"Who's jealous? Who's jealous? Who's jealous? Who's jealous of who?"

To say I'm excited about this show would be a huge understatement. Yes, I will be seeing Jack White again just a short 9 days later at the Virgin Mobile Free Fest, but seeing him in this smaller venue will be an awesome prelude. See you there?
