The White Stripes release career bookend, starring Moorhead

The White Stripes played their final show nearly four years ago, on July 31, 2007 in Southaven, Mississippi, bidding adieu to a decade requited with rock and roll and giving every guitarist with furious intentions a little breathing room. Now, through his successful vinyl-centric label Third Man, Jack White is pressing that show and a couple other milestones to various forms of circularity. A final, official bookend to the Stripes' decade.
In addition to that final show pressed to vinyl, the package -- part of Third Man's quarterly subscription service, the Vault -- will also include a 7" of very early recordings and something that would be surprising if it weren't coming from the predictably left-of-field Jack White: a DVD of a show in Fargo/Moorhead at the now-demolished Ralph's Corner Bar back in 2000. Third Man's website says the package is meant to cross-sect the Stripes' career, and it seems like it just might.
You can find out everything you need to know about Third Man's subscription service, The Vault, here (it's the only way to get this stuff). And information about the cryptically-titled Vault Package #8 can be found here.
