What a joke. They should have yelled back 'play something in time and we will dance and jump around'. God help us all  |

|  | Remember 12/21/2012! ...it's my birthday! | | Join Date: Jun 2006 Location: Cheviot, OH | | | I actually like the music. It's different - I'm tired of "groove". There hasn't been a good new "groove" in over a decade. As for Jack, rock needs outrageous personalities. A little more modesty would go a long way, but for a bunch of B-list celebrities acting like they're too cool for school and flashing nonchalant looks of boredom and disdain...I could see Jack blowing up like that.

It's the Dead Weather, a really groovy dark, simplified sound. It has a bassist, Jack Lawrence (phenomenal) as well as a stellar female vocalist (Allison Mosshart) from the Kills. The band slays live. There is plenty of rocking out to be done to their music.

I guess he gets used to playing big shows with people dying to get an inch closer to him and the band at all costs...it's different when its a crowd of people who aren't necessarily die-hard fans. You learn that pretty quick when you tour with others bands, maybe he's forgotten what those days were like =/

Guess ol' Jack frogot what it's like to play a gig (as opposed to a concert).
Yeah, Jack, sometimes you're just background music for people. Get over yourself.

If you like the White Stripes, check out Black Box Revelation, a Belgian band that brings dirty blues with only a guitar and drums ... and I have no affiliation with them, except being Belgian and digging them

Which is kinda funny, makes you want to play those 'background music' gigs more often. Pay is good, you play better. Unless you're an attention whore like Jack seems to be, haha

And not just for the lack of a bassist, although I wouldn't expect that particular aspect to go down well on this website, LOL. |
