Jack White was interviewed recently by Dan Rather for the show The Big Interview. In the episode, which airs tomorrow night, White discussed his difficult decision to leave Detroit.
He told Rather, "it always felt like my home. Detroit, I always imagined I was going to be there my whole life. But the Rust Belt area...those are really cynical towns. When you’re in that kind of cynical environment, it’s hard for people to understand how to relate, and it was definitely hard for me to understand how to relate back to everybody, because I didn’t really know what else I could do for them."
Watch a short clip from the interview below and watch the episode with White tomorrow (September 16th) at 8PM on AXS TV. As you'll see in the second interview clip below, Rather reveals that came away from the interview thinking White may be one of the most interesting people he's ever met.
