The Raconteurs @ Kool Haus

June 5, 2008 @ Kool Haus - Toronto, ON
The Raconteurs rolled into town last Thursday night for a laid back performance at the Kool Haus, in support of their newly (and very quietly) released album Consolers of the Lonely. Remembering that, hey, this isn’t the White Stripes, it’s still very difficult to tear your eyes away from Jack White from the minute he walks onto the stage. At the risk of sounding all fangirl, this was the fourth time I’ve photographed him (with both The Raconteurs and White Stripes) and I still feel privileged every time.
While I’m not going to review the show here (I was shooting for someone else), hearing “Together” was my highlight of the night, even though Jack’s voice was sounding a little rough (his doctor told him to lay off the vocals for a while, but he soldiered on).
I’ll be down in Tennessee for Bonnaroo this week, where I hope to catch The Raconteurs again. After the festival, things should become more active on this site with plenty of content from down there.
