White Stripes anecdote

A friend of mine went to last night's show at the Opera House and pointed out the abundance of underage kids there with their parents. Apparently entire sections of the mezzanine were sitting during the first part of the show, except for one teenage kid wearing a WS shirt and going nuts. Jack noticed, and between songs called the kid out and told him he rocked, which got the rest of the crowd around the kid standing.

Then a few songs later, Jack noticed everyone was standing and yelled to him again - "Look what you did! Roadies - get that kid a copy of everything we're selling tonight!" A few minutes later, a roadie showed up with an armload of stuff for the kid.

Goes to show you, sometimes the one person standing in a crowd is rewarded with more than verbal abuse and projectiles tossed from the people behind him.

That's a good story. I guess one person can make a difference.
