Lighthouses headed east from their homebase in Kearney, and stopped in Omaha on Saturday before continuing on to the rest of a nearly monthlong tour. See photos from The Hideout show here.

“Break stuff, break stuff, break stuff!” The crowd made its demands at the Lighthouses show at The Hideout, which Old Times, Cloudsplitter, and Drain opened.

They weren’t chanting for Lighthouses to actually break things, they just wanted one last song — “Break Things” — before the band left for the rest of their tour. Lighthouses obliged their wishes and played the song even though they were missing their second guitar player, Perry Schutz.

Paul Knapp of Lincoln pop punk band A Summer Better Than Yours is filling in for Shutz for Lighthouses’ summer tour.

The band will be on the road touring for their new album, Black Letter Day, until June 19. See photos of their Omaha concert here:
