J Dog Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 Russ (or anyone who has seen JW this tour) - which Lazaretto songs did you like better live? I'll list the ones I heard and my thoughts about each one.Lazaretto - love it both studio and live. Neither shines that much more one way for meTemporary Ground - I like the studio but loved it live.WYFFML - love both but was a little surprised that it held its ground in a live setting!High Ball Stepper - I like the studio but loved it live. So much more improvisation live!Just One Drink - studio is decent but it absolutely rocked live!Alone in my Home - I think this didn't work as well live. Or better yet, I just didn't appreciate it as much as the studioThat Black Bat Licorice - not really a fan a of the studio version but it too rocked in a live setting.High Ball Stepper was on another level live.They all really rocked live. Temporary Ground is one that I'm not a big fan of from the album but loved it live. That little fiddle player/singer is awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RussTCB Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 How does the vault work? Do you pay a yearly membership to be able to buy the packages? Or are the packages free with the membership?You pay $60 for a 3-month membership. Each 3-month membership comes with a unique Vault Package (like the one above). They take orders for a month and then press them and send them out to everyone. They are not pressed for the masses so if you missed the opportunity then your only of buying them after is via eBay (or other similar sites).Got the address confirmation email for #22 yesterday!!!!!They're doing internation Z-A first again this time, then US Z-A. I should still get mine by xmas though. So pumped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucky I did because for some strange reason I wasn't on their list for VP-22. Everything is sorted out now and I'm back on!

Coma16 Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 Where the FUCK is the DW albumI've enjoyed the singles so far but a new album is overdue. Likely got put on the back-burner for Lazaretto and will come out in 2015. I'm hoping for a new Raconteurs album as well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coma16 Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 Full description and tracklist:As 2015 marks ten years since the release of the White Stripes’ Get Behind Me Satan album and tour, Third Man Records is proud to use that as the focus of its 23rd Vault package. Completely dedicated to the White Stripes and highlighting their time in South America in 2005, this release should leave fans beyond satisfied.Anchoring the box is the double LP Under Amazonian Lights recorded live in Manaus, Brazil on June 1st, 2005. Described by the local press as “deliciously irresponsible” and the first rock concert ever at the grand Teatro Amazonas Opera House, the performance that night was nothing short of amazing. Featuring a sublime cover of Bob Dylan’s “Lovesick Blues”, two versions (one electric, one acoustic) of “The Same Boy You’ve Always Known”, two versions of “Passive Manipulation” (both sublime) a snippet of Howlin Wolf’s “I Asked For Water” and ample marimba on “The Nurse” and what you have is one of the most iconic and memorable shows the White Stripes ever played. Both LPs will be pressed on blood red vinyl with stark black wisps.So it should come as no surprise that we’d pair this LP with DVD footage from that performance. Words do not ably describe the beauty of the Teatro Amazonas nor the furor riled up by the White Stripes appearance. Not only was there fear that the amplification of the band would cause the plaster in the building to crack and possible fall and injure attendees, but out of custom/fear/lord-knows-what the crowd remained seated until being explicitly asked to stand from the stage by Jack White himself. If that wasn’t enough, during the show Jack and Meg ventured outside the venue to play an entirely unamplified version of “We Are Going to Be Friends” for the assembled multitude of fans unable to purchase tickets and watching the performance via closed-circuit feed. The resultant melee was arguably a riot and was lovingly captured by the film crew documenting that evening’s importance. All together what it makes is one of the best true rock and roll moments of the past decade. Heck, Jack White even got married that day.The accompanying 7” single is a perfect example of the material the Vault was explicitly created to release. “Let You Down” is a solo recording done by Jack White roundabout the year 2000. Featuring both electric guitar and electric bass, the true meat here is the multi-tracked four-part harmony voiced by White throughout the song. The entirety of lyrics here “No I’m never, no I’m never, no I’m never gonna let you down now” would be repurposed into the White Stripes 2005 recording “The Nurse” and the overall germination illustrated here is devilishly insightful. The b-side “Ain’t No Sweeter Than Rita Blues” is a quintessential White Stripes guitar/drums outtake instrumental that was recorded during the tracking of Get Behind Me Satan and subsequently unused and forgotten for the past ten years. Dare we say it’s everything you hope it would be, pressed on wonderful white vinyl and ready for your love.If that was not enough (and really, it should be) Third Man has decided to throw caution to the wind and absolutely overload this package with more extras than any sane record label would ever consider. We’ve poked the Grammy Award-winning designer Rob Jones to put together a collection of newly designed postcards celebrating the White Stripes performances in Brazil in 2005. In one word…stunning. Rob was gracious enough to throw in a badass death head monkey design that was so tasty we had to turn it into substantive enamel pin. A silk-screened White Stripes poster with some super-secret hidden glow in the dark graphics was a no-brainer. If you’re wondering where you’ll keep this vast assortment of sundries, worry you no longer…a soft touch, telescoping box with the same devilish death head monkey graphic on the cover will become a new member in Vault households worldwide. Join the family now.LP tracklisting:Blue OrchidDead Leaves and the Dirty GroundBlack MathLove Sick (Bob Dylan)My DoorbellPassive ManipulationHotel YorbaThe Same Boy You’ve Always Known (electric)The Same Boy You’ve Always Known (acoustic)Little GhostWhen I Hear My NameI Asked For Water (Howlin Wolf)Fell in Love With a GirlThe NurseLittle BirdDeath Letter (Son House)St. James Infirmary (traditional)ScrewdriverPassive Manipulation (reprise)I Just Don’t Know What to Do With Myself(I’ll Be With You) In Apple Blossom Time (Albert Von Tilzer/Neville Fleeson)I Just Don’t Know What to Do With Myself (continued)Seven Nation Army 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mansin Humanity Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 Not Jack White, that's for sure. It's a rap collaboration between Killer Mike and El-P and their second record, Run The Jewels 2, was my favorite of 2014.

Coma16 Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 ^^^both those songs are pretty good. Not sure how it will mess with JW fans though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan H. Posted January 8, 2015 Author Share Posted January 8, 2015 Jack White fans are hipsters, so they'll lap up RTJ.They're both fantastic, unique artists, and it's super cool that he's selecting openers of a different genre.Wish I could see that show, RTJ is blowing up. I wish they'd put their releases on Spotify though 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RussTCB Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 Third Man opened a record store in Detroit today and it'll eventually have a pressing plant too. I went down there a bit ago but the lines were still way too long. I'm gonna try again in the middle of the day next week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
