Wednesday April 19, 2006 Matt Ingenthron's Stream of Consciousness
Wednesday April 19, 2006 The Raconteurs may just be the most interesting band I'm looking forward to seeing this summer (rumor has it Radiohead will be in LA too, but that's not been announced yet to my knowledge). The Raconteurs are coming though.
For those who don't care at all about music, but care more about technology, you may want to check out the website. It might make you nostalgic. It's almost funny, since it doesn't even have the extended IBM character set-- you know-- the thing that made ancient DOS programs suddenly have dropshadows on 'windows'.
Anyway, The Raconteurs consist of (in the order on their website) Jack Lawrence, Brendan Benson, Jack White, and Patrick Keeler. Jack White (White Stripes) and Brendan Benson already have had amazing careers. The other two are from The Greenhornes. I've been listening to Steady as She Goes mixed in with some other things most of this afternoon. I highly recommend checking it out.
