Jack & Meg fill the Garden with their massive, magnificent sound!

Alicia Keys really wants to work with the Stripes! Take a number, honey.

Jack says journalists are “the laziest people on earth.” The gloves are off!

And, to wrap the review up, the official White wire offers the following:

The White Stripes have just added a show at Stubb’s Bar-B-Q in Austin, Texas on September 16th. Tickets go on sale tomorrow, July 28th at 10 am CST and can be purchased HERE.

Due to noise restrictions and concern from local residents, the venue has now changed for the gig in San Diego on September 18th. This show will now take place at Coors Amphitheatre where seating will now be general admission and all tickets purchased for The Embarcadero will be honored at this new venue. Apologies for any inconvenience this may have caused our fans.

Due to unforeseen scheduling conflicts, the October 11th performance at Kiva Auditorium in Albuquerque, NM will now take place on September 13th. All tickets for the 10/11 date will be honored on 9/13. If you are unable to attend the new date, refunds are available at point of purchase. We apologize to all of our fans for any inconvenience this may have caused.

If you haven’t already seen the new video for You Don’t Know What Love Is (You Just Do As You’re Told), be sure to sneak a peek on the video page of the site.
