I was so in love with her. I think her death was about the saddest thing I can remember from those days.

Not-so-by-the-way, that's John Denver she's speaking with when she says, "I'd sure like to have your drum."

Yea, she could drum . . . but that voice . . . whew.

Not quite as good as the chick drummer from the White Stripes, but close. I hear she could sing a little too.

Ya but the white stripes chick can sing a little better too, if I remember right.

Im with ya silvercord, that voice does me in. Same with Norah Jones.

Are you kidding me? The White stripes chick is the absolute worst drummer I have EVER heard in my life. She sucks so bad!

That "chick drummer" you are referring to is Meg White.

yeah, right - worst drummer ever... and half of the best selling rock revival of the last decade. go figure.

I think Bill is yanking your chain there, Meg White is not a good drummer, but for the purposes of the White Stripes it doesn't matter.

allegedly Meg only started playing the drums a couple of years before the White Stripes became famous.

The saddest part about this video is this is NOT a widescreen video incorrectly converted to standard aspect ratio - she really was that skeletal.

Meg White only started playing a couple years before she became a part of "rock revival"? NO WAY! I don't believe it! Her chops are awesome! Her beats are phat! Her vocal range is tremendous! Her... Her... see, words fail me! And don't get me started on her brother/bandmate/husband/guitarist! He's one of the all time greats! HE'S A MODERN DAY SRV, WITH BETTER SOLO SKILLZ WOWOW!!??!!
