The show was good, I really enjoyed it. Support act were good too. However, what spoilt it were people talking, laughing AND using their mobile phones to text, take photo's and video's during the gig. This activity is very distracting and did, to some extent, spoilt my enjoyment of the gig. We shouldn't be encouraged to upload photo's with this review!

weird but wonderful support from the fabulous stick-insect-in-a-suit that is Willy Moon paved the way for Jack White's brilliant performance.

From the moment he walked on stage Jack had the audience mesmerised. The all girl band rocked! The venue was perfect - all art deco & sparkly chandeliers. Jack performed a couple of white Stripes hits as well as his solo album. Very bluesy and some songs verging on country music which I've never liked but will make an exception in Jack's case. He can't do wrong, can he?

My best gig yet!

There are those few rarities in life; a Birthday wish coming true perhaps, actually seeing a pig fly.. And now, seeing the overly talented Jack White live can be added to that list. Starting the show with the most raw guitar noise ever made from a guitar, 'Dead Leaves and the Dirty Ground' comes into play infusing the entire crowd to sing along with the appreciation that it's the final song of the night, but Jack White's only just getting started. Shortly followed is the intro snippet to 'Cannon', before remembering that it's the 'Blunderbuss' album that's the staple for the tour 'Missing Pieces' merges into the previous White Stripes classics, getting as much praise as if it's already a stone-cold classic. For what is arguably the highlight of the concert are the very mellow songs back-to-back 'Love Interuption' and 'Hotel Yorba' that are sang with the passion and vibe that wouldn't feel out of place if Jack were performing them to a rowdy crowd whilst square dancing. We're further into the show now and we've already been delighted with a selection from Jack's musical catalogue, we've experienced his solo creations, songs that made us fall in love with him in the first place with White Stripes and his equally amazing supergroup of a band The Raconteurs, before Jack feels that we're not being spoilt enough out comes the rawest of White Stripes guitar solos in 'Screwdriver' that instantly paves the way for the most bluesy noise ever created in this Universe, 'Blue Blood Blues', a classic song mad famous by another band from Jack White's ever lasting band formations, 'The Dead Weather'. Approaching his encore, Jack and his all female backing-band The Peacocks deliver the noisiest song from the 'Blunderbuss' album, 'Sixteen Saltines', teasing at what is to follow.. The song that Jack turns into a giant singalong flowing through the room like a drunken karaoke moment, 'Steady, As She Goes'. Now the final moment has arrived, Jack and The Peacocks aren't ready to leave yet, we DON'T want them to leave yet but all great things must come to an end. Whilst clutching and tuning his guitar and clapping his feet on the stage, every single person has awaited this moment the entire evening, they hint at what is about to happen when Jack gives everyone the go-ahead to hum the hell out of what is to proceed, 'Seven Nation Army' sends the audience back into a trance all fixed upon Jack's magnificent presence, no-one possibly showing any signs to leave it all here, half fixated on singing the lyrics to the greatest guitar anthem of all time, half fixated on singing the guitar riff it's most famous for, 'Seven Nation Army', with it's potential to fill out any room and have everyone jumping, instead has everyone dancing along which furthers proves the magic behind the legend onstage and his ability to inflict different emotions and vibes through the slide of his guitar and the power of his voice, what a true vocal magician and rarity this man has become. Never has a man recieved such a generous and shockingly loud applause, he has most definitely earned it.

Doors opend at 18:30 but support act did not begin until abou 20:30, there was then a long gap between the support act and Jack White who finally came on stage around 21.30. By this time the crowd were getting frusrated as we were all so squashed together and had been that way for a long time. The venue was incredibly full and there was no room to move. Eventually I moved to the back of the venue as I needed some air, however it was impossible to see anything from there as there were no screens and the sound was dreadful. I had been really looking forward to this gig and have seen Jack White live both with the White Stripes and the Raconteurs both of which were awesome, this gig was very disappointing.

A really good night -

Liked Willy Moon very much.

LOVED the announcement on the use of cameras. Watch what's happening now *behind* the camera - a YT video never looks as good as the real thing.

JW excellent - energy and songs, band great and the drummer out of this world, couldn't take my eyes off him

But ... felt there was something lacking, a little flat perhaps ? I think it was Jack's vocals which were hard to hear when he used the central mike - but when he was at the piano and sang there, a huge difference and so much better.

Wish I'd seen him sooner, would love to see him again.

I have been fortunate to see Jack White all over the world several times over.

At Birmingham on Weds 7th 2012 you could see the old cheeky glint in his eyes ;-}}}

From the very first song you could tell he was with us. Jack can often come across as concentrated and so focused on being "The best" that it can seem to an onlooker as cold.

The GENIUS was back, smiling and laughing, whirling round the state like a mini tornado. I was so happy for him, to be free ! The shackles which a group dynamic can place on him were gone. He had full control of the flow of energy and POWER that is the trade mark of a man who plays with no set list. Conducting his fellow amigo's with a twirl of the finger and a point to the sky - MAGIC was being performed.

The gig was up there with the best of them. The collection of songs that Jack can whistle up at the click of a finger are the stuff of dreams for most artists.

Jack continues to take his musical journey through innovative and exciting pathways creating an atmosphere of aural delight. He has taken favourites from his career so far - through a variety of incarnations and collaborations - to produce versions that draw you in and may give insight into which direction he is next going to move.

His ensemble was crafted to perfection - with the talent evident throughout.

His choice of support act was superb too - providing a beautiful inroad to a wonderful evening of entertainment!

Jack - thank you.

No more to add than my previous review, other than Jack is still amazing and I'm so glad he chose the male band to play that night because now i've seen both of his bands accompany him! I was in the front row and got to see everything, I'll be sure to see him again on his next tour.

After 8 years of listening to this man and his various collaborations my expectations were higher than Bumgardener's space jump.

From the moment he came on to the moment he finished, he captivated the crowd with his mix of folk, country and rock music. Stage presence in abundence, not disappointing with his set list with a generous selection of songs from his solo album Blunderbuss, Dead Weather, Raconteers and of course The White Stripes.

If a music venue could be blown up with atmosphere and artistic talent then when he closed his set with 7 Nation Army he would have blown us all to bits.

Jack White give yourself a massive pat on the back, you're a fricken genius!!

He is back and better than ever! I had been waiting for a UK tour for ages and immediately got a ticket hoping for a good show. Man it was more than good, it was fun filled, very blue, jazzy and unbelievably brilliant!

The setlist was the best I had ever heard. The music was very moving and he played all the songs I knew very well, especially from the Blunderbuss album.

I want him to make more music and for him to come back to the UK because he was just my gig and album of the year!

I'm a massive Jack White fan and I've seen him as part of The White Stripes, The Raconteurs and the Dead Weather.

This time was by far the best, Jack is brilliant with every instrument he plays and you really got to see him show of his talents.

He played a range of music from all of his previous bands, as well as the new album. He even played some of my favourite really early White Stripes songs from albums De Stijl and The White Stripes EP which was really good to hear.

All in all a great show for uber-fans like myself, but could definitely be appreciated by anyone who's a fan of blues-rock in general!
