THE WHITE STRIPES- The first time I saw this band I was completely hooked. I think it was in 2000. I bought the SELF TITLED first record and was blown away. I photographed them right around the release of White Blood Cells. Of course the rest is History.. #whitestripes #jackwhite #megwhite @jackwhite @thirdmanrecords #thirdmanrecords
