    Kick ass. Jack white has enough attitude and sincerety that if you spread it around to all the other bands on the planet it would be 1992 again!!!

    In 92' bands had singers who could sing and also had bass players. Let's just pretend that he is a guitar genius, the guy still can't sing to save his life. Next I'm going to be hearing how Meg White is the next Keith Moon. Music is so bad right now that anything sounds good thats different and new. Just look at the Strokes........what a god awful band. I just don't buy in to any of this. If Jack White was so into the music and what not, why does he feel the need to have a costume. He's all about image. Their who band is based of his wife/sister and red and whit clothes they wear.

    I just listened to "ball and biscut".....half of it is a rip off of the "lemon song" and the fucking guitar tone fucking blows ass. If had a couple Fender Twins cranked with a fuzz pedal I could play that shit left handed. The guy can't even solo in 12 bar blues, but I will say he did make a lot of noise and managed to get a note in here and there. Oh yea and my favorite were the hammer on's.........watch eddie van halen, next will be the finger taps!

    wow thats harsh. If he played all notes it would sound like shit beause of the fact its just him and the drums...hes filling space..yes, and making noise is his gimmick....and yes soem of the riffs are ripoofs..its fucking blues, evfery single song is a rip off of something else

    Although I am a big supporter i see your point about the "costume" He is a weird and funny guy. have you listened to him interviewed. He is ecentric and that is kinda cool. Definately cares about his image but not in a cheesy "scott stapp with fans blowing hair on stage" kinda way.
    If I thought blue and green were so cool, I thought that nothing could compare to blue and green clothes, maybe I would only wear blue and green clothes and cause I thought it looked awesome not cause I think other people will like it.

    See what I mean. It really does seem like a weird eccentric thing not really an image thing.

    i listened to it...and there is STILL nothing genius...OR inspiring about his playing. one thing i will give them credit for is the 28 song set. nice to see another band besides pearl jam doing more than like 15 songs at a show.
    i remember you...i was gonna vote for you one time...but voting isn't cool so i stayed home and got trashed on listerine.
