My Morning Jacket was on fire at the Chastain Park Amphitheater in Atlanta, GA., seriously a small fire did break out that had ticket holders pouring their drinks in efforts to put it out. Staff members rushed in and extinguished the flames that were seen all across the amphitheater. The energy was not only with the band, but the crowd. The crowd had more energy then I had seen in a long time at a show. The light show lite up the night sky so much so that people were sitting in the parking lot just listening and watching the light show due to the show being SOLD OUT. What a great night!
