Holy shit I've been without internet for the last 4 days and just watched this. I definitely prefer the guy band's energy better than the girl band. The sound for this was perfect, hope they can match it close at the gorge. Jacks voice often gets kinda of lost behind the guitar, but it was right on point for this one. I really hope we see something like this at Sasquatch.

I'm always a sucker for a Hank cover as well.
EDIT: Good thing I watched it when I did, looks like they've taken the video with entire show down.

Does anyone know where to find the full version of this performance, I can only watch the selected ones on youtube?

Regarding the girl band/guy band, I read that they aren't allowed to rehearse together or watch each other play the songs, so that they have a totally different vibe, and that they don't know who will play on any given night until that morning. And they have to wear all blue. This is all from the NYT piece on Jack White.

Jack White sounds like a pretty strict band leader. And what's with the all blue? Didn't he have some fetish about red black and white? Or is that just reserved for the Whitestripes?

They don't have to wear all blue, because they weren't wearing all blue in the 'unstaged' performance. You guys should watch the pre-show videos for the 'unstaged' thing, they shed quite a lot of light on the whole thing, and on Mr.White.

Also he just hit number 1 on billbord, so he must be doing something right.

I guess be prepared for this?
JACK WHITE ATTEMPTS NEW WORLD RECORD
Jack White has again decided to take on the tremendous challenge of making it into the Guinness Book of World Records.
During the rest of the performances on his current tour supporting his new album "Blunderbuss" (which incidentally is currently in the running for the world record of "the fastest named album in history" *pending), Jack White will every night on stage attempt to break the world record for most metaphors in a single concert.
The attempt may prove very exhausting and at times even dangerous, but the results could prove to be glorious and possibly even vainglorious. White and Third Man Records are certain that the extremely scientific and intricate analysis of the metaphors that occur will be examined in accordance with Guinness' usually very thorough methods probably, or at the very least if somebody answers the phone at the pub.
Third Man Records encourages all attendees of said concerts to please not interfere or interject with any metaphors that they witness occur during the show as to not disqualify or worse yet, trivialize the metaphor in question. In addition all concert attendees are encouraged to entice as many metaphors to occur during the show that they possibly can as long as they don't endanger themselves or Mr. White.

Looks like he's started playing "Black Math" on the new leg of his tour. Nice, I've always liked that one.

I have no idea how I could interfere with a metaphor.

I'm not sure how I could entice a metaphor, let alone one that might endanger me or Mr. White.

Actually, that almost feels like a challenge for us to figure out how to interfere or entice metaphors.

So basically everything Jack White says will be cryptic as hell from now on.

Just saw videos of Jack absolutely slaying it at Hangout festival! He played a variety of his favorite songs from all of his projects and gave new sound to some of his most famous hits like seven nation army! Really hoping he graces the sasquatch stage with that much energy. I'm still undecided if i like the all blue stage and ligthing, if i get really fucked up and peeled back then it looks really chill and almost adds a mystical quality but other times it just makes them looked drowned out and feels depressing
