John came down yesterday for the Eagles of Death Metal concert at the Lincoln Theatre. What a stellar show. Not familiar? Eagles is the brain child of Jesse Hughes and Josh Homme. Jesse is good ol' southern boy with down home religion, guilt, and an on/off moral switch. Upon entering the Lincoln theatre we were greeted by the delectable sound of the Duke Spirit, an English rock band that hails from London (where else). This was a great way to start off the show. I was quite impressed by the female lead. And I love the song "This Ship Was Built to Last". I've never heard of these guys before but apparently they play Letterman soon.
Well Jesse came on to stage with the same veracity of Jerry Lee Lewis. It was sexy. It was spellbinding. It was sensational! I haven't seen stage presence like that in a while. And this isn't the fake, make me want to throw-up, forced emo presence. This was something truly special. It was a great show in a nice venue. Solid A-. I could have enjoyed a slightly longer show. However, breaking three strings shows true talent.
Along the way I took some pictures. They are fun. Check 'em!
This was just the beginning
