With My Morning Jacket

The LC (Outdoors)
$29 Advance and $32 Day of Show

Tickets onsale 8/2.

The last time they played Columbus, Dr. Dog opened and The Whiles (with Zach still in the band). So yeah, it’s been awhile.

Press release regarding My Morning Jacket:

My Morning Jacket will be playing with Yo La Tengo at the Houston Verizon Wireless Theatre on March 10th, and at the Austin Music Hall on March 13th. Jim James will also be performing solo at Austin’s St. David’s Church on March 15th.

If Yo La Tengo is in Houston March 10, a SXSW appearance isn’t out of the picture, amiright?

Also.. Kimya Dawson, getting more popular due to her work on the Juno soundtrack, posted to her Livejournal that she’ll be at SXSW, too. (thx Alex)
