Have to admit it didn't blow me away. But I'm pretty particular about the stuff I hang on my wall. The only DW poster I've liked enough to buy was the little girl in the flaming tire swing. And I've yet to find a Stripes poster that knocks my socks off.

Neither of their names are Jeff if you are talking about the brotherhood. Jake and Jamin are their names.

unless you happen to have a friend named Jeff that put his crotch in your face.

Merch line was crazy. Thankfully the opened up a back door and we got in pretty quick. We only waited maybe 20 minutes for merch but I bet some people were in line for an hour or more. The line went down both sets of staircases and in to the main lobby. Hatch print was less than exciting, especially compared to the gigantic RJ that was available. Print run of 265 and would say they sold out but couldn't say 100%. Here is a crappy iphone pic:

Great show. Pokey amazing. They got a standing ovation. JEFF was amazing as well and they got a partial standing ovation. The Raconteurs, well if you've seen them before then you know what to expect. Pretty standard set list. Ended with Carolina Drama. Not a lot of banter. Typical "you having a good time", "thanks for coming out". Brendan looked completely lost on a couple of songs. Looks like they are still working out some kinks. Nothing new and no covers. Was hoping for something new and maybe an album announcement. Had a great time and can't wait until the next time. Cheers!

EDIT: Oh yeah, it was professionally filmed as well. They had signs up stating this as well. Interesting.

He threw his crotch in my face and I didn't even know his name. For shame.

How long were you in line? I heard people waited an hour or more. Crazy.
Sorry you missed out. We got there super early. When we got to the front there were 180ish posters left.
