The Raconteurs returning to the stage this September

by Anne T. Donahue

We told you the world wasn’t going to end after the White Stripes broke up, and now we’ve got proof: after a two year performance hiatus, The Raconteurs are taking to the stage once more to prove that no matter how great of a job you think you have, Jack White‘s trumps it.

Scheduled to appear at the Michigan International Speedway in Brookyln, Michigan on September 17, the band will be part of a lineup that boasts Sheryl Crowe (okay?), The Romantics, Mitch Ryder and more, and while no announcement’s been made of further dates or even a follow-up album, we can (and will) use this performance to breathe new life into our hopes and dreams.
