My Morning Jacket – August 14th – Red Rocks

Estimated read time 4 min read

From the opening notes of “Wordless Chorus” to the closing feedback of “One Big Holiday,” My Morning Jacket dug deep into their vault on Friday night, touching on all seven of their studio releases. As always, the band was dressed to the nines, and Jim James, The Jacket’s charismatic front man, prowled the stage in a black and neon jacket, eyes concealed by oversized sunglasses. Gracefully tiptoeing the line between pure rock and roll and jamband, MMJ proved yet again why many call them the best live band in the business.

A light rain trickled down from a sagging, slate colored grey sky. A mostly older crowd—with some youngsters peppered in—ambled up the storied steps of Red Rocks. In between the rocks a colorful crowd was gathering, decked out multi-colored ponchos and rain jackets. While the air was a bit chilly for early July, the air smelled like sweet rain and Colorado’s finest as Neil Young delivered a monster set chock full of classics like “Old Man,” “Walk On,” “Cowgirl In The Sand,” “Unknown Legend,” and many many more.
