John McCain was one of the last things I expected to see when I clicked on this video
-
You know it's real rock n roll when it sounds like the best thing you ever heard but it all could fall apart at any moment. Not many musicians can walk that line but this is proof it can be done.
-
SNL posting back to back Jack White vintage performances for seemingly no reason had me doing a real quick Google search to confirm he wasn't dead. He is not by the way.
-
This is absolutely the most perfect version of this song you will ever find live.
-
Meg White to this day gets the best sound out of Jack, love her.
-
Jack White been saving rock & roll since it was still in 4:3 aspect ratio
-
Jack White isn’t so much playing music as being possessed by it and carried away- it courses around and through him. What a joy to watch this!
-
I recall watching this when it aired, I've been hooked since. His vocal style is so bizarre that it fits the chaotic noise perfectly.
-
Ever been drinking , perfect buzz , then you do that one shot and things get fuzzy ? That’s Jacks guitar tone ..
-
0:48 that face you make when you know you’ve got a banger and you’re about to melt the entire audience’s face off.
-
Meg proved introverts could perform on the stage. She was terrified but still was able to sound great. I would love to see her conquer her fears and make a comeback with Jack.
-
I think all guitarists understand just how fuckin' hard it is to play totally perfect 100% of the time as Jack is here. Like, Jack is the sole source of melodic content here in this song. He has to be totally on all of the time just to even make the song work. Dude plays bass parts on guitar while he also plays lead guitar at like the same time lol. He just had to be perfect at his job, and he definitely delivered.
-
If next year White Stripes reunite and make a live tour I'll forgive 2020
-
Why does that “simple/beating the shit out of the drums” thing work so perfectly?
-
1:25 Jack goes full Adam Sandler
-
For those that are curious, this is from the October 19th, 2002 episode of SNL hosted by the late John McCain. (Seems like this basic information should be included in the description.) Also, this episode is the only time the White Stripes performed on SNL as a duo.
-
1:12 every guitarist knows that when your tone is that nasty, those movements are completely involuntary. Jack was actually showing a lot of restraint with his flailing.
-
The energy from that guitar is insane
-
I don't know how these two manage to sound like a huge band, but they nail it.
-
I just watched this 9 times in a row.
