While we were watching Nashville’s own Jack White absolutely rock Bonnaroo, the singer was busy setting a few impressive records. First, and unsurprisingly, his brand new album, Lazaretto, debuted at number one on the Billboard charts, selling 138,000 copies (all the more impressive when you consider that his debut, Blunderbuss, sold that same amount two years ago, and…
