Wow, this years Bonnaroo had a great lineup. The performances are all over YouTube, but here are a few that I thought were great:
Metallica - Fade To Black:
Pearl Jam - Black:
Raconteurs - Carolina Drama:
Jack White and his buddies are back with a new Raconteurs album and if its every bit as rocking as this first single we are in for a good one. This video uses the old “still shot” as a moving picture technique to great effect as the band seem to be rocking out in jagged, herky jerky motions, just as any good band should:
Fresh off of his latest White Stripes album, Jack White is already knee deep in a new Raconteurs record. Here are some thoughts on the recordings from White and bandmate Brendan Benson:
“The ‘teurs have a lot of new songs in the works people, the writing and structure of them has dissipated and reinvigorated many times over since we came home from our last shows.”
“The new songs are coming along strong. I’d hate to even begin to describe them,” said Jack. “It would be like dancing about architecture,” Brendan jotted in before Jack becoming more specific, ” or singing about girls.“
No info on titles or release dates, but the band seems excited about everything so far, which is good enough for me.
