Strider Posted May 23, 2012 Posted May 23, 2012 (edited) Man, if I was in Blighty I'd take you up on your offer in a New York minute! But I'm not...sorry I can't help you out Henry. But I urge anyone who is in the UK to take henrybonzo up on his offer. The new Jack White album is a good one and he's got a cracker of a band with him...all girls, including a violin player, and can play as well as being easy on the eyes. He plays White Stripes chestnuts as well as Raconteurs and Dead Weather songs amongst his new songs. When I saw him at the Mayan April 30, he opened with "Dead Leaves and the Dirty Ground" and the crowd went apeshit when he played "Hotel Yorba". If you're thinking of going, don't hesitate...just GO!!! Edited May 23, 2012 by Strider Quote

Virginia Posted August 31, 2012 Posted August 31, 2012 Just got tickets today to the show coming up on Sept 27 in VA; small venue, so very happy to have gotten them! Quote
jb126 Posted September 1, 2012 Posted September 1, 2012 Just got tickets today to the show coming up on Sept 27 in VA; small venue, so very happy to have gotten them! Nice! I will be seeing him the following night. Really looking forward to it. Quote
Walter Posted September 1, 2012 Posted September 1, 2012 Just got tickets today to the show coming up on Sept 27 in VA; small venue, so very happy to have gotten them! Jealous! Wish he would make it down here sometime soon! Please give us a review after the show, Virginia! Quote
Strider Posted September 1, 2012 Posted September 1, 2012 Just got tickets today to the show coming up on Sept 27 in VA; small venue, so very happy to have gotten them! You'll be even happier after seeing the show! In my opinion, after the White Stripes this is Jack White's best incarnation. Better than Dead Weather, better than the Raconteurs. If it's anything like the show I saw earlier this year, you'll have an amazing time. Great band and Jack plays his ass off! Quote
Virginia Posted September 2, 2012 Posted September 2, 2012 I'm going with a couple of friends and we are all super stoked; I'll definitely post a review Quote
chef free Posted September 2, 2012 Posted September 2, 2012 Jack White is an awesome guitar player! (Dan Auerbach too!) Quote
docron Posted September 2, 2012 Posted September 2, 2012 This guy is a mastermind. That being said, can people really accuse Jimmy Page of playing too sloppy live? lol. Quote
The 4 Runes Posted September 9, 2012 Posted September 9, 2012 (edited) Watched Jack White and his two bands Live yesterday afternoon on Itunes Festival. Very good performance. Gained a great appreciation of his talents when I was at the Premiere screening of Under the Northern Lights in Toronto Film Festival in 2009. He was quite funny also at the end during the question andanswer when he poked fun at Kanye. Now if only I can get tickets to his show in T.O. at the Sony Centre Edited September 9, 2012 by The 4 Runes Quote
Virginia Posted November 11, 2012 Posted November 11, 2012 (edited) Just came across this; thought you all might appreciate it; it gets better and better as it goes along: Edited November 11, 2012 by Virginia Quote

Just the guys playing for this one but it was shit hot. No Peacocks ledded1? Too bad...they're pretty terrific. But hell, Jack White in any format is worth seeing. The guy rips the shit out of his guitar. Edited November 11, 2012 by Strider Quote
Virginia Posted December 6, 2012 Posted December 6, 2012 From FB: "Jack has been nominated for 3 Grammys, including “Album of the Year.” In addition to “Album of the Year,” Blunderbuss is also nominated for “Best Rock Album” and “Freedom at 21″ is nominated for “Best Rock Song.” Quote

Strider Posted November 15, 2013 Posted November 15, 2013 Rock Icons Pay Tribute to Jack White http://www.tonedeaf.com.au/news/international-news/362626/rock-icons-pay-tribute-to-jack-white-on-new-album.htm Check out Wanda Jackson & Shooter Jennings doing "In the Cold, Cold Night" Love the cover art and I'll definitely be getting this next Tuesday. It was annoying that the writer kept writing The Saboteurs when it should have been The Raconteurs. Not just once, but twice...where was his proofreader? Doesn't anybody fact-check anymore before publishing? For Jack White fans in the NYC area, Jack White will be appearing next Tuesday, Nov. 19 at the New York Public Library as part of the Live from the NYPL event on the occasion of the release of "The Rise and Fall of Paramount Records". Greil Marcus will also be part of the program. Tickets go on-sale today. http://jackwhiteiii.com/news/ Quote
Virginia Posted November 16, 2013 Posted November 16, 2013 (edited) I think that's what the Raconteurs are known by in Australia (apparently there was already a Raconteurs there); and that website is Australian. Edited November 16, 2013 by Virginia Quote

The masters will then be rushed over to United Record Pressing, who will immediately begin pressing 45s. The sleeves will be printed from pictures taken at the show. The finished records will be whisked back to Third Man to sell to awaiting fans. All in the same day. All in a matter of mere hours. As long as there are fans in line waiting to buy the single, United will continue to press and deliver them to Third Man to sell. Even if it takes all day." Quote
