Shit.
No more White Stripes.
This is a shame for a few reasons. 1, they were a great band. 2, they crossed over in a big way but continued to make heavy rockin blues music - something the charts hadnt seen in years. 3, does this mean we wont get to see Meg Whites big 'ol titties bouncing around anymore? 4, Jack White is gonna make another Dead Weather album aint he, which although aint bad - its just not as good as the 'stripes. 5, no more tits.
What it hopefully means though, and maybe im being too optimistic here, but by The White Stripes fuckin off it leaves a hole to be filled....I will let you come up with your own "Meg White/filled hole" joke yourself.
maybe, just maybe, bands such as Dead Meadow, Black Mountain and The Black Keys will start getting a bit more attention from the main stream. Everyone needs a blues fix occasionaly and these bands can now step up.
They are already established, and with the Black keys already getting some attention from the general public, things are looking up.
It could be a good thing for guitar based blues and hopefully what The White Stripes have done is opened the door and left it ajar for others to come through.
Either that or we get another dose of bath fart in the form of this shit...
Its up to you...........woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo, scary
I am really sad about the White Stripes, and as a straight female I didn't even consider the tit impact on the world. Wow. The White Stripes should really have thought that through. In all seriousness the did some fabulous tunes and its a sad day.
