Yeah it was the same festival.

I read on that same site the other day that Ron Sexsmith & Joel Plaskett were also confirmed apparently. They usually have a pretty decent line-up, last year they had Matt Mays, The Novaks, Wintersleep, Joel Plaskett Emergency, In Flight Safety, 2 Hours Traffic, The Sadies, etc. The year before a lot of the above acts were there, alongwith Buck 65, Jimmy Swift, etc. etc.

Not to hi-jack this thread or anything, but I saw 2 Hours Traffic open up for the Trews at a small bar here in Brantford, they were really good.

Just got this email today:

Hello Children,

The White Stripes are teaming up with NME for a unique record release to help celebrate the band's 10th Anniversary and reveal new material. A very special limited edition gatefold red vinyl 7"single, featuring the track 'Rag And Bone' on side A and an etching on side B, will be available free with every copy of NME on sale June 6th. Less than a week later on June 11th, a white vinyl 7" of the new album's title track 'Icky Thump', containing a different etching on the flipside, will be available in stores as a companion to complete the NME distributed gatefold.

Thanks,
The White Stripes newsletter team

Very cool, too bad I have no way to play vinyl anymore..

When they do a Canadian tour, THEY DO A CANADIAN TOUR! hock:

No sign of the Shoreline Festival but they are playing at the Civic Centre. Two shows on PEI? Is it possible? hock: hock: hock:

BTW, when do tickets go on sale? I am almost 100% for the Charlottetown show assuming I'm still on PEI in July, which is an almost certainty.

I am very pumped about this, I can't wait to see them live again. That last Amphitheatre show catapulted me into a super fan. I'm going to the Amphitheatre show and probably the JLC show as well.

FACK!!! Why does my summer have to be so booked up already!! Can't make the show and I was really looking forward to their next tour. I've always wanted to see them live. :rambo:

just heard the single on the radio and..................OMFG

It's amazing. I'll be at the Calgary show for sure...anyone got a download link for a decent version of Icky thump?

[Kincher]

I was really hoping for two BC dates, like somewhere outside of the lower mainland. Looks like I will be missing them again. Next time..... fingers crossed.

Im sure it will surface soon enough, but if you want a good copy now its supposed to be available on iTunes today. I haven't heard anything on the radio yet, Im dying to hear it!

That Jack is one busy dude, he's already working on the next Raconteurs album.. <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.chartattack.com/damn/2007/04/2505.cfm">http://www.chartattack.com/damn/2007/04/2505.cfm</a><!-- m --> But its still ways away, 2008 release.

[Gangrel]

They are playing 2 dates in Yellowknife AND one in Iqaluit? These guys are insane.....

I've never heard of a big band playing the Great White North.....
