Re: Raconteurs at Michigan International Speedway Sept. 17,
Wow, hell of a show. On our way back to the hotel, but will throw up some pics soon. Didn't keep track of the setlist, so someone else can fill in the blanks: Top Yourself, Salute, BBS, Switch/Spur, Level, Together, Blue Veins, Shades of Black, Steady, Hands, Carolina. I'm sure I'm missing something/getting something wrong.

Re: Raconteurs at Michigan International Speedway Sept. 17,
Well, they have an updated RRS menu that includes 7" singles up through the ICP single and have changed the limited edition section from listing the Wanda Joke, etc. to saying to ask the RRS staff about the availability of limited edition or package items. I'll scan the new one and put it in the archive soon, I scanned the SXSW one and put it up previously. Other than than, yes, only the ICP tri. I went back at 6pm to check out the line and they were going through the line telling folks they had sold out of both WS 7" singles, FFB single,BBB single, and all of their 45rpm adapters. I'd say they did very well and for 7 hours straight they had a line of no less than 25-30 people and for most of the day at least 50 people in line.
For everyone else, I'm working on uploading pics/videos I took during the day. Not much, mainly Black Belles, Pujol, and Jeff the Brotherhood. Maybe a couple Black Milk, those didn't turn out so well.

The Black Belles
The Belles were the first band we saw for the day and because I was fresh I did the most with them in terms of pictures, etc. Overall, they were okay. They are still getting used to playing in public for crowds. Still very stiff and looking to each other for reassurance. At one point Olivia made a comment about how hard it was to play and keep their hats on because it was windy. They were very generous signing autographs and taking pictures throughout the day for anyone who asked. Most of their songs didn't really grab me but I happened to roll video on a catchy one that I look forward to hearing a studio version of, it's embedded below from YouTube. They seemed most comfortable playing this one I think. Olivia has some Gwen Stefani characteristics to her voice at times. I wish more of their songs were like this one, the guitar riff is catchy.
