If you’ve ever wondered what an animated version of Widespread Panic would look like, wonder no more as we’ll get to see John Bell’s multi-colored beard and Jojo’s signature baseball
We must be approaching festival season because the next gigs for three of the five bands in this week’s piece are at festivals. We’ve got a healthy dose of Grateful Dead this week with segments from both Burlington’s Dead Sessions and Zen Tricksters. We’ve also got a tune from RAQ’s return as well as Jim James lending some lead vocals to the Preservation Hall Jazz Band and a new My Morning Jacket tune that does not feature James on lead vocals.

And we continue to take all the selected tracks, normalize them, create some simple fades and put it into one easy to download MP3 for you.

HT Contributor Wade Wilby let me know that this was a good segment to include this week as friends of HT Adam King and Christina Durfee both contribute some top notch vocals. Nice Bobby impressions Kinger. Looks like this ensemble doesn’t have any future gigs on the books as of now.

Epic One Liner of the Week: “There is no Sayid.” – Jack
Lost My Mind Just a Couple of Times: 1) The subtitled version of Titanic wasn’t nearly as good as the original. 2) It’s getting harder by the day to understand the rules of the smoke monster. I find routinely myself asking “why didn’t he just kill them right there,” but then they go and make up a new rule. READ ON for this week’s recap and discussion points…
Just as quickly as it started, My Morning Jacket’s ten-show Spring Tour came to a close on Sunday night at the LC Outdoor Pavilion in Columbus, Ohio. Over the course of the run, the group stuck pretty close to the vest in terms of setlists although the order of songs did change from night to night. But that’s not to say they didn’t treat each audience to a one-timer or two.

For this edition of The Number Line we’ve compiled all ten setlists – via the MMJ Archive – threw them into a spreadsheet and came up with a bunch of stats that we think you’ll find interesting. Not only that, we also looked at every YouTube clip from the tour and linked only the best ones in the setlist section of the post after the jump along with links to the available audio on the Live Music Archive. Basically, we put together everything you need to know about MMJ’s Spring Tour. Enough from me, let’s get to the stats…

37 – Different Songs Played
25 – Most Songs Played at One Show (4/21 and 4/28)

Perhaps only a fan who truly appreciates Graham Parker as much for his non-conformist attitude as his aptitude with a pop tune might find the unconventional approach of his April 24th Vermont show satisfying. In a sojourn through his independent discography of the 80's and 90's, the transplanted Brit spent most of his 90 minutes on stage picking and choosing tunes like "Bean Counter," from Acid Bubblegum, and offering a handful of culls from his newly released Imaginary Television (the source of the sole stage production in the form of a small TV on a barstool center stage).
