The saddest day in music history.

My most favorite band of all time, The White Stripes, officially broke up on this day of February 2, 2011.

"The White Stripes do not belong to Meg and Jack anymore. The White Stripes belong to you now and you can do with it whatever you want. The beauty of art and music is that it can last forever if people want it to. Thank you for sharing this experience. Your involvment will never be lost on us and we are truly grateful.

Sincerely,
Meg and Jack White
The White Stripes
"

The White Stripes' music will always belong to me; It is a great loss to the musical community, but they are right in wanting to preserve the beauty of the band. Long live Jack and Meg, and keep on bettering Nashville, Mr. White.
