Next up in my White Stripes weekend:
- Get Behind Me Satan
- Icky Thump
- Live at The Gold Dollar (1999)
The live album is from an early Detroit show. It’s rough, messy, raw and still immensely exciting. They were absolute killers live.

I’m gonna be banging on a bit about ovarian cancer symptoms again, but this is important. Here’s a Facebook post from Target Ovarian Cancer about how similar the symptoms are to IBS. This was my experience this summer.
