Here in Milwaukee, we've only been graced with the musical presence that is My Morning Jacket but two times since the release of the critically-acclaimed "Z" in 2005 -- one of which was at Summerfest, of all places, and both of which were nearly two years ago now.

We've heard bits and pieces of the forthcoming "Evil Urges" (June 10, ATO Records) on NPR's "Spring Music Preview," which is why we're thrilled that the band decided to include Milwaukee on its summer tour. Well, technically MMJ doesn't arrive at The Riverside Theater until fall -- Friday, Oct. 3, to be exact -- but the tour kicks off June 20 in New York.

In the meantime, you can see the Louisville five-piece on "Saturday Night Live" this Saturday, May 10.

Tickets are $31 (general admission) and go on sale Friday, May 16 at noon at The Riverside box office, on the Web at www.riversidetheater.org and www.tickets.com, or by calling (414) 286-3663 or (800) 511-1552.
