i like them.  i find this sad.  i feel it is because meg got tired of jack being too interested in too many other things, in other words . . . not including her.  jealousy is bitch, i guess now so is she.  the shows i saw will forever remembered as, awesome!

Nah, just really don't care for Jack White.

Yeah, a bit of a bummer, although I agree with what vansmack (I think?) said in the death thread: bands have expiration dates, and they realized theirs.

I'd say De Stjil through Get Behind Me Satan are all killer records, but there was definitely a feeling of the band's lack of interest in the last record.  Still pretty killer live, though.

Its a joke, but I also found odd that ex-wife Meg, stood up at one of his weddings as the little sister

Hey that's great news. Can we start a petition to retire all of Jackoff White's other bands, as well as retire him from producing as well?

I did not.  I concurred with Beetsnotbeats who authored the original sentiment.

And here I thought that they broke up a couple years ago.   

Goes to show how little I care about this news.

[azaghal1981]

Shhhh....you'll be called names on here for not caring!
