Tunstall Meets Her Hero

Scot songstress KT Tunstall met everyone’s favorite rock god backstage at a recent festival in Japan. Here’s what she had to say:
He’s like Led Zeppelin in one man. It was a magical moment… the Raconteurs’ dressing room was opposite ours, so I got a bit of paper and wrote, “Did I ever tell you […]

“Three Fathers” - Jack Joins Dylan Onstage

Jack once said, “I’ve got three fathers - my biological dad, God and Bob Dylan.”
If that’s so, there was a smashing family reunion last week in Nashville, where White joined the folk legend onstage September 19 at the Ryman Auditorium for a little “Meet Me in the Morning.” The next night saw duets on “One […]

I Hate to Advocate Drugs…

The Raconteurs - Jack White’s “other band” - drug-fueled?
That’s the joke at the supergroup’s MySpace page, where they claim that their Nashville recording sessions for a new album have been fueled by “acidophilus powder and flax seed smoke.”

Who Ordered The Keg?

 
From the folder marked “Whuzzat?” comes an announcement about the UK single for “You Don’t Know What Love Is (You Just Do What You’re Told).”
The B-side of that particular single will be…wait for it…a frat rock version.

A Child Is Born

 
Cigars and champagne all ’round, Yorbites! There’s a new White in town!
Reports have come in that Mrs. Jack White herself, Karen Elson, gave birth to a healthy baby boy on Tuesday by the name of Henry Lee. This makes two children now for the couple, the other fifteen-month-old Scarlett Teresa.
