Jack White has been reportedly taken away to hospital after a fit of convulsions while playing in London.
This concerning conclusion to the show was just one aspect of a secret show hosted by a collaboration between the renowned guitarist and the Punchdrunk Theatre Group.
A link appeared on Jack White’s Facebook page earlier this week which directed fans to a fake medical company called Vescovo & Company. Those who submitted their details for a contagious disease screening were invited to an out-of-hours appointment at the Vescovo Clinic where they were, bizarrely enough, changed in to medical gowns and subjected to a series of treatments in a maze of medical rooms. The fans were herded into a smoke filled room where White and his band performed a 30-minute set featuring tracks from his new album, 'Lazaretto' - named after quarantine stations that were used for sailors.
White “recovered" from this mystery illness and was able to play a massive two-hour set on Zane Lowe’s BBC Radio 1 show mere hours later.
A publicity stunt perhaps? Let us know what you think below?
