Can we talk about last night’s show (Anaheim)?!
I’ve been a White Stripes/Jack White fan since 2001. Lucky to have seen the White Stripes several times, Raconteurs, Dead Weather and Jack solo many times. That was by far the best solo show I’ve seen. I’ve been dying to be in a crowd like this. At the White Stripes gigs, there were always people who were too cool, sitting down, chatting the whole time. This crowd was so into, chanting lyrics etc. and Jack looked like he was have a genuinely good time. As he said “I’m giving my heart to you.” I’ve never heard so many White Stripes songs in one gig. Let’s build a home. Hotel Yorba. Hardest button to button. Ball and biscuit. Dead leaves on the dirty ground. Death letter. And of course Seven Nation Army. I couldn’t get tickets to the smaller shows. So to be there last night was truly special. Thanks Jack and thanks to all of you who were there for such an enjoyable night.
EDIT: After some video evidence, I am sad to say he didn’t really play death letter. He played the slide guitar bit but with different lyrics. I’m still stoked about even hearing that but sorry to get everyone excited and get your hopes up that he could play it at future dates.
STILL AN AMAZING SHOW!
