The White Stripes - Live At The Patriot Center, 7/28
Well, I finally got to see them, had a great time, and it was a very good show. What kept it from being great was that there seemed to be either audio or monitor problems that really kept the band from flowing from song to song, but all-in-all I enjoyed myself tremendously. I haven't been to a bang your head, loud, in your face concert in a while and that's what we got from Jack and Meg. They played most of their hits, I love hearing "Death Letter" live and wished they played "Let's Build a Home." The opening act, Dan Sartain, was pretty good, mix of bluesy/rockabilly/punk rock and definitely a good sound before the Stripes took stage.
Next up, Kings of Leon in October at Ram's Head Live. They'll also be at The 9:30 Club for two nights in September, tix on sale soon. Now I just hope The Black Keys go on tour. What about you, any must see shows on the horizon?
Lollapalooza this weekend.

Nice. Virgin Festival is this weekend, too.
ReplyDeletelolla day 1 was great...sydney says highlights were bang, bang, bang; the fratellis; son volt; and the polyphonic spree.
