Hands in the air: What better way to show one's affection for live music?
In a perfect world, it's been studied and written about in academic journals, this correlation between outstretched limbs and good concerts. As for us, we'll unscientifically declare it to be true. Judging from the stories born at the five shows below, these photos from the HN archive further prove our point.
As we look back through what we've captured and stored on Flickr — coverage of Nebraska bands, touring groups that stopped in Lincoln or Omaha and more — we're curious what you'd like to see. Our bloodiest photos? Nebraska music's best hats? Comment below with your ideas for the next HN Photo Archive story.
