According to multiple sources, The White Stripes are strongly rumoured to be performing at Worthy Farm this year along with Bruce Springsteen, Franz Ferdinand and...erm....Lily Allen amongst others. Q magazine and eFestivals have this information upon their website. Until further official statement from the band or their representative, please take this information with a grain of salt !
Peace out !

The White Stripes for sunday because I would love a YYY's>The White Stripes scenario. I'm sure however it would be a co-headlining on sat deal, and they would bump down Thievery Corp.

Agreed, i'm still sour about the PIT tickets I had for both LA and SD shows back in September 2007. I chose the White Stripes LA show over the Arcade Fire show, fucking Meg you bitch.

L.A. was floor in an arena, come on, not that ridiculous. Berkeley Greek wouldve been the epic one.

Embarcadero!!! as it was originally scheduled before they moved it to coors would have been the epic one.

When TWS cancelled they played at the same time as Muse.

I don't think they will be playing anywhere for a long while after that Conan performance last week. You could tell they didn't want to play and were only doing a favor to Conan. At least that is the vibe I got from it.

I'd be down if they came back around again. I considered going back at the Forum dates, and I'm glad I didn't buy tickets...

not really. i was there and i can tell that the only things that sucked that day were the weak volume and muse fans.

I feel like this when it comes to the raconteurs.
I've never seen the White Stripes live though.

I hope and pray they are playing Coachella on Saturday so I can actually see them again, which will not happen if they tour again and their LA date is at the shithole Forum.

my girlfriend saw the White Stripes open for Weezer at Spaceland in 99.
AAM!!!

Every time I go to the Glasshouse I'm reminded of the fact that they played there and I will never get to see them in such a tiny venue..or probably even in Mid sized venue.

Is this for real? If so, nice grab by Glasto, wish it was next year when I'll be there. :(
But this gives me even more Lolla hope.

I'm kinda hoping it's not true. Part of me hopes it is too. But it just seems to decrease the chances of them showing up at Coachella. On the other hand, any signs of life would be great, since we aren't all completely sure that this band will be touring in 2009 yet. And it also would probably increase their chances of showing up to Lollapalooza, which would get me to go for sure, which would be good.
But I really need them on Saturday of Coachella. It would really help that whole weekend exponentially.
