Meg White Is Amazing!!

Try BIG Rapids -- cheaper and weirder. Hell, go for Tustin or Elk Rapids or something: it's basically like if you took Twin Peaks and re-cast it with 200 imaginary Jack-and-Meg offspring.

she gets the most undeserved bad rap of any drummer in history. i like her super stompy minimalism. like what do people want for that band? neil peart or some shit?

OTM

I'll get started on the mashup immediately.

Matt OTM re: her drumming

That could just as well be an ultragrrrl sex tape as a meg white one. It looks like what I imagine every Killers/My Chemical Romance fan sex tape to look like.

fapfapfap

Yeah, now that you mention it, it actually *does* look a little bit more like Ultragrrrl.

How is Meg live?

very unsteady tempos, the one time i saw the stripes play. no, i don't expect neil peart, but it did detract from their sound imo. OTM about the ride cymbal bashing too, but i still think she sounds pretty good on the records

she didnt mean 'live' like that

I just don't understand these conceptions of Meg's drumming not being completely integral to the White Stripes' "sound" (as if there are parts she's not doing justice too, or that they could be played better by some other drummer - Meg's minimalist style is one of THE identifying hallmarks of the band. Its like saying the Sparks are okay but Ron Mael's piano playing really holds back the material or something)

agreed

meg white RIP

I prefer Vanessa Hudgens. As the White Stripes drummer.

hahah

haha when i saw this thread title i was wondering if it was an old thread or if someone was easily impressed w/ sex tapes

she IS a huge part of the stripes sound and they are all the better for it, but she still uses the cymbal bashing trick too much

Yeah, I totally agree about her drumming - further evidenced by the fact that that other band Jack White is in with a "real" drummer completely blows.

she should get some other cymbals

and a gong

ride cymbal is the best cymbal

She certainly does know how to ride a cymbal, amirite?

(NB, I haven't actually clicked on that link)

She does have some nice tom-toms
She does have good stick control
Her single stroke role is impeccable

(roll)

looks like he's gonna give her a Pearl Export for her birthday!

Whoa dude.

omg

oh god gross is that what white stripes refers to *weeps for lost innocence*

pitchfork.com is anti-tits.

pitchfork.com is a farm-supply website, I'm sure they've got a hookup on some sort of milking device

roffle!

nabisco in paragraph mode >>> nabisco in 50 one-liners mode

Fair play to the guy for giving it the old "finger in the mouth" routine, but that always makes me feel like I'm inspecting a racehorse for tooth decay.

fingers in mouth is instinctive act of primal lust, not opportunity for some reflective lulz

You probably shouldn't post to this thread.

if i need a sex tape from the burger king handicapped stall ill IM you

There are lots of things I can spin multiple paragraphs out of, but "there's a sex video on the internet and the girl looks vaguely like Meg White" is SO not one of them.

liar

thats not true at all; all that stuff about grand rapids above could have easily been a 300-wd, 2-paragraph nabisco classic instead of a copy-and-pasted IM session and a couple follow ups

haha why did just spend 40 seconds of my life trying to argue with nabisco about whether or not he could have written more about meg white making the beast with two backs

Jag offed

what ladies does the am0n ride 4

how could anybody who has seen a photo of Meg White think this was Meg White

Rude!

And wrong! He was as important to their sound as Johnny.

Hell, I'd settle for a Style Council reunion.

The Jam won't happen ofc but Weller, Talbot, Dee and Steve played It's a Very Deep Sea at the end of the SC documentary
