White Stripes and Crosby, Stills and Nash

[Al the CAT]

I guess a lower key performance might help with meg's anxiety or has she fully recovered now?

i said at xmas that stripes will be on and got gunned down for it. Can't wait for their full return. They were great on Conan on friday.

[WS_Jack_III]

That's not a common saying that's going round, even from the die-hard White Stripes fans.

After seeing the youtube of it, I'm less confident of seeing them in June. It had the feel of a 'doing a favour for a good friend' set rather than a 'testing the water before relaunching themselves' set.

they could just turn up at the park one night unannounced.... which would be amazing if you just happened to be there, but a pisser if you missed it...

Jack turned up and played for a couple of minutes with the Last Shadow Puppets last year. I remember hearing a vague announcement from our tent, and thinking "nah, it can't be", then I found out it was!!

[The Philosopher King]

Oh dear Lord - if it comes off...CSN and Y, The White Stripes, Springsteen, Blur, The Decemberists, The Blockheads, if all these rumours come to pass, I'll cum in mi' pants!

I had about 9 mates saying they were gonna buy a ticket, and I was the only one who pulled mi' finger out of mi' arse. I am now the smuggest bastard on the block in Bolton...

Agreed that the Conan performance was definitely not their best, however, it doesn't mean that I'm any less excited about the prospect of this rumor coming true. (Though admittedly, I'd be more excited if it was The Raconteurs...I prefer them live to Jack'n'Meg).

[FestMonster]

please let the white stripes rumour come true i missed them at leeds festival years ago due to jack punching someone and rebreaking his hand/wrist then i missed them at sheffield due to meg white and her condition, keeping my fingers and toes crossed till june on this one

mate i seen like the first 3 songs and walked away from the shadow puppets as i thought they were so piss poor

then i seen a youtube clip 3 weeks ago showing jack white... i was almost in tears.....

What's all this about megs anxiety? Never read anything about it before this thread. They've been going for years, why all of a sudden does she get stage fright?

[stoneroses19]

I could be wrong but i've always took anxiety in rock stars to mean drug problems

I think in her case it's more to do with the fact that everyone has realised that she can't drum in time, which isn't a lot of good for a drummer.
