Jack White begins intimate NYC run at Irving Plaza, with daughter Scarlett on bass (videos, setlist)
Jack also had some words for fans who demand concerts be a certain length.

Jack White‘s No Name Tour is underway, supporting last year’s raw, White Stripesy album of the same name, and he landed in NYC on Monday night (2/10) to kick off an intimate three-night run–not quite as intimate as the one-off shows he played last year, but definitely intimate for an artist who’s headlined MSG.
Monday night’s show was the smallest of the three, at Irving Plaza, and it looked like a blast. Jack and his current four-piece band (bassist Dominic John Davis, keyboardist Bobby Emmett, and drummer Patrick Keeler) busted out a handful of No Name songs; White Stripes classics like “Dead Leaves and the Dirty Ground,” “Hotel Yorba,” “Ball and Biscuit,” and “Seven Nation Army,”; some blues standards; and more. He also brought out his daughter Scarlett to play bass on “Archbishop Harold Holmes.” We haven’t found the full setlist yet, but it looks like Jack’s been changing things up from night to night and also touching on The Raconteurs, The Dead Weather, and more.
As the tour started, Jack also responded on social media after “hearing a lot of chatter throughout the year of this glorious electric touring about how long our sets are ‘supposed to be’ on stage.” He wrote:
As if the length of a show determines how “good” it is. I know that we’re living in a current era where people like to say “so and so played for 3 hours last night!”, and brag about it the next day hahaha, I’ll let our fans know now that my mind has no intention of “impressing” y’all in that context. The Beatles and Ramones played 30 minute (ish) sets, and If I could, I would do the same at this moment in my performing life. That’s actually the kind of show I’d like to put on right now. But there becomes this chatter that the cost of a ticket “entitles” people to some kind of extra long show…uh…ok (hahaha) so I’m bridging the gap. I’m not sure y’all are knowing (or maybe remembering?) what a real rock or punk show is like though if you’re thinking that way, I think you’re talking about an arena laser light show with pyro, huge screens with premade videos, singers flying over the crowd, t shirt cannons, etc, that’s not the kind of shows we’re performing. I’ve seen a plethora of rock and roll gigs that lasted 45 minutes and blew my mind and inspired me beyond belief. Read the room, leave everyone exhausted and inspired (hopefully) and most of all wanting more, without needing 3 hours to do it. That’s like saying a film is supposed to be better cause they spent 300 trillion making it, well I’ve never seen that movie. Love to all of our fans, I see your faces every night and you can be assured I’ve never phoned it in in my life, whether its 20 minutes or 2 hours, I’m giving the room what the room is prompting me to do and share and that doesn’t mean if people cheer louder its going to be longer either! haha. There’s no setlist, and it’s not a marvel movie, or a Vegas residency, it’s rock and roll and it’s a living breathing organism. See you in the hall tonight friends, love you all so much and thank you for coming to these shows, standing in line and paying your hard earned money to help this train keep rolling. And the crew and the boys in the band are loving y’all as much as me, we are grateful, thank you.
Next up for Jack is Kings Theatre tonight (2/11) and Brooklyn Paramount on Wednesday (2/12). Check out some footage, photos by David James Swanson, and the partial setlist from last night, and the list of all remaining dates below (full setlist TBA).
Jack also released a No Name Live EP on streaming services today with live recordings from the various intimate shows he played last year. Check it out:
