Given the success of Jack White's "side project" The Raconteurs there was some speculation that perhaps Jack wouldn't do further recordings with Meg White as the White Stripes. Stories circulating on the net now say otherwise. Reports have the Whites close to a new record deal.
Warner Brothers is reportedly close to signing the duo to a one record deal. No word on when the said project may commence but the deal could garner the Whites a $3-4 million dollar guarantee. Not a bad haul in today's market before selling a single disc. Although I have no doubt that if the Stripes can recapture their former magic they'll move some units.

i wonder if jack took the advance, it usually spells trouble taking an advance if you can't move huge units. (like britney spears numbers)..
if history is a guide.. then he'll make a new record for the cost of chicken feed and it'll be a groundbreaking smash album, and WB will extend the contract.
here's hoping he records another blues dominated rock album in the vein of all of his heroes.
hopefully this is true.. not a huge fan of the raconteurs.. i want my white stripes back
