    You know it's real rock n roll when it sounds like the best thing you ever heard but it all could fall apart at any moment. Not many musicians can walk that line but this is proof it can be done.

    I think all guitarists understand just how fuckin' hard it is to play totally perfect 100% of the time as Jack is here. Like, Jack is the sole source of melodic content here in this song. He has to be totally on all of the time just to even make the song work. Dude plays bass parts on guitar while he also plays lead guitar at like the same time lol. He just had to be perfect at his job, and he definitely delivered.

    A true rock 'n' roll moment on television. It was 2002 and I just had my mind blown by The Strokes (also on SNL). I kept hearing The White Stripes mentioned alongside them but had not heard them yet. While in line at In-N-Out in Downey, CA, KROQ 106.7 played this track and my mouth was in my lap! I went to Middle Earth Records to find a CD and was puzzled that there were only two people on the cover. Where was the rest of the band? Now knowing they were only a duo, my buddy and I anxiously awaited the SNL performance. I thought Jack was just going to stand there while she drummed in the background. I was NOT PREPARED for what I saw! And neither was my best friend! As soon as this performance ended, my phone rang. I picked up and my best bud screamed "WAS THAT NOT AWESOME OR WHAT?!"
