I reckon I'll go to this but was anybody else hugely let down by the album?

Think I'll pass. Already a busy week with Pearl Jam & Radiohead.

Good news for people who like good news.
Does anyone know when tickets are going on sale?

after hearing 'steady as she goes', i kinda knew what to expect so wasn't massively let down by the album
it certainly has it's moments but overall it's a bit underwhelming
was hoping for something a bit more challenging and exciting considering white and benson are the main players
maybe the album's a grower though...?
certainly on first listen it did very little for me

Wasn't disappointed with the album but wasn't hugely impressed either. Only really listened to it a couple of times in the first week I got it.
Off to Pearl Jam & Radiohead that week so may give it a miss

From the stuff I've heard it's quite a turgid affair. Never been a fan of Jack White/White Stripes but love B Benson's 'Lapalco' album.

Eric-tickets on sale Friday the 23rd. But at €33.20 and then a booking fee they are none too cheap

It's just a solid unpretentious rock album. Quality stuff, not earth shattering or nowt. Should be fun live. My least fave tracks sound like Benson's work.

yeah, fun. Jack white will tell a few jokes, brendan benson will do des bishop impersonations and the other two will perform acts of juggling and acrobatics. plus free popcorn for the first 100 payers.
