Do some simple searches on the band you're telling other people they don't know enough about. It's fairly well-known amongst fans of The White Stripes and Jack White as a solo artist, that they admitted long ago that they were previously married.

Relax man, all the OP was trying to convey was that he really likes Jack White. In regard to the music, it hardly matters if the man was having intercourse with his sister or not.

I love the white stripes!

What is the name of the documentary you watched? is it available on netflix?

Shoot! It was not netflix....ATTuverse at my Dad's I think?

Pandora regularly plays Jack's quiter stuff on the Beatles channel. Not definitive, but that speaks volumes to me.

That said, I had about given up on blaring guitars ever sounding original, and then Jack (think ickythump) came along and kicked that idea's teeth down it's throat. Talk about eclectic!

I've never really listened to a whole lot of his solo stuff but he definitely has a cool unique sound. I'll dig around and see if I can't find the documentary somewhere since I'm curious now.

It is AWESOME.

He and Meg, a small crew for camera and gear, just travelled all over to real shows, and also to tons of little impromptu performances.

They just walked into a nursing home and set up and jammed.

They rented a boat and played while cruising around to different docks and such blaring through amps.

How cool would that be?

Just sitting someplace and the white Stripes just show up and start playing?

So, I really wish that last nights show was at The HOB or even The Orpheum. It was the first time I saw a concert at BU's Agganis Arena. The acoustics were terrible. The place was made for hockey, not shows. Still a great time.
