    I looked forward to Margo Price's set, but the audience only showed enthusiasm if she swore as if swearing is a trend. It reminded me of Seattle concerts which are disappointing in that way. Jack busted the drummer's drums in the first song, and I almost left, but I rely on leaving within crowds for safety so I stuck with it. I liked lazaretto and sixteen candles. Jack was very energetic, but it felt like the tone was a beat off. Something was off kilter a little or maybe I don't know the music well enough.
    Why did the broken drum make you want to leave?

    I was surprised. Why would he do that? It was in the beginning after the Seattle Stare in front of Margo Price so I was in a bad mood.  I didn't leave so I'm all talk.

    Show was amazing! He messed with Carla (the drummer) the whole show. She even hit the neck of his guitar once lol.... loved the interaction between the two. You could tell the crowd was more amped up for  White Stripe stuff, but I thought Jack's energy never waivered. He was playing every song like it was his last.

    I really need to see him live for the first time. 
    contender for best show I've ever seen. this coming from the guy that doesn't like or even hates a lot of his solo stuff. 
    Same here. Not the most recent one, but back in I think 2015 or 2016 - definitely one of the best ever. The one I saw recently would have been really good, but it undersold and the crowd sucked, so that really spoiled the whole thing for me, and, apparently, for Jack White.
    Was that the Vancouver show that was right around the PJ Seattle ones?
    Yes. Just too many empty seats in a too-big venue, and too many casual fans who just wanted White Stripes songs I think. He should have moved the stage up to the centre of the arena and played half the arena instead of trying to sell out the full concert set up.
    it is crazy that jack can't sell out an arena.  
    I agree. Although I think he can in some places. Not in Vancouver, obviously! Now I'm worried he just won't come back. He can be a little bit pissy about stuff like this. But when he played an appropriate sized venue (outdoor), it was one of the greatest shows ever, and the crowd was incredible.

    What is Omnegang?
    But yeah, in some places he can draw a bigger crowd. I think he managed to sell well in some of the cities where he booked arenas on this tour... definitely not all of them though. I dunno, I think he may be a little too niche for this day and age, for big shows (outside of festivals). As the White Stripes days get further and further behind him, he's going to have to pull something pretty major out of his ass to get the crowds back, IMO. An actual smash hit song or three... basically to do what Seven Nation Army did for him.

    Mine is scheduled to arrive tomorrow. I guess I'll take y'all's advice and give at least one spin before deciding (or not) to sell it. Of course, that probably means I'll lose money on the deal if I do decide to sell it since it won't be sealed. Oh well. Maybe Brendan Benson grew a pair between Broken Boy Soldiers and this one.
