Question... (singer, country, drum, rock, album)

nothing_special · 01-21-2005, 07:19 PM

A friend told me that The White Stripes anounced on CMT that they would no longer be a rock group, and that they were going to play only country songs. Just curious if that was true or not. Does anyone know?

I like the White Stripes, and I'm sure I'm not the only one. You don't have to be an A**hole. It's my opinion. I won't judge you on yours. If you have such a big problem with them, then you shouldn't have wrote anything at all.

I cant imagine them going country... Itd just be wierd. I googled it though and I found this : http://launch.yahoo.com/read/news/12026736
Apparently he's just recording an album and touring with Loretta Lynn.

I can imagine it, considering they have always had country roots.

You probably don't wanna hear me say this but I'll take a stab at it.

I usually don't watch the news adn i rarely read the 'news' that appears in the paper. Unless reading the comics and the horoscope counts.
Nonetheless to get to the point I'm pretty sure if such a thing was true you could find out at an official website of theirs if you really wanted to know.

And if you're a fan of the White Stripes you should probaly stop reading.
The White Stripes couldn't make money as a punk band, a emo band, what in tarnation makes you think they'll have success as a freaking country band?
Even if they do split up this means that well have two more suckey groups in the music industry.
And I feel so sad for the coutny music indutry already. And I feel wors cause I atcually like some country music. Like LeeAnn Womack, Faith hill and that's about it. (If LeeAnn Rimes counts as country then I like her too)

I need a nutter butter now. I swear I'm about to die if i don't get a powerade or something.
Peace out.

But they've made tons of money. They're rolling in it. And they're more blues than anything else.
