Just hours ago, Jack White’s Dead Weather band played a teeny tiny show in a basement on Chrystie Street, and TONY was there. The show marks the release of the Dead Weather’s Horehound album and the band’s two nights at Terminal 5, starting tonight—and also the opening of a pop-up shop for Jack White’s Third Man label. Fulfilling pretty much all your White Stripes/Raconteurs/Dead Weather needs, the store stocks a ton of merch, so if you’re feeling a sudden urge to buy a “Meg” Lomo camera, a rare 12-inch or a button badge, get down there.
But fans started lining up outside the store starting at 6am today, to get into the show—a handful of folks even camped out last night to guarantee entrance. And what a show it was. After the jump, more photos of the band’s performance and of the Third Man store, a full recap, and a video of TV presenter Matt Pinfield—who was personally invited by Jack White to be a guest clerk at the store.
