See Jack Act

The new MLive Detroit (which MCR contributes too), has the details on a little unknown Jack White movie acting gig from the late 1990’s in the movie Mutant Swingers From Mars by local cult horror movie director Michael Kallio.  The movie has new life as it will be shown later this month at Comic-Con (see Jack act at 1:06 and 1:40).

The Dead Weather

the dead weather The Dead Weather blanche The “internets” are ablaze this evening with the announcement of Jack White’s latest super-group The Dead Weather – featuring Alison Mosshart (Kills) on vocals, guitarist Dean Fertita (Raconteurs, Waxwings, Queens of the Stone Age) and bassist Jack Lawrence (Raconteurs, Blanche, Greenhorns) and Jack White on drums and backing vocals (they’ve got two songs posted up on their web site now so check them out.)

Sheryl Crow, Martina McBride and Meg White, were among more than 150 guests at a private party to hear the debut Dead Weather album Horehound and to see a live performance by the group earlier today in Nashville. Jack White says the album will be released in June on his Third Man record label and that the band plans to tour throughout this year.

Editors Note: This is not the first time Jack White has played drums in a band before.  White played drums in the Detroit area bands Goober & The Peas and Two Star Tabernacle in the mid 1990’s with Dan Miller of Blanche.
