Favorite moment: When I could hear the instruments separately and Jim's voice was recognizable and base let the other musical instruments be heared. @

I enjoyed Jim James along with my morning jacket far more amusing.Music before the show was downer,wasted all the groovy momentum I had before I walked in.Then comes the first performance,she was great but not for starting such a night,it was too slow and sad.The main performance,the music was too laud and distorted,maybe the place was too small for that band,but I could hardly hear Jim.His solo and slow performance was just as great as always.

One of the best concerts I've ever been to, and I've been to many. Amazing combination of sound, showmanship and lights. I had a blast, and even got a little emotional during "I want a New Life." Can't wait to see MMJ.

Not sure if it was because we were siting in the balcony but the sound had a mid-range frequency that made my ears hurt. The show started off strong with the first 2 songs and then Jim started to stretch out the songs to fill the set. The jams took on a Sun Ra eliminate which mixed with the bad sound was just irritating. Since his solo album is such a chill groove oriented mix I thought the show was going to be the same. Don't get me wrong, I love a good jam and I love when My Morning Jacket stretch out and have fun but this night it didn't work. The acoustic numbers were great and the lighting was fantastic but overall not a great experience.

even if you've never heard of the man, you would probably agree that jim james puts on a spectacular show. he is charismatic on stage, personable with the crowd - a true human - and his voice is amazing. he sounded mystical and played several instruments fluidly. his band was fantastic as well, and you could definitely feel the positive energy and chemistry they all had together. beautiful show...simply majestic.

Favorite moment: Jim James "fake" sax solo. @

For me it was all about the sound. Of course, rock shows are loud and I love it, but when the decibel level reaches a point where notes and instrumentation dynamics are indistinguishable, then it's no longer enjoyable. In this case, it was literally painful. The main chunk of the show was great. While I am picky and would've changed a few things about the mix, it felt pretty darn good. However, when they came back out for the encore, it was obvious that the front of house level had been cranked. Nothing sounded good. I couldn't distinguish words, guitar parts, or anything for that matter. However I had been sucked in to the main part of the show was gone. I love Jim James and I loved seeing him live. It just ended up being anti climatic for me because sound is so important... and the end of the show sounded painful.

Outstanding show. I've seen Jim James 14 times with MMJ and once with Monsters Of Folk and he just get's better and better every time I see him. He is just a remarkable front man or solo man or side man.
