    It has been pointed out to me before that country is always behind the curve... mullets, then goatees, and now THIS :irked:

    If you're not going to evacuate, the best thing you could do is gather a lynch mob and blow up all those buildings on Music Row. Pat Boone covering AC/DC was just funny; this is downright insulting.

    They're trying to find that same lightening that Johnny Cash found covering NIN and Danzig.. Did Rick Rubin have anything to do with this?

    I see no reason why they can't cover an amazing band. Jack White is an innovator.

    At least Cash could pull off the sentiment of "Hurt", and believably.

    Dunno about the Rick Rubin thing.

    Explain, please.

    I understand that jack is a good songwriter, but 'amazing band'? No. Nothing amazing about them at all, unless you mean "makes any halfway sober recording engineer cringe in the corner while begging for mercy to make it stop". That's pretty amazing.

    I can't wrap my brain around the "innovator" part at all.

    The White Stripes live in Nashville..plus at least they picked a good song to cover :p

    Either though i hate country, this isn't that big of a deal and its not horrible.

    Okay, I may have stepped over my bounds when I said that the White Stripes were a "great band", however, I believe Jack White to be the savior of Rock N' Roll. Yes we all believe rock is dead, but its his nostaligic spirit that keeps it alive for those that listen hard enough.

    Okay, that I can get behind. They're really not my thing, but I can see how he's led a charge to refocus rock.
