Raconteurs last night

[obildy]

Any feed back from the show?  Did they go on on time?  How late did they play?

[Charlie Nakatestes, Japanese Golfer]

I wasn't there and I didn't listen to it on NPR, but I can tell you they stunk.

[DeathFromAbove1979]

HIt the stage almost exactly at 10, opened with Consoler of the Lonely, ended with Blue Veins at 11. Hit the stage about 4 or 5 minutes later, played a 4 song encore
 
 Many Shades of Black
 Salute Your Salution
 Broken Boy Soldier
 Carolina Drama
 
 Off stage at 11:30
 
 It was phenomenal, but they didn't play 5 on the 5, Together, or Attention. Hopefully they'll play it tonight.

Really enjoyed last night's show!

It was on NPR?  Will it be on NPR tonight???

Very good show. Not at all the bland supergroup performance I was expecting.  The live setting adds a great deal to the songs.  Lots of "rockin' out" moments.  That Jack White guy is talented; I think he just might go far in the music biz.  
 
 Good to see the Director (and to walk away from the encounter unscathed). Nice to meet callat as well.  He seems like a decent fellow for being an evil Live Nation bot.

that was my first time seeing them and i really enjoyed it. it was VERY loud and i was far away from the speakers so take those ear plugs.
 
 i'd skip the black lips, i didnt care for them at all

unfortunately, posters #3 through 7 are wrong.  although they were there and actually witnessed the performance, their opinions are null and void.  poster #2, charlie, has already dismissed the show out of hand without having heard a single note.  
 
 you can read his other concert reviews in this month's Maxim.

Great show! As for loud, most 930 shows sound too loud to me, this one wasn't any worse. But at least having it loud keeps people from talking through the set.

 Can anyone figure out the underlying file reference?

So...not good?

Good to meet you as well.  Though I am not as unscathed from my evening out with the Director.
 
 I completely agree that this is a band largely benefited from a live setting.  I think they're records are pretty boring, but live, it was definitely a fun time.

you won't be able to, that's DRM for ya.  your best bet is to play the stream and record it in an audio editor (soundforge, peak, bias, etc).

only thing "not good" is dismissing a show you haven't been to  :p   i'll post my opinion of the show tomorrow, after i've seen it.

[obildy]
