Canada gets another special treat

The White Stripes performed a special show at a bowling alley in Canada at the weekend.

The duo are mixing up their North American tour with tiny shows in unusual venues and so far have played a mobile classroom and a moving city bus, both in Canada, and turned Tower Records Los Angeles into Icky Thump Records for a special show.

On Sunday they performed a short set at Eastview Bowling Alley in Saskatoon, with footage appearing online of the song ‘Let’s Build A Home’.

As previously reported, the band also performed an intimate show in London when they played for pensioners in Chelsea.
