Who Are You Taking To Prom...

Dust off your ruffled shirt and bow tie! If you stop by My Morning Jacket's website you'll notice there are a few new dates in early March...and these have a little twist to them. Looks like MMJ is getting nostalgic and fulfilling a Prom Dream. Two shows at the famed 40 Watt Club in Athen's, GA...what a setting...Here's what the website has to say:

For all of you who missed your prom back in 1956 or 1986 or 2006 for that matter, we will be hosting the 1st annual MMJ 2 night prom, March 6th and 7th, at the fabulous, prom-ready, 40 watt club in Athens! The first time we walked thru those hallowed 40 Watt doors we said to ourselves, "this place looks perfect for a prom!" And now the dream will be a reality. The theme is a futuristic/retro under the sea vibe - costumes (tuxes, suits, robots, mermaid and lobster costumes, anything prom/ocean related) are not only encouraged - they are MANDATORY!!! NO ONE will be admitted without proper attire!** There will be cake, balloons, fishnets, classic cars, chaperones, spankings, and a whole lotta shakin goin on - 2007 style up in this bitch ya'll. Come prepared to dance the night away, and make up for all the proms you missed...
