Peppermints

From Stripespedia

Peppermints, like the number three, are a common White Stripes motif:

  • "Meg loves peppermints and we were going to call ourselves The Peppermints. But since our last name was White, we decided on The White Stripes. [...] It revolved around this childish idea, and we thought it a good stage aesthetic to dress in the colors of the peppermint, so people would think like kids when they saw us, or at least remember who we were." - Jack White
  • Jack typically uses a peppermint-striped guitar cord
  • Meg regularly used peppermint-swirl resonant heads on her bass drum and rack tom
  • The art for the band's debut album, The White Stripes
  • The limited-edition 'Meg' and 'Jack' cameras came with peppermint-swirl winding knobs
