The White Stripes to play a haunted steel mill in Birmingham, Alabama

[rustoffa]

So, it's gonna be @ the end of July...a Monday. Seems kinda weird. My best guess would be some filmation going on, or Jack White tryin' to raise some hell!
:eek:

July 30, 2007 at 8PM

The White Stripes make a rare concert appearance "under the roof" at Sloss Furnaces in support of their new album, "Icky Thump" which will in stores June 19th.

This is a chance to see one of the most elusive acts in rock in the intimate setting of Sloss Furnaces a few days after they play huge rooms like Madison Square Garden.

Don't wait long, this one may go in a hurry.

The band put me to sleep, but I loved the documentary.

Thanks for sharing!

[Diamondjimi]

No offence Russ. But would'nt walk across the street to piss on these two.
Seriously. First The Smashing pumpkins call it a day (yayyyyy!!!) Then this "act"shows up to critical acclaim!

I just don't see the appeal of this"band"..........

Oh well ...

[katie]

Jack White = Legend!
Meg = Get ya tits out!

[Hardrock69]

They just played a surprise show at a club in Gnashville called the Cannery Ballroom last weekend.

[Antman]

Not interested.

[Loons The Great]

One of the greatest band around...'nuff said.

Jeff Beck recently jammed with the mighty White Stripes...they did a bunch of ol' Yardbirds covers...

[Loons The Great]

The White Stripes...are steeped in the blues...and they care about their fans......The White Stripes make you want to howl at the moon...Van Halen kicks you like a junkyard dog...

Not bad. Guess I underestimated his blues influences. But jeezus hire a bass player.

[DrMaddVibe]

That's why I liked the Raconteurs.

Lucky!

[The_KiD]

I am surprised more people have not caught on to what this band is really all about. Jack White is EXTREMELY talented. He is a good guitarist that always dishes out catchy riffs and hooks..

I credit them for making music that DOES NOT sound like everything else being put out today. I mean Meg is no Drummer but hey, I have enjoyed each of their albums and will buy the new one when it comes out..

Variety is the spice of life..

Cheers,

KiD

The White Stripes
June 17th-July 31st
Tickets: $30-$50

Singer-guitarist Jack White and drummer Meg White are heading way off the beaten track on the White Stripes' first tour in two years. They will play shows in the far north of Canada as well as at Bonnaroo, Madison Square Garden and a blues festival -- a first for the Stripes -- in Ottawa. "A lot of people don't know that we have anything to do with the blues," says Jack. "But every time we sing or play a note, that's the root of it -- the blues."

After the Raconteurs, how does it feel going back to the power of two?

The Raconteurs are more of a conventional band. I play a guitar solo, and the other guys keep going behind it. In the White Stripes, I play rhythm and lead at the same time. I constantly keep the show going. And there is an intensity between Meg and I that I can't comprehend at times. I know it pushes me to do better, to do more than I would. I've got that vibe in my brain: "I got to keep it going."

How will you arrange songs from Icky Thump for the stage? In "I'm Slowly Turning Into You," there's organ and glam guitar. Which will you play live?

Some nights I'll play it on organ, some nights on guitar. Or some nights I'll play one with one hand and one with the other [laughs]. The good thing about the White Stripes is we get to decide when and where to break our own rules.

The tour includes unusual stops like Montana and Alaska -- and the Yukon Territory, which is way uptown.

We're playing the last sixteen states we haven't been to yet, and we're playing every province and territory in Canada. We've never done a tour of Canada, even after all these years.

And the White Stripes are headlining at the Garden for the first time.

I don't even know what the Garden looks like -- I'm not from New York [laughs]. I never imagined the White Stripes, a two-piece band, could play that place. It's unbelievable.

Cool jam. Guess I'll have to check out more of those two, and I don't just mean those beautiful fun bags behind the drum kit.:D

Set List:

Dead Leaves and the Dirty Ground
I Think I Smell a Rat (a little over half-way through), falls into
Icky Thump...he pushed the organ all over the place, climbed up the stairs and encouraged the crowd to clap along
When I Hear My Name
Hotel Yorba
The Denial Twist...some alternate lyrics and Meg holding back on drums
Death Letter intro...slides into a 'lil possible Catch Hell intro...falls back into...
Death Letter...alternate lyrics for chorus "Got 10,000 women on my front porch, didn't know wether to listen to 'em or to keep on headin' north" really insane version of this song
Do...drug out the last verse with "scratchin', itchin'.....Brother John & Sister Moon won't you tell me what I'm supposed to Do.."
I'm Slowly Turning Into You...disco ball during the chorus, such an incredible effect. walked up the stairs to the right of the stage and down the ones to the far left and had the crowd sing along
In the Cold, Cold Night...Jack introduces Meg to Alabama and she sings beautifuly and steps to the organ to play along like she has been recently
I Wanna be the Boy to Warm Your Mothers Heart...plays both the organ and slide guitar
Seven Nation Army...starts out strong and is standing on the front amps, but then says "I don't know if we shoudl play this song in America anymore...guess it doesn't translate well...lost something in the translation" and stops! Amazing!!!!
Astro...just incredible...actually gets through most of the song 'till after the "Edison is AC/DC" line, then proceeds to stomp up the center stairs and once at the top begins playing
Jack the Ripper!!!!!! The whole song...total powerhouse.

Encore :

Little Cream Soda (full version, indeed)
A Martyr For my Love For You...extra long finish on this one...really drug it out
One More Cup of Coffee...played on airline
300 mph Outpour Blues...some alternate lyrics, "All kinds of emotions that a phone call ain't gonna fix"...really crazy ending
We're Going to be Friends...crowd sings last verse
IJDKWTDWM...crowd singing chorus
Ball and Biscuit...maybe a little "Cool Drink of Water" into the mic sitting on the back amps? couldn't really hear...calls out Meg at the end, "Let's have a ball Meg" and then changes the lyrics after that, but I couldnt' decypher...lots of organ to solo to organ to solo on this one
Boll Weevil...and you know the rest of this story.
