White Stripes are Always Hanging Around My Neighborhoods
On Sunday, we had to decide between a JP benefit for this apparently excellent Cuban restaurant (El Oriental de Cuba) that was firebombed this past summer and seeing Buffalo Tom close out the Brookline 300 celebration. Since Buffalo Tom is a band I used to go see all the time when I lived in Boston back in the day, and Brookline (my old neighborhood) was having its 300th year anniversary, we decided to do the latter. Turns out, Jack and Meg ended up at the Milky Way Lounge (in JP, my neighborhood) to bowl a few games. So they are always in my neighborhoods (Midtown Memphis, Jamaica Plain in Boston), although not where I am… although Aaron swears saw the back of Jack White’s head at the P&H one night. The White Stripes are playing a few shows at the Opera House here, but honestly, the tickets were EXPENSIVE!!! I’m going to Black Keys instead. Only one rockin’ blues duo per season. I have a job, after all!
