That is quite interesting but not surprising. I remember seeing him throw a towel across stage at Meg and full on cuss her out and thinking he'd possibly be a bit of pig at times. It was pretty disrespectful and demeaning. A friend worked one if their shows once and he told me that Jack was getting right up to her and yelling "I hate you, I hate you" in the middle of a song. That's one way to build tension in a performance I suppose.

To be fair Stollsteimer comes across as an even bigger jerk. I can understand why someone would want to pummel his head in.

Put my 45" of Hang you from the heavens/ Are friends electric? today and it reminded me how good DW was. I hope they get together someday soon and make another album.

It will take a lot for me to dislike this man. There is no other popular figure in the arts that I identify with more. It's probably the self-tormenting Catholic in him.
Anyway, it's true though. There are striking similarities to both White and Auerbach's career & business paths. It's borderline creepy.
Its just kind of amusing that Jack is upset over Dan Auerbach being derivative of his work when in reality Jack whites music is quite derivative in itself.

I love both.
I was thinking reading that, how funny it is that Jack would be mad about other artist stealing from him... when his whole career was jumped started from borrowing blues riffs and covering blues songs... hell, his most famous song (arguably) is built around a Offspring riff (7 Nation Army)

I think it's safe to say Jack White has never even heard that Offspring song. It's more likely based on a figure appearing in Bruckner's Fifth symphony.
As with all these things there are two sides to every story and no doubt a grain of truth to both........
I still like the guy. He's got strong principals and he's a little bit nutty.
