The Raconteurs
“(embargoed from sharing the title)” one-sided single
scums stats: WOULDN’T YOU LIKE TO KNOW?
Hard to believe I’m even doing one this week, but the collectibility has me all keyed up. Multiple covers? Multiple paper colors? Only given out to Ultra Ticket purchasers? SIGN ME UP.
Everybody is gonna want one, so let me just pre-emptively tell you…I don’t have any to spare!
You wanna place bets on the high price these reach on Discogs? Will anyone be able to collect ALL four?
Good luck to those trying, as you will need it.
You know, this song originally wasn’t going to be on the album. But Swank and I had to explain to the band how DAMN GOOD it was. It makes multiple statements that need to be made. The performance is tight…who even knew Brendan could DO that?
People who won't play the game the hard way, let’s do easy. Let’s give away a test pressing for commenters. You’ve got a week to get it in there. Tell me your favorite Third Man moment of the past ten years. I may use discretion or I may just pick a comment at random, so everyone has a chance.
It’s the morning after my third show in 2 weeks and I just checked – as predicted in my earlier post, balls torn. ?
Jack at Metro Lolla
Hands down Up Up and Away the launch of Icarus playing A Glorious Dawn was my favorite moment and hands down a close second was the discussion of The Rise and Fall of Paramount Records at Yale University Church .TMR bridging the past, present and future…
I don’t know who won, or will win, but I really enjoyed reading all these memories, which brought back many of my own. Thanks, everyone!
A perfect day for banana fish.
Seeing Jack White absolutely shred the Shreveport Municipal Auditorium last September! Was one of the best shows I’ve seen in a very long list of killer concerts!!
There was the time when I was seeing Death from Above and I saw Mick Jagger and Jack White also standing in the crowd as well. It is one of those times you are like, I am in the same room as these guys!? Enjoying a rock show? Similar experience was when QOTSA came to Nashville to play and I saw Jason Isbell and Ben Blackwell in the crowd. Queens somehow didn’t sell out that arena but it was good to know I was in good company of people that know music. I believe I also saw either Swank or Blackwell at Run the Jewels and usually my favorite little Mexican spot in town El Jalisciense. They have the best street tacos, I always tell people to get the lengua (tongue) tacos. It is cool to know though they are just cool dudes you’d see at a show here in Nashville.
Cass Corridor grand opening. Brendan Benson taking the stage without anyone noticing except for me and his family. Turning around for a second and seeing Jack sing from the shadows in the balcony every word for one of his favorite musicians and then watching him disappear deeper into the shadows when the girl next to me try to snap a photo of him because it wasn’t about him
MC50 show in Detroit at TMR. Standing next to Kirk Gibson in crowd.
When they started the vault :)
