My wife and I went to Rock the Garden to see Booker T. Actually, I went to see Booker T and she came along.* I had to beg her to stay for the last band. Hearing this seemed to help my case.

Pretty decent video/audio for some schlub with a handheld; wish I could claim it.
*At 7+ months pregnant, it was hard to convince her to go to the show in the first place, "But it's raining and we'll have to sit on the ground!"
Apparently, "a good MMJ concert can recalibrate your gut, it can change you..." Umm, that may be a bit much, but they did put on a hell of a show. Ms. Petrusich reviewed Circuital for Pitchfork.
BTW, the album was nominated for a Grammy for "Best Alternative Album". So was their previous album, Evil Urges, but I know how we feel about those sorts of things around here so take the "accolade" with a grain of salt.
I enjoyed this. I haven't really gotten into the band, but "Holdin' on to Black Metal" caught my ear.
