I’m on console and for some reason I have it unlocked
For the locals these two are playing Sacramento's Farm to Fork free festival . If you missed them they both were awesome at Bottlerock.

EDIT: I bought a new one on eBay! Thanks a ton!!!
Hi! Long time vault subscriber and TMR fan and not too long ago bought a snow globe with Meg’s drum kit and Jack’s airline guitar. It shattered today and I am absolutely devastated - I loved that thing!
Reached out to TMR to purchase a new one and they unfortunately are all out. Here’s a link: https://www.queenofsnowglobes.com/portfolio/white-stripes-custom-snow-globes/
Wondering if anyone here has an extra or would sell theirs. Otherwise it will be a search to replace it for the rest of my life.
Thought this was worth a try. Thank you so much!!!

Honestly, a lot of the hate directed toward her because she was a girl. And I thought by now as a species we weren't so childish by now. How wrong I was.
People can complain all day long about how she doesn’t have technical finesse (not unlike Ringo), but at the end of the day The White Stripes wouldn’t of been what they were without her. And I personally just love musicians that don’t have to be in the spotlight to be awesome.
Also much like Ringo she didn’t often sing but when she did it stood out to me and made the song feel special. I guess I really don’t have much more to say other than what’s your opinion? Is Meg or Ringo for that matter overrated/underrated. I’m curious to see your opinion on the matter.
So, we see a lot of people run into Jack every now and again - but has anyone ran into Meg since the White Stripes split?
Just curious as we dont hear anything from her nowadays...
An oft-parroted claim on music forums is that Meg White's drumming ability, or more specifically, her lack of drumming ability, is the ~secret sauce~ of the White Stripes' music. Her primitive style was very simple and the total opposite of flashy, letting the riffs/vocals more or less speak for themselves.
While I pretty much agree with this, I also haven't ever heard someone say that about another musician.
Lars Ulrich of Metallica is a good example. It's no secret that he's not a great drummer, and is far and away the worst musician in any iteration of the band. However, I think that in some cases (mostly on the first two albums, which happen to be my favorites) I think his drumming has the same appeal as Meg's. Take For Whom the Bell Tolls... IMO, if that simple, thumping beat and those entry-level drum fills were replaced by the technically superior drumming of, say, Gene Hoglan, the song wouldn't work as well.
In both of these cases, the musicians in question are being guided or influenced by other, more talented ones. Hence why I'm singling out individual musicians rather than whole bands. The appeal of a whole primitive band is totally different imo, although the Stripes probably fall into that category.
So, who are some other musicians whose lack of proficiency works in a band's favor?
(there's also stuff like the American Primitivist movement (think John Fahey) that's all about "un-learning" guitar but imo that's also a whole nother thing)
Looking for all that's listed. PayPal and local cash ready to go!
Let me know what you have. Open to all offers.
I like PC parts that I can build a theme around. So any GPU's or Mobo's that really stand out or are odd looking, hmu.
Neither were the best of their time. Both were the perfect fit for their band.
Local is SoCal.
Need only one of the motherboards (Aorus Master, Asus Crosshair VIII Hero WIFI, MSI Meg Ace) that has the original box and accessories, black corsair rgb 4x8 3600mhz, and corsair commander pro
Lian Li o11 is a long shot probably but I thought I'd see if anyone was selling
Comment before PM :)
