White Stripes play for Chelsea Pensioners

[tomhalling]

Oh for fucks sake I should have guessed they would be completely ignorant of the band's blues roots and tell the old guys to throw the horns and expect a noisy metal band

the pensioners dress like the white stripes..

or should i say the white stripes dress like them

I wish I'd known about this at the time! the stripes are my favorite americans, and Jack is one of my alltime fav musicians, it is outstanding for performers of their generation (and standing) to recognise what these old boys (the chelsea pensioners) did for US, They sacrificed SO much in wars against fascists and other dictatorships so that we can live in freedom that we generally just take for granted. Just to raise awareness of the C.P's is a great thing... all power to Jack & Meg White!!

What a lovely gesture. How kind of them to think of others.
