Re: Final 5 Acoustic Shows
Seems like a lot of work organizing, getting up to Alaska, and then only performing 3 songs. But, it's Jack White so damn near anything goes. Gotta remember he played a 1 note song/show in a Canadian providence.....

Re: Final 5 Acoustic Shows
Agreed - it must be a mistake. For the one-note show, i think it was positioned that way. That DVD is so good but so heartbreaking at times because you can see the pain in Meg.rsimms3 wrote:Seems like a lot of work organizing, getting up to Alaska, and then only performing 3 songs.

Re: Final 5 Acoustic Shows
When the lights finally dimmed, excitement inside reached it’s peak. The stage setup was simple:
Four performers: Jack White, Fats Kaplin, Lillie Mae Rische and Dominic Davis
Four ribbon microphones
Acoustic instruments, including: a guitar, bass, mandolin, dobro, banjo, fiddle and violin
Blue-lit streetlights
An American flag and an Alaska flag
The music was a mix of new and old material from White’s library, as well as a few choice American classics. Interlaced between songs was a bit of heartfelt storytelling and some humor from the former White Stripes frontman.
At the end of the show, White stepped to the front of the stage, off-microphone and invited the entire crowd of roughly 900 people to join him in a chorus of “Goodnight Irene.”
When the song was over, the crowd cheered, clapped and hollered as White said, “God Bless you, you’ve been incredible. And I’ve been Jack White” and walked off stage.
If you were in the audience Monday evening, it’s likely you’ll be talking about this show for some time. If you missed it, you have 4 more chances to see it — albeit outside of Alaska — before White takes a break from performing.

Sounds amazing! Glad it was a full show and sounds like a great mix of tunes.

Nice little write up about it. Funny that someone from the audience wished him a happy 4/20!
