Barack Obama has his very own fans, thats for certain. It just so happens that many of his fans have fans of their own. The Dead have teamed up to lead their thousands of Deadhead fans young and old to join them in on the cause in playing a charity concert in their very own San Francisco, CA. Also doing a charity concert is My Morning Jacket frontman Jim James playing an acoustic set at Schubas Tavern in Chicago, IL for $100 a ticket. Havent been paying attention to politics? Wondering what all the fuss is about? Find out more about Barack Obama here.

MMJ >Panic at the Disco< Radiohead

My Morning Jacket has been steadily chugging from the west to the mid-west along their fall tour in the United States with their last stop coming up in Chicago on October 9 & 10 before they head off to Europe for a brief tour. My Morning Jacket will then return back by way of New York City to play a New Year’s Eve show at Madison Square Garden. I cannot even imagine how unbelievable that show will be. My hat is tipped to the promoter who thought of this one. Now I am going to say something a bit controversial…

My Morning Jacket is the next thing to Radiohead.

Yes, a lot of bands have strived for the comparison from Panic at the Disco to Coldplay, to all those other bands releasing albums at fan-picked prices and those who attempt to cover songs off Kid A, seriously, who wouldnt want to be Radiohead? But you cant just BE Radiohead, that’s silly. Although Panic at the Disco thinks otherwise. In their interview with NME they were quoted as saying, “Emo is bullshit. We want to be the new Radiohead.” Now a band who yearns to fill the colossal footsteps Radiohead has left must change their original genre of music as well as change their own style consistently from record to record. The music must fill the atmosphere, the music must have depth and substance, it must be experimental, it must be creative and, well, good. Panic at the Disco will never be compared to Radiohead by anyone except themselves. They are bad. So bad. My Morning Jacket is akin to Radiohead by means of their echoing vocals, atmoshperic isntrusmentals, and where the have come from their humble southern rock beginnings. I am not trying to say they are exactly like Radiohead, but if Radiohead were suddenly kidnapped by aliens and some band had to take their place in order to save the world, it would be My Morning Jacket.
