The White Stripes

Check Out: www.MikeLipnowski.com

On July 2, 2007, a small group of dedicated White Stripes fans got an excellent surprise. A message was left on a message board that said: "Please meet us at the southeast corner of Water Avenue and Waterfront Drive (near the Provencher Bridge) at 3:10pm SHARP. Further instructions will be delivered there".

Around 100 people arrived 10 minutes after the message was posted. Only a few (Including myself and Free Press Photographer, David Lipnowski) made it onto a Winnipeg Transit bus where they were soon joined by Jack and Meg White. They played wheels on the bus, and Hotel Yorba for these incredibly lucky fans. They left the bus after the two songs, and thanked the fans. They hopped into a white van and headed on down to the Provencher bridge.

David and I ran from portage and main, to the forks and arrived in time to hear them play We're gonna be friends. Jack then had a jam session with one lucky busker.
