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.
