White Stripes Are One-Note?
Normally, we'd never accuse The White Stripes of being stale -- but if one note is the only note they're gonna play, then the label might stick. As part of their Canadian tour to promote "Icky Thump," Jack and Meg White are holding to a promise to play in every Canadian province and territory -- mostly through secret "One Note" shows, advertised mere hours ahead of time via their website.
Here, a crowd of excited Newfoundland fans witness Jack and Meg keep their word. No telling how long they had to wait for this one beat of music -- but given that the applause lasts longer than the performance, it seems that the crowd thinks it was worth it.
