    Loving the album start to finish. Looking forward to the tour. Now if Pearl Jam would just announce dates I could plan my Summer/Fall.

    That's why I didn't purchase concert tickets since NIN/Soundgarden in March. I want to save the money for PJ. I don't want to know that there's an awesome band coming to Toronto other than PJ and get too impulsive about it.

    My first impression? It doesn't top Brothers (but I'm not sure they can) but a step up from El Camino. Probably my favorite album of the year so far. Jack White's coming soon though...

    It's got depth. My favorite track right now is probably In Time. Great instrumentation.

    I listened a couple times. Not bad so far. I really like the 1st track.

    It's ok. Far cry from their usual sound. A little Floyd sounding.

    I did. Great show. Only three songs from the new album played. It's up to you now, Gotta get away, and Fever. 21 total songs played including three song encore. Over at 11. Cage the Elephant was good too.

    Just was asked to go to the show next Friday in Detroit with my sister. She said they are great tickets, like 6 rows up in lower bowl, side/front of stage. Was really hoping to get to this show, but couldn't justify spending any money. So I'll be repaying her by taking her to the Pearl Jam show next month.

    Hitting up the Detroit show tonight, too! 3rd time seeing the Keys, very excited! They always put on a solid, no-frills rock show. Just as excited for Cage the Elephant, too, as I've been wanting to see them and haven't before.

    Show last night was awesome. A lot of sound comes out of those two, but I am glad they have bass and keyboards now. Really tight show. They played a Bob Seger song for Detroit, Ramblin' Man.

    I wish I would have seen more of Cage of elephant. Only caught their last two songs, but they sounded great. Come a Little Closer is a really fun song with a large crowd all jumping during the chorus.

    And really cool to see the Joe set up for a concert. Gave me a good idea of what next month will be like for PJ

    Last night was such a fantastic show, one of my favorites of the year actually, which surprised me! My boyfriend and I both agreed how we always tend to (wrongfully) underestimate the Keys...thinking the show is gonna be fun, good, but nothing spectacular--and then it's absolutely spectacular! They don't need spectacle--they just rock out. And it sounded fantastic last night! Crowd was particularly amazing last night, really loud and high-energy...added a lot to the show! Cage the Elephant were perfect openers too, they give 110% when they perform and sounded great. Always a pleasure seeing the Keys and awesome to be in the Joe for the first time :)

    I was really surprised on how great CTE was in Columbus. I would love see what they could do as a headliner.

    Been meaning to see them for awhile and they blew away any and all expectations! I'd LOVE to see them headline a club show...they'd destroy!

    Absolutely phenomenal performances from both the Black Keys and Cage the Elephant in Toronto last night... My ears are suffering, but my legs aren't, thanks to that prime spot at the rail :D

    Heading down from Maine tomorrow to catch the Black Keys and CTE concert in Boston...last time I saw the Black Keys they rocked the house in Portland, ME. Can't wait to see them again...will be just off to the side of the stage about 10 rows back at the Garden. It'll be a late night ride back home, but will be worth it!

    Just got free floor tix to the Black Keys on Sunday night at United Center. Even better is that CTE is opening! Can't wait.
