    One of my favorite bands ever, and I never got to see them live.

    Life throws some pretty sharp curveballs. But you gotta think long-term when times are tough. The greatest things in life bring many bands back together: Money and hubris.

    I just came here to post this. I am incredibly pissed off I never got to see them live! I LOVE the Stripes, it's Jack's best work. The RACONTEURS ARE NOT THE SAME AND NEITHER ARE THE DEAD WEATHER!!!

    Me too. I only bought tickets for their day and was only going to see them. Sold the ticket when I found out.

    Now I am still a big fan of the Raconteurs. Their last album was awesome. Dead Weather, not so much.

    God this really really sucks. And all signs seemed to point towards them coming back, or at least I thought. Not seeing them will always be a huge regret

    Raconteurs - Best band of this millennium

    Maybe because of Brenden Benson, maybe because of the Greenehorns rythmn section, maybe because Jack needs tempering in a band situation.

    Lol so it's absolutely because of artistic differences or lack of wanting to continue.

    i don't know, i think a lot of the white stripes output had too much of a demo feel, but that was by design. when they got it right, it was the unbridled energy that made them awesome. raconteurs are a little too tame for me. i still want jack to explode. we'll see what the future holds, he's got a lot of ability.

    It was all downhill after Seven Nation Army, so I'm not that bummed out over this.
