Jack White at neighborhood bbq

Jack White lives in Nashville these days and over the weekend attended his block’s annual neighborhood potluck BBQ. Thing is, his neighbors had no idea he’s a Grammy-winning musician. Here’s the story from Jedidiah Jenkins who posted the above photo on instagram which was sent to him by his mom:

My mom helps put on a neighborhood potluck in front of my childhood home. Our little dead-end street is populated primarily with older and quiet people. The houses are modest and suburban. My neighborhood has been doing this potluck for over a decade. At the bottom of our street, there is a large gated historic home shrouded in trees. We’ve never really spotted that neighbor. But we have from time to time heard guitar coming from the garage.

This year, without warning, the occupant decided to come mingle with the neighbors. Of course they had no idea who he was. “Jack White, nice to meet you.” He apologized for traveling so much and missing out over the years.

Wonder if Jack brought his chunky guacamole?
