The Raconteurs at Voodoo Fest in New Orleans (Photos, Setlist & Concert Review)
Members: Jack White, Jack Lawrence,Brendan Benson, Patrick Keeler http://theraconteursfans.com http://www.theraconteurs.com Voodoo Fest was wise to have The Raconteurs close out the main stage, because their performance was the best of the weekend. During the show, Jack White remarked that he had been in Detroit the day before and that his hometown, New Orleans, and Memphis all had the same kind of vibe. After “Rich Kid Blues” Jack silenced the crowd with a dark, dirty, ever-so-slow guitar solo preceding “Blue Veins” that showed the mesmerized crowd that he was indeed a true original. During his solo, his head tilted slightly and a small smile crept across his face as if he was thinking…

My Chemical Romance at Voodoo Fest 10/28/11 (Photos & Review)
Gerard Way Mikey Way Ray Toro Frank Iero http://www.mychemicalromance.com http://www.myspace.com/mychemicalromance http://youtube.com/mychemicalromance http://www.mychemicalromance.com/store http://twitter.com/MCRofficial The Voodoo Experience was the last stop on My Chemical Romance’s 2011 US tour. Their hour long set was a dazzling array of their greatest hits. MCR are experts at being able to command a large stage. In fact, the bigger the stage, the harder they rock. In celebration of Voodoo and Halloween, the band wore medieval costumes that worked well with the red, orange, and yellow lighting. Gerard rightfully fished for positive feedback from the crowd by asking, “Did any other band dress up for you other than the same ‘ol rock ‘n roll shit?” Die-hard MCR…

Odd Future Screws Up at Voodoo Fest 10/30/11 (Commentary, Review and Photos)
I was one of the photographers in the Odd Future press pit at the Voodoo Experience this past weekend. This is my take on the events that happened during their performance, the performance itself, and how the two relate. HERE is a link to what happened in case you haven’t heard. DJ Syd tha Kid started off the performance by entering the stage alone. She had an engaging smile and got the crowd pumped. It didn’t take long for chaos to ensue after the boys of Odd Future strutted onto the stage. Tyler the Creator instigated the chaos by going on a short tirade about how much he hates photographers. In…

Quintron and Miss Pussycat at Voodoo Fest 10/28/11 (Photos)
http://www.quintronandmisspussycat.com/ Quintron and Miss Pussycat were the most unique performers of this year’s Voodoo Fest. Quintron is a New Orleans local who is known as a one-man-band. Miss Pussycat is his wife. Quintron is a patented inventor of many of the instruments he uses when performing. The car shown in the pictures below is an organ/synthesizer combo. Somehow Quintron is able to play the organ, synthesizer, high-hat, wah-wah pedal, and sing all at once. His wife also sings and plays maracas.
