  • The White Stripes are full of surprises during their jaunt across Canada. After a message board spread rumors of a secret Stripes show in Winnipeg, Manitoba, a few lucky fans boarded a transit bus and were greeted by Jack and Meg at the next stop. Check out this shaky video of the band performing “The Wheels on the Bus” and “Hotel Yorba.”

Jack and Meg are awesome | 7/3/2007, 3:39 pm EST

Do the White Stripes ever fail to meet everybody’s wildest expectations?

Best rock band in the world currently (except maybe u2 and the stones, obviously…but they come mighty close!), wish i could have been on that bus.

They are so adorable, too. Is anybody cuter than that couple there?

The White Stripes sounded like crap.about half the crowd left early.I did.Big time SUCKING.

Jon | 7/3/2007, 3:44 pm EST

The White Stripes worst band around! The new CD sux & it’s out of the TOP TEN.

Losers!

Stace | 7/3/2007, 3:45 pm EST

Meg is a FATTY & Jack looks like Jack-o.

Gene | 7/3/2007, 3:48 pm EST

Worst CD of the year! White Stripes are DEAD!

KurtVon | 7/3/2007, 3:49 pm EST

Jon – you are an idiot. You probably like Linkin Park and Nickelback. Sure they sell millions, but they SUCK!

Kurt Von | 7/3/2007, 3:50 pm EST

Gene, you must hang out with Jon. The Stripes are freaking awesome!

Kurt Von | 7/3/2007, 3:51 pm EST

Jon – Let me guess, you are a Linkin Park/Nickelback fan. Bands that sell millions but suck! The Stripes are one of the best bands alive right now.

Minutes before my grandmother died she let out a series of loud farts.They sounded better than any track on the new White Stripes CD.Avoid.

Regarding ‘The White Stripes’: I’ve never seen a band create such polarized reactions on these boards (although to be fair, the negatives are usually grammatically poor cheap-shots). But let the haters hate. Everyone who truly counts know that the Stripes kick ass.

The Manson/Cooper crack marks the first time a news roundup made me grin.

Hy Zaret dead at ninety-nine? Jesus, he really wanted to enjoy those royalties as long as possible, huh?

OK | 7/3/2007, 4:08 pm EST

the outfits are a cheap joke but the new CD is decent,IMO.

Grandma Marie | 7/3/2007, 4:10 pm EST

Oh what a lovely pair that Meg and Jack playing such beautiful music together. May the Lord Jesus bless them.

Brett | 7/3/2007, 4:13 pm EST

Goddamn! I live in Winnipeg! And I had no clue! Arrggh!

Normal | 7/3/2007, 4:16 pm EST

they might have good music, but they are not adorable. they are ugly

agreed | 7/3/2007, 8:47 pm EST

there are plenty worse bands to make fun of. I’m no fan myself but worst band around? How could you put them below all the manufactured garbage that gets on the top 40?

HEAVY METAL RULES | 7/3/2007, 10:10 pm EST

this band sux

Always funny when the white stripes are said to be worse than emo. what a polarizing band. They are certainly the best rock band that has hit the mainstream in the past 7 years. Sorry linkin park doesn’t count. This band elicits so much hatred but it usually goes away when they listen to a few albums. Reserve your hate for manufactured bands.

Jimmy Page, Bob Dylan, Billy Gibbons, Loretta Lynn, Lou Reed and others have all publicly stated to love this band. Are you saying they are wrong?

Take a minute to listen to them before you inexplicably bash them.

The White Stripes are what I call an alternative to so called alternative rock. There’s quite a diversity in their current album and the songs are full of hooks. This album should be considered for a grammy next year.

“Unchained Melody” was actually recorded by Al Hibbler and several others back in the fifties, a decade before the Righteous Brothers recorded it. There are many people who think that the Righteous Brothers were the first to do it, and some even think it was written specifically for the movie Ghost.

JIMMY PAGE | 7/4/2007, 8:05 pm EST

The White Stripes are SH!TE.

Jase | 7/4/2007, 8:07 pm EST

Worse than ANY top 40 stuff,The White Stripes are utter crap.

Mike | 7/4/2007, 10:31 pm EST

White Stripes rock well and Meg is hot, Stace. Maybe a fatty by Nicole Ritchie standards, but that skinny sure ain’t hot.

Jacky White | 7/27/2007, 7:38 am EST

The Stripes have gotta be one of the best bands around, there new album may not be the best but they still Rock!!
