Back in 1999, when webcast streaming technologies were just developing, unknown local band My Morning Jacket’s set from a benefit show at Headliner’s was broadcast over the internet and captured by an intrepid fan. Thirteen years later My Morning Jacket has blossomed into an international touring act, so it’s crazy to look back on the footage from that night, which may be rough but gives great insight into just how far the band has come. This video playlist starts with a raw version of One Big Holiday and continues with I Will Sing You Songs, War Begun, Old September Blues, Evelyn Is Not Real, The Bear,  The Dark and It’s About Twilight Now. Take a look…

Jim James and bassist Two-Tone Tommy are the only MMJers in this video who are still in the band.
