I saw 'em last night at the Verizon (nee Aerial) Theatre in Houston. Fantastic show. Jack actually stopped playing and singing when some assholes started crowd surfing and crushing people in the front row, said "I'll wait till this is over," and then yelled something at the surfers. Meg's one handed drumming was phenomenal and Jack is such a fucking good player. There is more truth in his playing than in anything by any modern "blues" guitarists.
Whirlwind Heat was interesting, but not something I'd purchase. The synth is not necessary.
