White Stripes, 'Dead Leaves and the Dirty Ground' (Live) -- Video Premiere

White StripesIn the summer of 2007, the White Stripes embarked on a great adventure ... in Canada. Following a path that was, in some ways, similar to the legendary Festival Express tour which chugged and lugged across that country in 1970, Jack and Meg White took their show across the Canadian countryside, hitting every province and territory. It's something that few American acts have ever attempted but, then again, the White Stripes aren't your typical American rock band.

On March 16, the White Stripes will release a limited-edition box set that celebrates and commemorates that tour with a smorgasbord of treats. In the set, fans will find a live compilation of tour highlights presented on both CD and vinyl, a DVD of their 10th Anniversary Show ('The White Stripes Under Nova Scotian Lights'), and, of course, a documentary of the tour at large ('The White Stripes Under Great White Northern Lights'). But reach your hand all the way in the box -- there's more, including a hardcover book, some silk-screened prints and even more vinyl. It all sounds kind of, well, grand, kind of like the Canadian countryside at large.

We'll let you take a look for yourself and draw your own conclusions -- check out this exclusive premiere video clip of the White Stripes performing 'Dead Leaves and the Dirty Ground' taken from the 10th Anniversary Show. Blow out the candles first -- if we are to believe the DVD title, this is best viewed "under Nova Scotian lights."
