This year, New Year's Eve in New York City will have something to rival the annual Times Square ball drop as a prelude to U-Melt's
traditional late-night show:
My Morning Jacket will ring in 2009 with a concert at Madison Square Garden. New York City's largest arena has featured some fantastic NYE shows in the past with Phish and The Black Crowes turning in notable shows. In fact, two years ago, My Morning Jacket was slated to play MSG with The Black Crowes and the North Mississippi Allstars but had to cancel when lead singer Jim James came down with pneumonia.
The rumor mill has Yo La Tengo and M Ward opening the evening. If that bill comes to fruition, it will put together some of the most memorable pairings from
this year's SXSW Festival.
