If you like live music and have an iPhone, I've got some great news for you. Yesterday the Live Music Archive iPhone App went live in the App Store on iTunes.
For just $1.99 you'll get access to over 70,000 live shows by more than 2,800 bands including Bela Fleck, Bisco, DBT, DTB, & DSO, Further, G. Love, McLovins, MMJ, North Mississippi Allstars, Phil & Friends, Robert Randolph, Soulive, STS9, SCI, TLG, and Umphrey's McGee.
And perhaps best of all, you'll have over 6,700 Grateful Dead shows (and counting) at your fingertips wherever you go!
Like most apps this one has a few shortcomings — it'd be nice to group shows by year and sort by rating or date added, and of course you can't use other apps while you're listening — but for less than $2 it's kinda hard to complain.
Download the Live Music Archive iPhone App on iTunes now.

NEW! Shop for My Morning Jacket Concert Tickets on Jamtopia.
I read a ton of Bonnaroo reviews this year, and the one thing I really wish I could've seen was this.
About halfway in to an epic performance of nearly four hours, My Morning Jacket announced “up-and-comer” Kirk Hammett — yes, Kirk Hammett from Metallica — who joined the band for a rousing rendition of what's become MMJ's signature song, One Big Holiday.
The six best minutes of live music I've seen this year.

I've been hoping to post this since I first read about it, but it took a few days for a remotely watchable video to surface. This one's not perfect, but it does the trick for now. If you like what you hear, head over to etree where you can download the entire My Morning Jacket 2008 Bonnaroo set.

Welcome back Bob Ferdman!
Bob's back, this time featuring festival-favorites My Morning Jacket. Bob has previously written for Rolling Stone and JamBands.com.
Hey again. You may recall my first post about the Wilco Winter Residency. And if not, I hope you'll go back and give it a once-over.
Today I'm here to talk a bit about My Morning Jacket.
I once saw these guys open for Wilco. And what a night that was. On record these guys don't sound near as loud or mind blowing as they do on stage. Not to say they're not good on record. It's just that on stage, they are complete beasts.
The clip above is one of my all-time favorites, “One Big Holiday.” There are plenty of great videos of this tune, but this one has a good combination of video and sound quality, plus a nice long jam if that's your thing.
If you haven’t yet been exposed to MMJ, well, just check them out when they come through town (assuming you can score tickets before the inevitable sell-out). There's a reason they've moved up from the festival side stages to headliners the last couple of years — it's because they “melt faces,” so to speak.
Props to CoolLikeMiles for sharing this video.
One Big Holiday originally appeared on My Morning Jacket's third studio album, It Still Moves from 2003. It's also on their 2006 live album Okonokos
