Well, the Canadians seemed pretty happy about it, actually. The White Stripes had been performing at odd venues all over Canada in a quest to play in every province and territory in our great northern neighbor; yesterday, realizing that they were one province (Newfoundland) away from achieving this goal, and that “playing a show” would really only require them to play a single note, they did exactly that. Here’s video from the one-note show, yesterday in St. John’s, Newfoundland:
Yes, the audience is chanting “One more note!” But don’t worry about the poor Newfoundlandians: the Stripes did a full two-hour gig for ’em later that night. Check Stereogum for some awesome pictures of the roadies tuning up the gear before the one-note performance, go here for upcoming US dates.
