because you asked...
night one
one of the many reasons i love jack is because color and style is an integral part of his showmanship.
known for his red and white stripe days, this solo album/tour is all about blue, so of course i wore blue.
night two...
i bought this bootleg t shirt after the first night's concert for $5.
i would have purchased one inside b/c lord knows jack white needs the money, but the line was way too long.

janet
Wow, what a physique!
ReplyDeleteAre your shoulders/arms from yoga? You are a col cat!
Possibly even a cool cat.
ReplyDeleteHello Janet:
ReplyDeleteHow wonderfully elegant, 'cool' and 'hip', to use the idioms of the day, you look here. And no, we think that you should, most definitely, 'forget' to return the trousers wearing which you look so very, very good.
I love it! I'm a huge Bruce Springsteen fan and now that I'm "of a certain age" always wonder if I should leave my crazy, rock 'n' roll days behind but forget it! Your rock and look stylin' while doing it! Now, what will I wear to the Bruce concert in August...?
ReplyDeleteAnon: no never, that is your life's fire right there!
Deletewe need to have a what to wear to rock concert workshop! and i couldn't agree more with tabs, life fire is perfect!
DeleteYou look amazing in these outfits Janet. We could be Dancing Twins! I wish I was the age I think I am in my head (if you know what I mean!)but that won't stop me either!
ReplyDeleteUh oh, I don't know who Jack White is...god, I'm really out of it.
ReplyDeleteYou look great though.
I guess most Jack White enthusiasts know about this but for those who don't, here you go ...

KO
that's a good start. thanks ko!
DeleteYou always look fabulous. Love your retro pants - and the t-shirt of course! I saw the White Stripes a couple of times, once really early on when I couldn't believe that two people could make so much noise, and a free gig once Union Square, New York. Fantastic.
ReplyDeletei am beyond jealous that you saw them twice. it will always be a regret of mine that i never saw them live. omg, am i jealous!
Deletewho is this guy????? Does he have a hit song? Never heard of him.
ReplyDeletehaha, you kill me.
DeleteI'm sure Jack appreciated both outfits. I have never seen him in concert but would love to. I feel like this at Green Day concerts. I know I am way too old for it but I can't help myself.
ReplyDeletei can't either and i'm pretty happy about it too nita.
DeleteTwo great outfits Janet. Wish I found them :-)!!
ReplyDeleteHappy day,
Madelief x
i love your bootleg T and disco moves. but i honestly have to ask - what do you see in the man? i know, i know, our crushes are sometimes hard to explain to others. :)
ReplyDeletexo
it is hard to explain, it would take a long time! in a nutshell it is his music/lyrics/passion/dedication/talent. i know i left something off, i'll probably be back.
Deletehaha..you are so cute...both outfits are great! And wow...I love the idea of wearing the tank backwards...what a super idea! :)
ReplyDeleteLove both outfits and I think you are most probably an excellent dancer!
ReplyDeleteJanet you are very inspiring.
xo!
not really dani, i pretty much flail my limbs about and larry jumps up and down kinda like a popcorn popper. it's quite a sight.
DeleteJanet, you look amazing. I am so happy you had a great time!
ReplyDeleteGreat outfits - both look terrific on you!!
ReplyDeleteBarbara
Janet~
ReplyDeleteYour too funny! Love the new Jack t-shirt! I say let your freak flag fly lady!
April
You absolute rock chick! I love those pants on you and that bootleg tee (hope it doesn't shrink to Barbie doll size when you wash it,like they usually do!) I think you should keep those flares, I can't imagine anyone could look better in them than you. x
ReplyDeletePS When do we get to see you in your bikini?
And now the bikini...dare ya. JK, you do look fab!
ReplyDeleteThose outfits are great on you! I've only recently discovered your blog and have been enjoying it immensely. I thought I'd mention Jack White is part of the lineup at the Austin City Limits this year. If you've never been to Austin, maybe it's a good excuse to check it out...?
ReplyDeleteoh i know. i've been secretly plotting how to get to london, paris, colorado and austin!
DeleteI live 40 minutes from Austin...just saying..I have a couch. : )
Deleteyou may be sorry you offered! haha:)
Deletelove both outfits and you rock them both! Still insanely jealous that you saw him 2 nights in a row! You know I love Jack :) I also am crazy over Ray Lamontagne. No one sees what I see there either :)
ReplyDeletei totally understand michelle. you either get it or you don't.
DeleteJanet, You rock. Totally awesome! I hope I'm as cool as you one day.
ReplyDeleteKim
you look awesome! both nights!
ReplyDeleteYou crack me up! Both outfits rock!
ReplyDeleteYou look so thin and really fantastic! Love your hair too.
ReplyDeleteBetty
Rock it sister! He's coming to SF in August - woo hoo!
ReplyDeletethat's a festival right? you better go gurl.
DeleteHI Janet,
ReplyDeleteLove that you are still rocking and that you get up and dance your heart out...
I do the same when I go see Bruce Springsteen.
Love your toned arms!
i love bruce too!
DeleteNot if you had told me you flew to Paris with George Clooney, Tom Hardy and Brad Pitt ... then enjoyed a night of fun with Sting, Wayne Coyne and Tom Waits ... could I have been more jealous. You lucky gal! Jack worked with Wanda Jackson (who is from my hometown of OKC) and he also performed not far from me in Tulsa last March and I missed it. Simply devastated.
ReplyDeletei saw jack with wanda last year and it was a fantastic show. i know the feeling of devastation from missing him in concert.
Deletewhat did you drink.
ReplyDeletedo you drink & rock out.
can you multi-task?
like your duds.
pve
just water patricia. i'm not much of a multi-tasker:)
DeleteClassy and cool. Rock on, sister.
ReplyDeletehttp://oldmarriedlady.com
Okay, the Seinfeld comment is too funny!
ReplyDeleteSO rocker cool!!!! If we danced next to each other, we would thin the crowd down quite a bit. : ) Glad you had fun.
ReplyDeleteYou are rocking those first night trousers! Having fun is the best thing you can do.
ReplyDeleteHOT stuff! You are my idol, Janet. xo
ReplyDeletelike the Target shirt backwards...never thought of tha,
ReplyDeleteStill groov'in!!!
i was in a hurry to yoga and put it on backwards and didn't realize til i got there. i like it so much better backwards!
DeleteThose first trousers look so fab - love the outfit! As for getting the $5 tee, who can really blame you? Those lines are always so nightmarish and I suppose you paid to see Jack twice so you've made a significant contributions already? ;)
ReplyDeleteAs for dancing, you can't have done more damage than my dad does. He dances in a manner somewhat reminiscent of Peter Garrett from Midnight Oil. To understand the danger here, you must watch this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yd1IMmsOc6g. Both embarrassing and violent, haha.
funny hannah. i'm not quite that rigid in my movements but i really see a comparison!:)
Deleteohhhhhh... all this time I thought you had a crush on Jack White!!!!!!!!!!! :) Black/White- still don't get it;)!! :)
ReplyDeleteYou looked fabulous both nights!! I'm sure after spotting you in the audience that Jack himself is trying to find out who that hot babe was!!
xxj.
You are brilliant - Elaine on Seinfeld! Those Palazzo pants - is that what they are called? _ are perfection, sending this link to my designer friend to show her how flattering they are , I'm trying to persuade her to make these kind of trou.
ReplyDeleteJust back to say - shout out for you today on my blog for reminding me about the Elaine jerky dance!
ReplyDeleteSo adorable!! I love both outfits!!!!
ReplyDeleteI had to come back to admit that I also have no clue who Jack White is.
ReplyDeleteRock on, Janet!
ReplyDeleteOh My! I just adore Jack White. I'm so jel you went to his concert. somehow I don't think he'll be coming to South Africa anytime soon.
ReplyDeleteI want your Tee when you're done with it!
