As a follow-up to yesterday's news that The White Stripes now belong to you and me, here is a list of bands that timed their break up to the exact moment when they should break up (and death was not a factor) - and stayed broken up.
1. The Beatles
2. The White Stripes (TBD)
3. The Jam
4. Husker Du
And I wonder if The White Stripes planned yesterday's announcement to coincide with the 52nd anniversary of "the day the music died".
God bless Jack White.
