The White Stripes to Stop Touring?

BY Dave SynyardPublished Dec 12, 2007

The White Stripes have hinted that they may never tour again. Recently Meg White’s health hasn’t been the greatest and she was diagnosed with acute anxiety around the same time they pulled out of their scheduled gigs earlier this year. Depending on how this affects Meg the band may never even play a live gig again, following in the footsteps of the Beatles and their studio-only routine.

"The Beatles did it. I'm joking, but if we didn't ever tour again it wouldn't matter to me," Jack told the Los Angeles Times. Jack also mentioned that he won’t be making the decision and will leave it up to band-mate Meg to make the move. "If something isn't working for you and it's detrimental to you, then you have to figure out a new way to attack it, a new way to look at it. I think that's what Meg's doing," added Jack.
