Photo Gallery: Jarvis Cocker @ Wiltern

Jarvis Cocker graced Los Angeles with his presence this past Monday night at the Wiltern, entertaining fans with songs off his latest solo effort, Further Complications. The former Pulp front-man (and all-around cheeky bastard) took time between songs to shake hands and accept gifts from the audience, and even pointed out a few facts about the historic venue as well as the La Brea Tar Pits. 

Although no Pulp songs were played that evening, the crowd was still supportive and fervent as ever for the charismatic Cocker, whose quirky dance moves even prompted one fan to jump up on stage to join him.

Photos from the evening can be viewed in the gallery below:
