That really bugged me during the Oz tour - I saw so many things thrown - at the first melbourne show this one girl threw 2 joints and then later a hip flask and screamed "sign my flask". In Auckland someone threw a cigarette at Dean and it landed between his guitar and his shirt ( :evil: ). Cigarettes were a popular choice to throw in almost all of the shows, and empty cans were thrown too - i can't imagine it would be that appreciated ever...

We were in the front at last years HOB gig in New Orleans with some swell Vault members. Once the opening band finished up, some aggressive woman worked her way behind us and tried pushing her way in. When she didn't get any further she started hurling insults and left. But she showed up a few minutes into the set and stood behind my husband calling me a bitch and threatening me by saying that her father is in the mafia and she was going to get him and F*CK me up bad. Eventually he just stared her down and she left.

I'd planned to hang out with my new friends afterwards and walk back to the hotel alone, but neither my husband or I felt terribly safe with me hanging out after that. People are cuckoo.

I had similar at the Perth show without the death threats - the girl behind me was given suprising strength once JW got on stage...

Thank gawd you will be there to render your own form of justice; being juddge and jury and making decisions on who to harass with a holierthanthou punk-ass attitude. Of course, unless someone is behaving in the manner you describe they are not worthy, not enjoying the show and deserve your pointed assault. Sweet.
*AHEM* About 00:20 in... ;)

well caught my flight outta milwaukee noticed on the plane that i lost my fucking ticket so i freaked out. Luckily the show didn't sell out and i got my ticket. I had my ipod so i could check my email for early entry, fucking ipod died on me so never knew that i got the email til i got home :x . But I met some really cool people and the dead weather were fucking amazing! Allison came right up to me at the corner of the stage but all i could do was let my jaw drop to the floor :oops:. I was up for 46 hours straight but what an amazing time. Really hope they add a chicago date but if not bring on bonnaroo!

Jack White - "This morning i came to Las Vegas and shot a fully automatic Thompson sub machine gun ... This is Baby Ruthless's first time in Vegas... sure wont be her last"
Jack was so tired he forgot to introduce LJ when he was introducing the band, But none the less it was a great show, okay crowd, short set but sweet.
Had a major issue with my tickets being purchased through the fan club pre-sale but i need to email TMR before i talk about it on here.

yah only that one red thing got thrown onstage i had a drunk guy behind me who was yelling at the ettes(who i was pretty surprised by, im going to start looking into them) Very happy with my first Jack experience even if it was the dead weather. I love all of jack bands and each has their own place in my collection but the dead weather are really getting close to the top. oh and Will there be enough water was fucking awesome...mkuborn how long did it take to break that string?

It didnt take long and they extended the song SO long because he played it completely different and they all had to figure out what he was doing. Amazing is not a strong enough word, just knowing it will NEVER be played just like that again is great. I am sad no one else but us two on here are chiming in on what an epic show this was.

i was trying to find people i knew there i was on lj's side of the stage in the corner. I've been missing out for years on getting to see Jack, but that one song made it all worthwhile. I honestly was speechless my girlfriend called after the show and asked how it was and i couldn't tell her :D I was completely blown away.

Sounds like a great show. Coachella, not so great.... Disengaged crowd Tiesto pumping 200 yards away (they came on stage just before water and completely destroyed the vibe). The rest of the festival was fuckin awesome Dead Weather, weakest performance of the three shows I have seen. Hope the knock it up a notch for Bonnaroo.

Did anybody check the webcast how did it sound???
Don't believe the 60's was the golden age of pop. You glorify the past when the future dries up.
