I remember hearing that Jack White did an album with a Detroit Choir, but I can’t find any information about it at all. Is this a Mandela Effect thing, or does it actually exist? Help!

I know a few people were bummed they couldn’t get this at the physical Third Man Records stores, but it looks like it’s now available for purchase online for Vault members only. Apologies in advance if this has already been covered on the subreddit.

I am literally in tears right now and have been for the past week. Sadly it's not happy tears.

I was so lucky to see Jack white on his Supply Chain tour with my 70 year old dad. Him and I share the love we have for the most talented musician alive today. I was blessed to been able to do that with my dad.

However, learning that White is coming back for the No Name Tour; God answered my prayer, I really did pray for Jack White to come back to Utah before it's too late.

MY dad and I said we have to see him again atleast one more time while being together in this lifetime. My dad suffered a major heart attack on 2015 and is in Heart failure as we speak. I was so over the moon happy to hear about this new tour.

Sadly even though my dad and I wanted to go once more, more than anything;

The price of the tickets just cost more than we can afford. All thanks to higher cost of living and the medical bills, etc.

So that's why I just can't stop crying and thinking about this. I wanted to express myself on some sort of platform in order to help my sadness so I don't slip up and express it in front of my dad. It would hurt him even more and put more stress on his heart.

Writing/typing my feelings helps most of the time and Im hopeful it will help once again.

I probably sound ridiculous to others that might read this and want to tell me " it's just a concert". But for me this concert means one less happy memory I get to miss out on.

On the Supply Chain tour, my dad and I said nothing at all to one another during Whites set.

But when we looked over at each other, we both had a tear run down our face. No words are needed when you're in that moment of witnessing the god given talent of our favorite music artist.

To have another moment like that again, is what mattered to me & why this isn't "just a concert".

Anyway, now It's my time to see if this helps my sadness at all.🩵💙🩵

Style

I love analog because of what it makes you do. Digital recording gives you all this freedom, all these options to change the sounds that you are putting down, and those are for the most part not good choices to have for an artist," and "Mechanics are always going to provide inherent little flaws and tiny little specks and hisses that will add to the idea of something beautiful, something romantic. Perfection, making things perfectly in time and perfectly free of extraneous noise, is not something to aspire to! Why would anyone aspire to such a thing? —Jack White

White has long been a proponent of analog equipment and the associated working methods.[44][73] Beginning in the fifth grade, he and his childhood friend, Dominic Suchyta, would listen to records in White's attic on weekends and began to record cover songs on an old four-track reel-to-reel tape machine.[19] The White Stripes' first album was largely recorded in the attic of his parents' home.[19] As their fame grew beyond Detroit, the Stripes became known for their affected innocence and stripped-down playing style.[8] In particular, White became distinguished for his nasal vocal delivery and loose, explosive guitar delivery.[8] In an early New York Times concert review from 2001, Ann Powers said that, while White's playing was "ingenious", he "created more challenges by playing an acoustic guitar with paper taped over the hole and a less-than-high-quality solid body electric".

His home studio in Nashville contains two rooms ("I want everyone close, focused, feeling like we're in it together.")[2] with two pieces of equipment: a Neve mixing console,[2] and two Studer A800 2-inch 8-track tape recorders.

In his introduction in the documentary film, It Might Get Loud, White showcases his minimalist style by constructing a guitar built out of a plank of wood, three nails, a glass Coke bottle, a guitar string, and a pickup. He ends the demonstration by saying, "Who says you need to buy a guitar?"[29] In a 2012 episode of the show, Portlandia, White made a cameo in a sketch spoofing home studio enthusiasts who prefer antique recording equipment.[168]

White has enjoyed both critical and commercial success, and is widely credited as one of the key artists in the garage rock revival of the 2000s.[8] For his various collaborations and solo work, White has won regional, national and international awards, including twelve Grammy Awards (from a total of 33 nominations).[169] Nashville mayor Karl Dean awarded White the title of "Nashville Music City Ambassador" in 2011.[170] Rolling Stone ranked him number 70 on its 2010 list of "The 100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time".[171] David Fricke's 2011 list ranked him at number 17.[172] He has won twelve Grammy Awards, with 33 nominations,[169] and three solo albums have reached number one on the Billboard charts. Interviewers note the wide breadth of the music styles and eras he draws from for inspiration.[173] In May 2015, the Music City Walk of Fame announced that it would be honoring White (along with Loretta Lynn) with a medallion at its re-opening in Nashville.[174] On February 8, 2017, White was the honoree of the Producers and Engineers Wing of the Recording Academy during the annual Grammy Week celebration for his commitment "to working diligently to ensure that the quality and integrity of recorded music are captured and preserved".

Media reception Much has been made of White's "showmanship" and affectations.[166] Since the beginning, critics have debated the "riddle" of White's self-awareness against his claims of authenticity,[43][50] with people falling on both sides of the issue. Joe Hagan of The New York Times asked in 2001, "Is Mr. White, a 25-year-old former upholsterer from southwest Detroit, concocting this stuff with a wink? Or are the White Stripes simply naïve?"[50] Alexis Petridis, of The Guardian, said that White "makes for an enigmatic figure. Not because he's particularly difficult or guarded, but simply because what he tells you suggests a lifelong penchant for inscrutable behavior."[58] White himself confesses, "Sometimes I think I'm a simple guy, but I think the reality is I'm really complicated, as simple as I wish I was."[58] White has been called "eccentric".[107][176] He is known for creating a mythology around his endeavors;[14] examples include his claim that the Stripes began on Bastille Day,[39] that he and Meg are the two youngest of ten siblings,[39][42][177] and that Third Man Records used to be a candy factory.[20] These assertions came into question or were disproven, as when, in 2002, the Detroit Free Press produced copies of both a marriage license and divorce certificate for him and Meg, confirming their history as a married couple.[178] Neither addresses the truth officially, and Jack continues to refer to Meg as his sister in interviews,[20] including in the documentary Under Great White Northern Lights, filmed in 2007.[179] In a 2005 interview with Rolling Stone magazine, Jack alluded to this open secret, implying that it was intended to keep the focus on the music rather than the couple's relationship: "When you see a band that is two pieces, husband and wife, boyfriend and girlfriend, you think, 'Oh, I see ... ' When they're brother and sister, you go, 'Oh, that's interesting.' You care more about the music, not the relationship—whether they're trying to save their relationship by being in a band."[1] It became hypnotic. This was the minimum amount of staples I could put to hold this fabric down. The number three exemplifies the almost iconic, mysterious perfection that cannot be obtained ... To this day, I still think about it all the time.[58] -- White, on how seeing three staples on an upholstery piece triggered his affinity for the number three. He has an attachment to the number three,[44][180] stemming from seeing three staples in the back of a Vladimir Kagan couch he helped to upholster as an apprentice.[58] His business ventures frequently feature "three" in the title and he typically appends "III" to the end of his name.[35] During the White Stripes 2005 tour in the UK, White began referring to himself as "Three Quid"—"quid" being British slang for pound sterling.[181] He maintains an aesthetic that he says challenges whether people will believe he is "real".[1][35] He frequently color-codes his endeavors, such as the aforementioned Third Man Upholstery and the White Stripes, as well as Third Man Records, which is completely outfitted in yellow, black, red, and blue (including staff uniforms).[2][182] As a taxidermy enthusiast—that correlates to his work as an upholsterer—he decorates his studio in preserved animals, including a peacock, giraffe, and Himalayan goat.[35][

White is protective of his privacy and gives few details of his family life, even going as far as to disseminate false information.[35] He states that he does not consider his personal life relevant to his art, saying "It's the same thing as asking Michelangelo, 'What kind of shoes do you wear?' ... In the end, it doesn't really matter ... the only thing that's going to be left is our records and photos.

His collection of esoterica include Lead Belly's New York City arrest record, James Brown's Georgia driver's license from the 1980s, and a copy of the first Superman comic from June 1938.[55] For $300,000 in January 2015, an online bidder won an auction for Elvis Presley's first recording ever—an acetate of the two cover songs "My Happiness" and "That's When Your Heartaches Begin".[182] In its edition of March 6, 2015, Billboard magazine announced the buyer had been White.

Raised in Detroit, White is a fan of the Detroit Tigers baseball team.[183] On multiple occasions, he has decried video games as being useless and a waste of time, going so far as to state that he doesn't allow his kids to play them.[184] Despite this, his songs have appeared in the trailers for Call of Duty: Vanguard, Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare, and Battlefield 1, and on the soundtracks of Forza Horizon 4 and numerous Guitar Hero games.

From 1996 to 2000, White was married to bandmate Meg White. Jack took Meg's last name, legally changing his surname.

In 2003, White was in a relationship with actress Renée Zellweger, after meeting during the filming of Cold Mountain.[59] From 2005 to 2013, White was married to British model and singer Karen Elson. They met when she starred in the White Stripes' music video for "Blue Orchid". Meg White was the maid of honor at their wedding.[186] They co-parent their two children, Scarlett Teresa White (b. 2006) and Henry Lee White (b. 2007).

In 2009, White met American musician Olivia Jean at a concert of his band The Dead Weather.[187] They were married in 2022. They reside in Nashville, Tennessee

Candy cane boy, don’t you know your name boy?

Chat, am i cooked?

There was a ticketing delay until the 29 November on the Frontier website but just wondering if anyone has gotten their tickets? I have received only the email confirmation.

Cheers!

Not sure if every city does this, but when Jack White is visiting my home town (Grand Rapids) in April, college students get tickets for 20$ with proof of being a student.

Ticket booths open at 5pm for this, and im wondering how early I should show up to get in line to snag these. It says they are "very limited" and i haven't been to many concerts, so just wondering how competitive (if at all) opportunities like this have been at his other shows.

Thanks

Looking to switch a Tuesday ticket for a Monday ticket, is anyone able to help?

Just randomly checked and there are currently tickets available to the show at the Corner on Saturday the 7th of December!

Jack White, July 21,2014, Eagles Ballroom, Milwaukee. I attended and was not able to get one at the time. I have 2 other Von Munz posters for the other Jack White shows I attended and am looking to find this one. I know it’s a long shot…

If anyone knows where I can find one or has one for sale, DM me. Thanks!

Any rumblings on openers?

I have three tickets for Monday night's show Feb 17th and one for Tuesday, Feb 18th

I'm trying to get all four of us to see the show together.

I currently have 3 tickets for Monday, Feb 17th, and 1 ticket for Tuesday, Feb 18th. Ideally, someone with a Monday ticket would be willing to switch nights. If there is someone with 3 tickets on Tuesday that would prefer Monday that would work as well.

Thank you!

I ordered 6 45’s from the site. Payment went through just fine. Order arrived yesterday and was missing one item. I emailed them, but haven’t heard back. Has anyone else had this experience? Was wondering how good they are with these things. At the very least i should be getting a credit if the item is sold out. (It is now, but wasnt when i made the order). I’d rather have the item.

Since No Name has had some time to sink in, I've taken the opportunity to consider the worst of Jack White. My least favorite song from each of his projects (I didn't include anything like little room or passive manipulation, instrumentals, or most of the spoken word from Boarding House Reach). I'll post mine below in order of album release and then the order I rank them in. Feel free to post your own rankings.

My notes here are that about half of these are just victims of circumstance (they’re on stellar albums and I found them just a tiny bit weak).

The White Stripes (1999) - Astro

De Stijl (200) - Jumble, Jumble

White Blood Cells (2001) - Expecting

Elephant (2003) - It's True That We Love One Another

Get Behind Me Satan (2005) - Take, Take, Take

It's just a fanfiction Jack wrote about meeting Rita Hayworth. I'd say this is the first on this list I actively dislike.

Broken Boy Soldiers (2006) - Intimate Secretary

Icky Thump (2007) - St. Andrews (This Battle Is In The Air)

Another impeccable album where this track is just kind of a weird one. I actually like it, but I like everything else better, so there it is.

Consolers of the Lonely (2008) - The Switch and the Spur

Horehound (2009) - Rocking Horse

Sea of Cowards (2010) - I’m Mad

Blunderbuss (2012) - Trash Tongue Talker

Lazaretto (2014) - Want and Able

Dodge and Burn (2015) - Cop and Go

Boarding House Reach (2018) - Get in the Mind Shaft

Wasn’t sure where my cutoff would be with this album because it’s experimental, but this is what I came to.

Help Us Stranger (2019) - Only Child

Fear of the Dawn (2022) - Hi-De-Ho

Entering Heaven Alive (2022) - A Tree on Fire from Within

No Name (2024) - Underground

My order (best to worst):

The Switch and the Spur

Rocking Horse

Intimate Secretary

Cop and Go

Expecting

It's True That We Love One Another

Jumble, Jumble

Hi-De-Ho

Astro

St. Andrews (This Battle Is In The Air)

Only Child

I’m Mad

Underground

Want and Able

A Tree on Fire from Within

Get in the Mind Shaft

Take, Take, Take

Trash Tongue Talker

Upon reflection, I’d say after St. Andrews is when I start disliking the songs. 1-10 I enjoy. 11-19 I may be annoyed at hearing live (yes, I know Underground is being played nearly every show on this tour). Let me know what you all think!

Meg had leather pants on.
