Is it too early to make New Year's Eve plans? I already know that this is where I want to be:

I simply can't think of a better way to ring in 2009.

MMJ's newest studio effort, Evil Urges, was released on June 10th. I've been playing it incessantly - yes, that's including "Highly Suspicious", despite all the thumbs-down comments we keep getting on our video of the song from their Houston show in March. It's an unexpected piece of brilliance featuring more than a few nods to TAFKAP. A little goofy, sure, but how could you possibly not grin at lyrics like "peanut butter pudding surprise/Pulitzer prize"?

Update: Want to know what MMJ played during their late-night set at Bonnaroo this year? Check out the setlist after the jump - but be warned...I almost became physically ill when I saw it. Can't believe I missed such a stellar set!
