Bloggy Goodness: Welcome To ’09
We hope that you rang in 2009 with style last night. I spent mine with My Morning Jacket as they ripped the roof off the Garden with a monster three and half hour show that included some fantastic covers. So, as you manage to shake off your first hangover of the year I figured we’d cut right to the chase and unload a batch of links to get you through the day…

I’m pretty sure it was during Islands in the Stream, but Jim and Nicole went off on Ghetto Superstar… it was pretty badass
Islands In The Stream is the sample from Ghetto Superstar
