Answer: Alison Mosshart

The only way I could tell her face was mirrored was the fact that she has two moles exactly opposite of each other.

6. According to Jack White, where did the title "Sea of Cowards" come from?

I used the word 'criticizing', Jack used the phrase 'spitting venom'.

Answer: Dead Leaves and the Dirty Ground

Jack White wore Lawrence's black pants and black leather jacket, a long, black-haired wig, Lawrence's glasses, and played Lawrence's bass. Jack Lawrence wore White's red t-shirt and red jeans from The White Stripes, wore a medium length, black-haired wig, and played the piano and sang the lyrics to the song.

The switch in personas was in celebration of the release of the Third Man Records "Bizarro" versions of previously released Third Man Records material. The records had reversed picture sleeves and inverted color and lettering on the vinyl labels.

10. In the limited edition Triple Decker Record of the Dead Weather's single "Blue Blood Blues", there is a seven inch vinyl record of a previously un-released Dead Weather song entitled...

Answer: I Feel Strange

With only 300 copies that were distributed and the fact that it is a brand new invention, the Triple Decker Record is one of the most expensive items that Third Man Records has ever made. A 12 inch record ("Blue Blood Blues/No Hassle Night/I Just Want to Make Love to You (live)") with a seven inch ("I Feel Strange/Rolling in on a Burning Tire") hidden inside it.

The Triple Decker Record has been sold over eBay for up to $900.
