Watch Jack White Play An Unhinged “That Black Bat Licorice” On The Tonight Show
Jack White is getting to be nearly as tight with Jimmy Fallon as he always has been with Conan O’Brien. Last year, White appeared on Fallon’s Tonight Show twice: Once with Neil Young, and once on his own. And last night, White was back on the show again, keeping the promotional cycle for his Lazaretto album rolling a year later. On the show, he played “That Black Bat Licorice,” one of the album’s most feral and deranged songs. His band continues to be one of the weirdest, most personality-filled backing units in all of pop music; I keep wanting to hear the story on why he has General Custer playing fiddle for him. Watch the performance below.
