Title: White Stripes?
Post by: Jaguär on July 11, 2003, 01:49:00 pm: I hope I'm not just scaring everyone up and starting a false rumor here (well, actually, I hope I am) but I've heard that The White Stripes have just cancelled two UK festivals for 2 different reasons. One was T In The Park and maybe the other was this weekend's Move Festival.

One of the stories is that Jack and Meg have been fighting very badly and aren't talking. The other is of a much bigger concern and that is that, supposedly, Jack has broken his hand.

Okay, anybody know any truth here?...Not speculation. Obviously, this may have an impact on the US tour, especially if the hand thing is true. Let's hope it's all British rag false gossip.

Oh, yeah. I just saw it. The thread title didn't tip me off and didn't know that it had been posted yet.

I'm still doing a lot of catching up.

Man on man can't you pay more attention! What a waste of my time to be looking at two threads. Holy shit this place is a mess!!

Okay, just kidding. I never saw the link the first time either. I actually prefer it when someone starts a new thread with a more descriptive title as to how the conversation has progressed.....

FROM THE TENNESSEAN:

White Stripes show on hold after car wreck

From Tennessean music writer Peter Cooper:

Yikes. White Stripes' guitar man Jack White suffered a fracture in his left hand in an automobile accident Wednesday. He was driving in Detroit with girlfriend, Renee Zellweger, when another car reportedly ran into him.

Renee was not hurt, and Jack escaped major injury. The problem is that when you are a guitar player in a band that's composed solely of guitar and drums, a break in your hand puts you out of commission.

Again, yikes. And dang.

Thus, the White Stripes' sold-out July 29 engagement at the Ryman Auditorium is now postponed. Ryman General Manager Pam Matthews says September, October or November are likely months for the show. All tickets for the July 29 date will be honored at the rescheduled date.
Seeing as July 29 comes after July 26....

i never knew that..............waaaaaaaa my celebrity crap knowledge radar is broken............beeeeeeeeep, beeeeeeeep
Title: Re: White Stripes?
Post by: lily1 on July 15, 2003, 12:36:00 am: what the hell is renee with jack? man, she could do better. she must be in some sort of phase. first she won't do a follow up to bridget jones and now this.
Title: Re: White Stripes?
Post by: ggw on July 15, 2003, 12:48:00 am: The question is - What the hell is Jack doing with Renee? He could do a hell of a lot better. I think the truth of the matter is that she was driving and when she smiled, those fat cheeks of hers scrunched up and forced her eyes closed, hence causing the accident.

And poorlulu, is your cable broken or something? That gossip is soooooo old. Here's an update -- Winona is now dating Jack Osbourne, Cameron dumped Justin and is now with Vince Vaughn, and Ryan Adams has dumped Leona Naess for Parker Posey.
Title: Re: White Stripes?
Post by: Charlie Nakatestes, Japanese Golfer on July 15, 2003, 09:14:00 am: Mr. White should count himself lucky to be able to date the talented Ms. Zelwegger. Most rock stars are stuck with dating that whiny bitch Winona Ryder.
Title: Re: White Stripes?
Post by: kosmo vinyl on July 15, 2003, 09:22:00 am: it must be love if renee is in detroit, wonder if he was giving her a tour of his old hood.

i saw on imdb that "edge of reason" is scheduled to start shooting in nov with renee, etc . but as kosmette points out it's just a different version of "the beach".

At least I won't be asking her to pick up some Viagra on the way home, my elderly friend. By the way, you've stooped to making fun of my screenname? I assume the Mankie/Wankie thing is intentional...

By the way, is your screen name "walkman" because you're too young to drive.

A win eh? Does that make you the WORLD CHAMPION as with most contest the yanks get involved in?

I'd say I won actually because at least my comments were original and not stolen from scientist markie wk...let's call it a draw because I'm bored with it.

" MANCHESTER, SO MUCH TO ANSWER FOR. " 05/06/03
Tuesday, May 6th, 2003
9pm+, No cover, 21 & up
Venue: Cinema Classics (212-677-1027)
332 East 11th Street btw. 1st & 2nd Ave, NYC

Contra salutes the great bands & music from Manchester, UK by spinning an all-night, exclusively Mancunian soundtrack. Think Buzzcocks, Joy Division, The Smiths, James, New Order, The Fall, Chameleons, The Stone Roses, Happy Mondays, 808 State, etc. The focus will be on the scene's heyday of the 80's & early 90's, but contemporary bands will also be showcased. Suggestions and comments are always welcome.

I bet I could get Jag to come to NY for a dirty weekend with me for this one too! (I realize it's on Tuesday and has passed Rhett, GGW and other resident board smart-arses, it's just a joke!)
