Loretta Lynn-Fist City
Oh yeah. Love it. Think there's any credence to the stories that she and Jack White uh... "collaborated"? Can't blame him. Then or now.
Jack White totally getting into it. Let's build a home
As far as Meg's drumming, I'm in agreement that it's all been said.
Here's a quote from Bamdrew in another White Stripes sift that I feel should be read by anyone who comes into a WS sift and complains about Meg's drumming:
"i'm tired of people raggin on her sucking at drumming. she had no musical training before she started banging the beat out for jack; its not like she's pretending to be a virtuoso, she's backing up the lead with simple, primal, 1-2 beats.
i think it would be distracting if there were some fucking danny carrey going nuts on all their bluesy, roots-rock songs. they've been around for a while now, they have a grammy award, its time to understand she's playing the drums exactly how jack wants them played." -Bamdrew
Couldn't have said it better myself.
@Hex, That's awesome. I would've loved to have seen that. Jack White once said that his favorite shows are when things go wrong and he's forced to improv. He feels that some of this generation of concert-goers are somewhat 'spoiled' in the sense that they come to a show, giving nothing to the energy/atmosphere and expect to be entertained. He says that's why they never have a specific set-list, plays with instruments that he's played with for years, and never has anything specific in mind as to how the show will go. Any disasterous event (IE- a broken string) would be the saving grace, and leave the audience with something that they'd remember.

Obsidianfire: Yeah, Meg White has an attractive body. Unfortunately she has no talent. I've heard 8th graders playing in their garage who are better than she is. Seriously.
Jack White is pretty impressive, though. I would love to see him do some collaborations with people who can actually play their instruments.
