This was the full 12X digital zoom. The back of the stage was a giant digital clock counting down, or something.

This was as close as I could get the stage … And that’s WITH about a 4X zoom if I remember correctly.

I believe I took this shot during their song called “The Moan.” One thing’s for sure, Auerbach’s got a bluesy howl that’s as authentic as they come.

This drum set didn’t stop shaking during the hour-long set.

Because I was too busy picking my jaw up off the floor. Because it’s hard to hit the buttons on the camera while you’re bouncing up and down. Because they didn’t stand still long enough to get a shot that wouldn’t be at least this blurry.

This dude can absolutely wail. The energy and full-range attack of Jack White, with the blues-heavy riffology of Jimmy Page.

… any guy who can still have this much fun when it’s 107F.

Bob Mould was 1/3 of Hüsker Dü. Today he fronts the Bob Mould Band, who played the ACL Festival after the Kaiser Chiefs. Fantastic show. Tons of fun. Brad and I got right up to the fence. Made you wanna hop all night.
