Any thoughts on the setlist? Its live on the radio and its a highly anticipated concert, so I wonder if he is going to pull out any tricks for tonight. He might even talk about that picture at the cubs game :lolno:

Just a quick note before the show starts...the poster is badass if you're a Wilco or City of Chicago fan & @Bob_Roberts is a badass! :-)

That was easily they best post-WS Jack White show I have ever seen. The crowd was fantastic (nary a cell phone to e seen). Jack played with tempo all night, creating what felt like off the cuff intros, worked in some scorching Muddy Waters, some Hendrix and god knows what else. They played fast and loose on a number of tracks, yet still were sharp as can be. Just a great night.

What an incredible marathon of a show. We had Astro, I cut like a buffalo, just one drink, and what seemed like the longest Top Yourself in history. Question: did he play a couple lines from Death Letter during Ball & Biscuit?

I almost forgot to mention Blue Orchid. Blown away.

This show was fire.
Holy hell.
He was possessed right?
For like a good portion we saw something that wasn't Jack White, right?
That was nuts.
If there's anything good about me, I'm the only one who knows.
