Jack White you little ****!
(yes, I know he'll never read this)
I am one of those 5600 fans you discarded in Radio City Music Hall September 29th. I've had some time to think about it. Here are some thoughts:
1) You don't have a right to fans, you earn them. You earn them every night you perform. You little rat bastard.
2) If the crowd isn't showing you the love you think you deserve, do something to deserve it. This is your show, make it work. You narcissistic little control freak.
3) If the sound isn't to your pleasing, Fix It. This is Radio City MUSIC Hall, for god's sake.
If I sound bitter, I am. I flew 560 miles, took a day off work, spent two nights in a Manhattan hotel, all because I figured Jack White, at this venue, would put on a fantastic show. What the hell was I thinking?
4) Doing two encores the next night does nothing for fans from the previous night. It might show that there is a shred of a soul in there somewhere that feels remorse. Or, it might prove that you have enough sense to surround yourself with someone who phones that in for you and/or convinces you to act as if you did.
5) Flying through a song list at light speed tempo may come off as exhilarating and daring but it can also sound like someone who's just throwing a tantrum and wants to get outta there as fast as possible. I don't know, I wasn't there but I'm guessing the latter.
Whatever your issues are, take them up with whoever is causing them. If I'm the one causing you any issues, don't worry, I'm out.
If you're scared you're "Slowly Turning Into" someone, I'm guessing it's any of a long stream of Flame Outs who forgot how and why they are doing what they do. Buona Fortuna.
