Jack White helped his hometown NFL team the Detroit Lions celebrate Thanksgiving by performing the halftime show of their afternoon home game against the Green Bay Packers. He opened with “That’s How I’m Feeling” off his latest solo album No Name and then played the White Stripes classic “Hello Operator,” during which he teased “‘Till I Collapse” by fellow Detroit hero Eminem (who executive produced the show) and then he brought out Em himself to do a medley/mashup of the two songs. Finally, Jack closed out with his eternal sports anthem “Seven Nation Army” and had the crowd audibly singing the riff. Watch his full performance below.
This was Jack’s second nationally televised appearance this month. He recently was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame as a member of The White Stripes and gave a badass induction speech.
UPDATE: The audio of the performance is now also on all major streaming platforms.
