the general population of girls don’t like the black keys (from my experiences) probably for the same reasons listed, the fact that they are blues based actually turns a lot of people off automatically. but the chicks on this sight who like them are cool! i wish i knew some of them.

hah… this is the best read I have looked overact in awhile… There are plenty of female fans that go…. maybe not its overpopulated, but plenty enough.. I mean I hope that women are not refraining from the shows because of dan and pats looks, for their sake and forces mine…. cause me and pat are like twins…. no lie i get mistakin for him quite abit.. plus thats just superficial to base your opinion on looks.

Hold up.
I’m a female fan, and whether or not the Keys have more female fans, to suggest that girls don’t like Pat and Dan because they don’t dress like the guys on the cover of gossip magazines, and don’t dance around on stage is complete bollocks! I love their look- everything about them, from Dan’s ever-changing beard to their un-caring dress sense, it’s what makes them, them.
The Keys have girl fans- and this site is proof! Kings of Leon have got nothing on the Black Keys!

Besides both Pat and Dan aren’t both still married, are they? lol.

Yes, that was sarcasm. Hold your fire.

I don’t know why female fans aren’t at The Black Keys shows, but this woman is addicted to their music (and all other ventures by the members of The Black Keys discovered thus far). I don’t regularly attend large-venue concerts but I was truly devastated when I learned only the night before that The Black Keys were playing at Moffat Field in nearby San Jose earlier this year. I would have called in sick to work to see them, had I learned in time to arrange it.

Additionally, I’m not only a female fan, I’m a very feminine female fan. I’ve introduced my best friend and fellow ultra-feminine rock fan to The Black Keys and while they haven’t replaced Jimi Hendrix as her favorite musicians, she still holds them in high esteem. “Girliness” (to use the vernacular) aside, my first musical obsession was with Led Zeppelin at age 13 (in the 1990s, not their heyday of the 1970s). So the generalization that women don’t like heavy thumping blues or power chords is moot, in my case at least.

I don’t care for long hair or shaggy beards on the men I date, but I have no expectation of dating neither Dan nor Pat and am not the least bit disturbed by their hirsute styles. I care more about how they sound than how they look. Knowing that Dan and Pat are married only raises them personally in my estimation, though I do wonder how they manage living together AND working together.

I love TBK! (and i am also a girl) way into the full beard- and the solo shows will only attract me more because of -well, the music of course- and the fact that the fast five have equally great beards.
AND… they are and will continue to be my favorite band- the music is amazing and it truly is the sexiest music a guy could play.
Any girl who disagrees is just eating what MTV is feeding her.

Um, how does one get wind that shows are only attended by dudes? [This is the first time I've ever heard of this, other than the whole boy band concert where only teenage kids who are girls attend--but this is a given, in any case.] And if so, wouldn’t the dudettes want to attend these gigs, especially since there will be dudes that like the same band that they do? Or I guess, not, because they’ll be drunk. haha.

In any case, I find this interesting. I am somewhat generalizing, I must admit, but at the same time, just because Dan and Pat aren’t necessarily beardless or single or w/e, does not mean that girls will not go see them. Not everyone is shallow in this world. And not everyone likes a bloody band based on the looks of its members.
