    My wife & I were in Lexington with my daughter for parents' weekend, and I had to miss the Cincinnati show. I heard it was awesome. Some friends of mine ran into the band after the show in Covington.

    I hope so. I would pay to travel and see them again.

    Such a good live show.  Really great.  Any version of Jack White is terrific.

    My top 4 all time live acts are Pearl Jam, Muse, Jack White and Cage the elephant.  Cage is in their prime I think, but the rest are still amazing.  Probably rank them this way at this very moment live: 1) Pearl Jam 2) Cage 3) Jack 4) Muse
    saw CTE in a shitty sounding venue opening for QOTSA before CTE released their album. Couldn't hear a damn thing they were playing. They've only been back once since (for their second record) and it sold out in nanoseconds. 

    Still choked I haven't seen them properly.

    Am I the only one that things CTE is entirely unoriginal?  Every song I hear I feel like I can tie back directly back to someone else.  Coincidentally, it really crystallized with me with Ain't No Rest for the Wicked.  That seems like a bootleg of Effect and Cause by the White Stripes.

    that's easily their worst song. I find with every album they evolve into something familiar yet different. that's one thing I like about them the most. I don't find them derivative at all.

    I have yet to hear anything by them that impresses me.

    I'm not wrong.. listen to those two songs.  It's worse than listening to a Greta Van Fleet song and claiming they don't know who Zeppelin is.

    New Portland date announced. Does anyone know if there's a Vault presale? I recently canceled.

    Don't know much about The Raconteurs, but i'll check this out.

    Thanks for the heads-up.

    If anyone is interested in the files for the ACL show, send me a PM.  Other than missing a very little bit of the first song because I was an idiot and accidentally hit mute, all is there.  Sounds good.

    Cool! I'm not a Vault member. Anyone have a lead on the presale code?

    Also, venue site states "$2 from every ticket will be donated to Pearl Jam's Vitalogy Foundation." Awesome!
