Have not been on Inforoo a lot but did manage to find a sleeper show for next month in Nashville. Brendan Benson from of The Racontours is doing a show at The Ryman with a bunch of other musicians among them Jack White and Jakob Dylan and a bunch of other people that have hella ties to the music industry for the David Lynch Foundation for meditation. It is weird to I noticed that AC Entertainment started promoting it in the las tweek on Facebook. I can only imagine what types of weirdness will go down at that show. Anyway anybody attending? among the people there will be Eric Burdon from The Animals so I am sure there will be a "House Of Rising Son" superjammy also some sort of Racontours segment of the show since a good part of the band will be there. Anyway it is weird check it out
Brendan Benson & Friends will host a benefit concert at Nashville, TN’s Ryman Auditorium on December 18. A number of special guests will join Benson during the performance, including his Raconteurs partner Jack White, Adriel Denae, The Animals’ Eric Burdon, Jessie Baylin, Butch Walker, The Posies/Big Star’s Ken Stringfellow and Jon Auer, Cory Chisel, Willy Mason and Young Hines. The Howlin’ Brothers will open the ngiht and perform with Benson. The show will benefit the David Lynch Foundation with proceeds going to veterans and at-risk children in the Nashville area.

Yeah actually his film was shown at Bonnaroo this past year did not make it to a myriad of reasons. Among them primarily trying to amputate my finger at camp. However I feel confident after a sufficent emetering/brainwashing session I will scan clear. I plan on cheating by going to a session in a sensory deprivation tank beforehand to give off faked brain signals (ask around people on her ewill vouch for this) that a choicy core sample of brain can be taken. The great mystery is what will happen at that point will David Lynch and Jack White consume my brains onstage in some kabal to plug into the Godhead? or merely make erasers out of it? By the way I quacking love David Lynch so I am really happy about this show and have high hopes for it.link

Jack White's been busy these days with his own solo project and recording with his supergroup the Dead Weather, but he hasn't forgotten about the Raconteurs, his band with Brendan Benson. Last night at Nashville's Ryman Auditorium, White and Benson reconvened on stage for a few songs at an all-star benefit for the David Lynch Foundation simply dubbed "Brendan Benson & Friends."

Dressed in black and rocking a rust-colored blazer, White garnered a standing ovation and inspired deafening applause from fans before he played a single note. That excitement only accelerated when the pair, backed by Benson's house band, launched into a blown-out run through Benson's power-pop stomper "Good to Me," a song the White Stripes covered as the B-side to "Seven Nation Army." They kept that energy going, jumping into Broken Boy Soldiers standout "Hands," with the same blunt force. In trademark fashion, on both tunes White choked out squealing howls of high-pitched feedback when trading licks with his bandmate. By the end of "Hands," White and Benson were sharing the mic, resting their heads on each others' shoulders as they belted out the final chorus.
Although Jack White is typically a shoe-in to steal the show whenever he takes the stage, many of Benson other "friends" came close. Georgia hard-rocker and in-demand producer Butch Walker galvanized the crowd on Benson's shuffling folk-pop ditty "What I'm Looking For." The Howlin Brothers opened the show with a spirited rendition of Sonny Terry, Brownie McGhee and Leadbelly's "How Long Blues" that featured accompaniment from Ricky Skaggs and weepy pedal steel lines courtesy of former longtime Bob Dylan sideman Bucky Baxter, a fixture onstage throughout the night. Baxter especially shined while backing Benson and his old boss's son, Jakob Dylan, on a faithful rendition of the Rolling Stones' "Loving Cup." And songwriter Jesse Baylin dueted with Benson on his tense tune "Pretty Baby" — one of the more moody moments of the evening.
Benson and White closed the evening with an elongated performance of the Raconteurs' signature tune "Steady as She Goes." "That's a tough act to follow, but I'm gonna do it anyway," Benson quipped as White left the stage. He then closed the show with a haunting approximation of Eric Burdon and the Animal's sinister, brackish blues-psych classic "When I Was Young."
