Jack White has attacked Foo Fighters and Rolling Stone magazine during a recent speech on stage - but don't call it a 'rant'. Listen to it below. 

During a gig at Fenway Park in Boston last night (Wednesday 17 September, 2014), Pitchfork reports that White picked a number of targets - starting with singers who don't use microphones. 

He then slammed Foo Fighters for having two guitarists "playing the same parts" to cover up for any mistakes they might make before mocking Rolling Stone as "brought to you by the Kardashian family".

Listing what he saw as typical Rolling Stone articles, he said "15 outfits that will blow your mind that Taylor Swift wore this month" and "12 reasons Rolling Stone won’t put a black and white cover on the cover of their magazine unless you’re dead."

Following his tirade, White ended with: "OK, I'm officially supposed to stop now, because this is becoming a Kanye West-esque rant. Because apparently, nowadays, you aren't allowed to speak to your own fans about anything, lest it be a rant.

"So forget ISIS, forget the war in the Middle East, forget any problems at home, forget gay marriage, forget everything you ever thought about everything. This not a rant. This is just me saying, HELLO CLEVELAND!"
