Why they might be annoying:

    They got their name due to the initials 'MMJ' being found in a jacket left in the burnt remains of a bar. Jim James thought that it meant 'My Morning Jacket.'

    They were going to tour as the Electric Mayhem from the Muppet Show, providing the actual music for the band but plans fell through. They also wrote a couple of songs for the project.
    They formed the basis of an entire episode of 'American Dad!'
    An episode of 'One Tree Hill' was named after one of their songs and had a couple of their other songs played during that episode.

Why they might not be annoying:

    Their album 'Z' was ranked at or near the top of many critics' 'best of' lists for 2005.
    They are perennial favorites at the popular annual Bonnaroo festival.
    They got to perform at New York City's Madison Square Garden to ring in 2009.
