Radio 1: White Stripes Wednesday on the BBC
- Artists:
- The White Stripes »
Jack and Meg White will take Radio 1 hostage this week, as the station stuffs some 12m ears full of 'White Stripes Wednesday'.
Things will begin, as they always do, with Radio 1's "doyenne of new music" Jo Whiley as she presents an "exclusive stripped down session" from the band in the Live Lounge. The band will chat Icky Thump and life in general before they go on to perform for Edith Bowman and then head over to Maida Vale with Zane Lowe.
The doyenne will round off the day, presenting an In Live Music We Trust White Stripes Special which will send archive recordings and interviews out over the airwaves.
Sound good? No? Then better de-fuse the workplace radio first thing Wednesday morning. Otherwise it'll be one long shift.

Stripped down?!
How can you get more stripped down than a drum and guitar?!
Argh radio 1!
Or Jack.
That would be interesting.
Stripped down must mean
that Jo Whiley only gushes about how great and awe inspiring the White Stripes are after every other song.
I liked what
Simon Amstell said on buzzcocks when he named all the main radio 1 dj's and said 'it's just not good enough'. Also Jo Whiley advert for the new music programme is terrible those guys were having a great time in the pub before she turned up- and does she have to be so boring
