I am sure others have asked this but I need some help...I downloaded "Z" and it is pretty good...what other albums would you recommend? I am going to do a one at a time type thing. So whats next? Dondante is prob my favorite song of "Z" so far so that should give a little insight as to my tastes.

Start with 'Okonokos' which is a double live album. There are also very good live recordings on archive.org. In fact I posted links to some of them on page 25 or 26 of this thread. The old albums are beyond phenominal but the tunes sound different now (live) then they do on record.
Personally i love all the studio albums about equal. Some are more new listener friendly than others. Umm, maybe go with 'It Still Moves' next and go from there. But I really suggest you listen to the links I've posted. Also a great show on archive is the Portland 2008 show
I went absolutely bonkers when I heard the final chorus of Strangulation live for the first time. It was the closest I've ever come to crying tears of joy at a concert.
is that on the dvd? it's not on my ipod, and i thought i had the enitre album.
It's on the Vinyl, and the bonus DVD Acoustic Chorale that came with certain versions of the Okonoos DVD!
The elusive and rare Acoustic Chorale DVD! (I have 2 for good measure) If you want a copy try ebay they pop up on there every now and then. I got one of my copies for about $15 but the other was $35...So worth it!
Also if you go here mymorningjacket.com/forum/index.php?topic=2242.0 you can get the info on the DVD that was made by a fan last year from the Charlottetown show with PHJB. He used an HD camera and good audio equipment, then synched the two together. One of the best bootlegs I have ever seen in terms of quality.

do you think theyll do as many covers this year? they nailed all those old soul/funk songs they did, would be awesome to see them try it with a different sound
^^^^ That's another link to the weekly free download from the T5 run in NYC. If you sign up you'll get a new song every monday for the next 3 weeks and then a new one the forth week but on the tuesday...Which leads me to believe they may pull a Radiohead and allow us to buy a full album download that day as well.
Any predictions for covers this year? Since they did Tyrone in 2008, I'd expect we'd get at least one throw back cover. I'm hoping it's How The Gods Kill. That Leno was sick at T5.
I hope they do Tyrone again. MMJ are notorious for covers by the way<> so chances are high high..ly suspicious, muhahah
So if they are on the What stage, would the black keys open for them?
I don't really know much of MMJ. I really like Z but can't get into their other stuff as much. Nonetheless, I'm excited to see them because from everything I've been reading on this site, their show should be pretty crazy this year.

Watch the Okonokos DVD
This. I really liked what I heard of MMJ before I saw the DVD, but afterwards I could hardly listen to anything but MMJ.
This is the first message board I've ever been on, the only reason I joined is because I love Bonnaroo and wanted to read and talk about it all year long.
