Every day of this summer we go back to the same summer day somewhere in history

16 July 2026

On July 16, 2007, today 19 years ago, THE WHITE STRIPES entered the record books
by playing the shortest-ever live gig when they appeared at a Newfoundland venue
called George Street during a Canadian tour.

They played just a single note with a cymbal crash (no encore, I suppose) before
exiting the stage. The “concert” was recognized by the Guinness Book Of World
Records in 2009. Unfortunately, the book’s compilers dropped the category a year
later after being swamped by applications for similar record-breaking attempts.

I want more than one note (fantastic video).
