i think they look great too. sometimes i think jack looks hot and sometimes i think he looks super weird. this is a hot moment. i'm very anxious to hear this album.

They better go back to basics on this album. No more fucking piano. Get Behind Me Satan was crap, and Elephant was average. We need the raw energy of the first 3 albums this time.

Why does Jack White have to be so fucking cool? I can't stand how awesome he is. The Rock Enigma of our generation.

Please. She would be tackled at the Churchill Downs parking gate before getting into Derby for that hot mess.

They for real need to make themselves relevant again, because this supercalifragilisticexpialidocious shit ain't working.

Are you sure this photo wasn't inspired by H.R. Pufnstuf? The only thing missing is Freddie the Flute.
