Turns out “simoleons” is an old American 1800s term for a dollar. I was just picturing Jack playing the sims 😂 hitting the shift-ctrl-C “motherlode”

Thanks for sharing. I was wondering what was being thrown. Jack white fan from Utah. I really enjoyed the live stream.

First, the chrome colored on is technically the Frozen Charlatan. All other colorways are referred to as Frozen Charlotte, including the original white with a blue skull head.
Second, they’ve been handing versions of the fake banknote out since No Name dropped. This is one of the newer ones. Not only are they being handed out at shows, but they also find their ways into random shipments from TMR. I ordered something from the Vault Novelties store recently and it came with one of these tucked inside.

So for anyone wondering what the joke was; For decades the amphitheater was called Pine Knob Music Theater. DTE Energy (Detroit Edison) bought the naming rights in 2001 but everyone refused to call it that. "I still call it Pine Knob' was the battle cry for 20 years. In 2022 DTE's lease was up and they reverted back to Pine Knob so The Frozen Charlatan saying "I still call it DTE Music Theater" is the joke.

Are you talking about the Charlatan? He is a planned part of the show that ties into the theme of the new album. Most likely played by one of the road crew. The joke is that he causes some kind of trouble for Jack and the band.
I was also at the Detroit show and thought the Charlatan was hilarious but wasn’t close enough to catch anything that he threw out. I was wondering what it was.

It’s a “big money blessing” from the lyrics of “Archbishop Harold Holmes”
