Jack White Plays A Surprise Parking Lot Show At SXSW 2011

[jacksondemarre]

He must love that microphone because he kept kissing it.

[3lupon]

"Quiet now...oh there coming" ...priceless

[zhid010]

@MrWills0n i like how jack plays

I dont want him for a kiss

[gaseoussnake1]

I really like how Jack was respectful enough not to steal the show. The concert was really for Steve.

[JiS01]

@gaseoussnake1 How can one like Jack White NOT steal the show? Just being THERE would make him the star! He is the Almighty.

[0TheBestMan]

damn, steve was awesome.

[walgraevemat]

got the impression jack's getting kinda fat :D

[gaseoussnake1]

@walgraevemat He can still rock it though! Haha

[VamosFawkes]

No wonder it only has 3 strings.

[MrWills0n]

are you viewers delusional, this jack white 'want to look like jonny depp' character is pathetically awful.

[overlordRX]

@MrWills0n jack white has always looked like johnny depp, its almost uncanny, its like saying that adam sandler wants to look like bob dylan.

[LexingtonB09]

I was so annoyed I missed this performance. I live in Austin for crying out loud!!!

[brokenzaphyr]

man that guitar has got to be one of the sexiest acoustic I've ever seen.

[edman6968]

Yeah Buddy ! Jack was Excellent !!!!!! SNL I gotta re watch that ASAP ! Well rehearsed, Band was tight and it was reminiscent of the good ol days of Rock & Roll !!!!

[NiocaLove]

Jack White just killed it on SNL!

[chickapac]

Music is wonderful

[FucklyDuckly]

Wow I never heard Steve but he remind me of Beefheart

[GIRLANDLAKAIFORLIFE]

I can't believe i missed out on this :'( I was there last year NOOOOOOOO

[hawaino4]

2 of my greatest guitar heroes in one show!?.. i'm speechless

[MrJspinal]

So sick!

[kunas0woolybugger]

7:30 - thats F'n music!!!! and you can hear it live any day of the week in Mississippi.

[nmg18ismuzik]

I would have loved to have been there! So happy he's got a new album out and I really like his new single 'Love Interruption' so far. Can't wait for Blunderbuss on April 24th

[rebel32degrees]

SXSW is like a playground for music lovers... Haha. Can;t wait for White's new album Blunderbuss. His new vid for Love Interruption is tight.

[sharksmyth]

3:15 messed up srry had to say it

[MsRuffles01]

I love jack white.

Not just cuz he is very good looking but.

Because of the fact that he is such a great musician and hes style is fucken great.

I love this guy ^_^

[schannell77]

28 people must be deaf!

[Alphabex8]

what beautiful guitar!

[ShaneMacgowanFan93]

What's with the skip around 2:10?

[vinniedurrant]

@ShaneMacgowanFan93 It's a glitch in the matrix

[awaak]

Why does he remind me of Jonny Depp?

[oliverandm]

@awaak

They are both weirdos - loveable weirdos!

[Josiah081493]

saw the one and only truck at third man records in Nashville this past fall... got a picture with it.... was quite awesome. met and talked to "Cowboy"

[PhilGMonte]

he should kick bieber's butt.

[seicheberlin]

too bad jack's guitar is out of tune at the beginning :/

[ThisNameWasntUs3d]

I dunno maybe steve should get more strings... imagine what he could do with them :O

[steve19745]

jacks crew didnt like it much when pops started to slay the giant now did they..!!

[steve19745]

cool idea to cover your gear ..very original !

[DukeSecom]

jack is very pale and looks like he hasnt slept in days. whats the song steves playing?

[richardgarcia4497]

@DukeSecom he is always like that

[DukeSecom]

@richardgarcia4497 i know that, i was just pointing it out

[ThanasiManoli]

Steve rips!!! LOVE IT!

[mattyg1234567]

sseasick steve totally ripped off "frying pan" by captain beefheart....look it up

[mattyg1234567]

@mattyg1234567 and he says captain how long over and over......juss sayin yall!

[jessemaes1990]

@mattyg1234567 In blues music like this it's impossible not to "rip off" each other because they all use the same chord progression and licks. It's all in the performance.

[yumgify]

Gosh he reminds me of Edward Scissorhands!

[bobbyrocks338]

I feel like steve sick steve's performance is like every time i've ever tried to get on stage... like an evil electrician just darts in like a phantom and spits on a connection or something and then runs away into the darkness and starts twirling his mustache. I have some cool music that is not a waste of time if you're interested.

[Scumbagization]

even his microphone is cool

[RedPepaZA]

Frikken Awesome! Can't wait for Jack's new album!!!

[toku2008]

2:04 ~~!?

[MrJirotanaka]

めちゃめちゃカッコイイ！

ジャックのギターはファルコンランチャー？

[to0ty]

You're too damn loud Steve!

[Bucketbot16]

I love that artists like Steve can improv when their gear goes haywire. Bieber woulda shit his pants if that happened

[mathayuskill]

@Bucketbot16 why even compare him to bieber....fuck...you might aswell compare him to my 11 month old son....shit atleast then you would be comparing him to someone to does there own shit :D

[nilagorilla]

@Bucketbot16 Bieber would shit his pants just in the presence of musicians such as these guys

[Shar3735]

@Bucketbot16 You mean the Bieb would have shit his spiderman under wear hahaha!!!

[kimonui]

I heard the record company promised Steve some Dramamine. A new Louis Vuitton box to stomp on, (hah. stomp box) and a brand new string of his color choosing for a shoulder strap.

[kimonui]

I was'nt seasick until the cameraman's work.

[kimonui]

wait. he said with no further ado. and then he did further ado.

[akharmon92]

Seasick Steve man...seasick steve

[lickingknives]

Just found out about this guy today....Aaaaand I think I'm in love.

[giygasfeelsgood]

I have never heard of seasick steve until this but i consider myself a fan as of now

[TheRacistsMustDie]

@giygasfeelsgood He's awesome. One of the few artists who can make shows on huge main-stages feel intimate.

[mikeugen]

Love the guy in the white shirt constantly pointing at his package. (starting around 6:20)

[SkirtSoPlain]

How many strings on Steve's geetar?

[blink182isLegendary]

[cracks21229]

SHIT!

[gameraccounts]

@gameraccounts he's cursed with those out of tune (hammer chord) blues

[TinyJiant]

Been a Seasick fan for a while, thanks to Jack for showing him back to his own country. Kinda reminds me of how Hendrix broke, from here, went there, broke out, got huge, came home. Long about way to do but i just hope it gets done.

[MrKoonies]

@TinyJiant hendrix never went "home" to seatlle. he hated it there

[TinyJiant]

@MrKoonies I was speaking of home in the larger since of the States, in trying to prove you know more about Jimi you missed the point of my post (FYI, he toured through Seattle a few times upon returning to the states as a star, as well as part of Curtis Knight’s & Little Richard’s bands before leaving, but again, not the point of my post)

[LetYouSoulShineOut]

@MrKoonies Well Seattle loves Hendrix either way : )

[imournhim]

I just discovered Seasick Steve, and it is 9:14 in the morning. I could go back to bed for the whole day and still feel productive.

[crazyaxe48]

@TsxLive I dont know where you come from ? But chances are 99.99% of the music & Tv comes from the USA or it's a cheap American copy , American's is the standard ! Music & Tv show's around the world are copy's Rock, Rap, soul, country,blues and on and on ! what your country got to offer ?

[crazyaxe48]

You want to hear a great tune ? Go to youtube ,type in The civil war's Barton Hollow

[TheFlatheadpete]

Possibly the two purest musicians alive right there. They don't play it, they FEEL it.  They live it. I love it!

[DGENERATE07]

MOTHER FUCKIN CUT MY WINGS

[TheStationable]

As much as I LOOVE Jack White...Seasick Steve rocked out with three strings.

[crazyaxe48]

Ok I gave that Jack White another try ! Yep He SUCK'S, Now on the other hand SeaSick Steve !

That Dude can Jam! a true Talent, keep the MOJO Steve ! ps a note to cammense clean your ear's or take your head out of the Ostrich hole ! Jack even suck on the guitar !

[crazyaxe48]

That dude look's like Johnny Depp's ugly Brother With no talent !

[cammense]

@crazyaxe48 And you don't understand the meaning of talent apparently..

[crazyaxe48]

@cammense Come on, the dude's voice sounds the he polishes rocket's for a living !

and his guitar playing substandard at best ! It take's no talent to lov no talent & you would know apparently !

[cammense]

@crazyaxe48 *facepalm*

Friend, you don't seem to realise that talent isn't just about technicality, it's emotion and you'd be a liar to say that this has no feeling, try listening to his stuff with The Raconteurs, you might like it..

[Rupertopple]

@crazyaxe48 Both of you have no idea what you're talking about ... he is a good guitarist and voices are relative. He is also a drummer/producer and is very hard working.. happy new year aye?

[crazyaxe48]

@agent8082 what did you say? You wanted Jack's what ? in you mouth

Some people will eat anything !

[agent8082]

@crazyaxe48 LOL, check out The Raconteurs - Level

[MrJmoney156]

6:50 is that Alan from the Hangover?

[Mpapic]

came for jack, stayed for steve

[MrShimass]

Pay attention to what the rednecks are surrounded Jack :D :D

[Puzzlenaut]

I think its safe to say MarcusErection, if the name didn't give it away to start with, is among the most retarded, hateful, racist, homophobic, zealous, W.A.S.P-ish, redneck bigots I have ever had the misfortune to converse with.

[NealZetek]

more black gadgets than faces

[pearlman86]

what a pasty white ghost tit... love sea sick though.

[Arnd74]

cool

[GeorgeGenicidexxx]

whats the first song he plays?

[w31h0ng]

@GeorgeGenicidexxx Buddy Holly- Not Fade Away

[GeorgeGenicidexxx]

whats the first song he plays?

[AAAAtugboats]

same amp lololololol

[dougd1015]

i must have his jacket....

[Eltalstro]

If only I had known that the way to get famous is to suck at guitar and play other people's music I would have done it years ago. Seasick Steve is cool though. As for Marcus erection, he should go suck George W's nuts.

[WastelandSalem]

It's like The Athiarchists setup only sucky

[roryg4ever]

jack white and rory gallagher ftw

[FenderSunset]

somebody buy that dude a new amp lol.

[nathanihensel]

seasick steve is cool

[benji07]

Ever since I watched It Might Get Loud, I've had wayyy respect for Mr. Jack White

[psychosurfer69]

@benji07 me to

[kristofreynders]

he is the perfect roll model for a rock musician ..

[reminiscentofrose]

He seems so nervous

[FenderSunset]

@reminiscentofrose he always does

[JMcBroome]

woop woop go jack!



[Anlimema]

HI EveryOne!

I’m trying to get my dream come true

My dream is to be a successful singer

I want to be different in every way, and hope that people hear me out on my covers

Because MUSIC is who I AM not what I DO…!

I swear my brain is 70% of music… MUSIC is all I need to be me.

My dream can come true with the help of you guys and word of mouth

You can change my life with one simple click on “Thumbs up” and stopping by my channel, in the future I want to say yes "I did it"!

THANK U SO MUCH!

[WantsToSleep]

What the fuck are you guys talking about? Rasicm, Heroin, what does that have to do with anything? Everybody calm down and enjoy the video, this doesn't need to be an electoral debate.

[kaosreMedyz]

& he gets down all while chewing gum!!!! that's PROFESSION in PERFECTION! :)

[bigmike00831]

hes out of tune lol but i still love it

[hazyimperfection7129]

@MarcusErection Does that have ANYTHING to do with this performance?

[MarcusErection]

Jack White is an anti-American liberal, I can't believe how many so called 'conservatives' listen to this man and his liberal propaganda songs, it's disgusting. He champions socialism and the plight of the 'poor working man' being 'held down' by Capitalism, as well communistic ideas such as 'unity' and 'equality'. The mere fact that he played 'blues' music, which has traditionally been used by the lower classes to build resentment against business and the establishment says a lot.

[Foppa921]

@MarcusErection Haha throwing around words like "unity" and "equality," I guess our founding fathers were communists!

[MarcusErection]

@Foppa921 Some, like Jefferson, were absolutely Communists. Even Washington himself has certain socialistic tendencies. Jefferson, by all rights, should have been arrested for treason for several things he championed and attempted to put into motion. Washington should probably have stood trial for some of his anti-American actions.

[Foppa921]

@MarcusErection Ok whatever, but just shut up and enjoy the music!

[Puzzlenaut]

@MarcusErection How the hell could a founding father be unamerican you tool. They CREATED America.

[MarcusErection]

@Puzzlenaut They attempted to destroy America! Thank God there were conservatives around to keep them in line, and the country on the right track, just like nowadays.

[Puzzlenaut]

@MarcusErection Conservatives are crazy, evil, bigoted, racist, homophobic, sexist nazis who would have us all crawling on our knees as bitches to the Corporations and Banks.

Fuck the conservatives.

[MarcusErection]

@Puzzlenaut Typical liberal, always trying to separate people and foster hatred between Americans. I see people on an equal footing and expect people to prosper from their hard work, not reward lazy, good for nothing people for inactivity and sloth and somehow that's bad. Liberals think that they are superior to everyone not them, they call others racist then demand different standards for different people based on their race, they are on Earth to save all the 'lesser' less civilized people.

[Puzzlenaut]

@MarcusErection Then I'm going to ask a simple question; its multiple choice, and does not require an essay for an answer:

Do you think that fighting racism makes you a racist?

a) Yes

b) No

c) STRAW-MAN-TIME!

[MarcusErection]

@Puzzlenaut I do not think that racism would exist if not for the Liberals feeding it and using it as a liferaft to keep their outdated socialist dreams for the world afloat

[donttellmetogetaroom]

@MarcusErection haha nice

[MrAlbinoPanther]

@MarcusErection What's so bad about socialism?

[luis88oliveira]

thumbs up to that. And I'm not even american

[will24147]

@MarcusErection Yes, he's a real socialist and he wants to destroy the USA.

[marilisa616]

I forgot how much I loved this song!! and this singer!

[awsomericskate]

Jim Morison in the background no biggie

[TheProgmagog]

Killer Jack. Thanks for the Buddy Holly tune. Dead Leaves... is my favorite WS song. The most killer version I heard was on Saturday Night Live. That episode turned me on to this genius. That show turned me on to SO much great stuff. Tori Amos, The Sugar Cubes (Björk)...

[rocketloopz]

wtf happened at 2:04 or 2:05?

[AndoCommando3]

seasick steve is great! I saw him on Top Gear a while back and have been listening to his music ever since then.

[slwhnd2008]

There used to be a place in Cambridge, Md owned by Dave and Dave - they asked me to play there for their opening and this is pretty much how I saw it

[lucasbragap]

does anyone know the model of the jack's guitar pretty please?
