You know you are thinking too much about The Black Keys when…you start dreaming about them.
I should mention I’ve had a few dreams before where I’ve met Dan and he has ignored me. I guess that can be explained as fan anxiety. I’m not sure how I explain this dream, however.
The dream I had last night went like this:
I’m waiting to see The Black Keys at a live concert. I’m standing back from the stage on the right. Pat comes onto the stage from behind the stage curtains. He sits down at his drum kit with the crowd going wild. He launches into a drum solo. The crowd are screaming with joy, recognising it as the song ‘Scarred’ [note: this song title doesn't exist in reality]. I stumble with my camera trying to get it to video mode since I realise Pat never does drum solos. As I’m fidgeting with the camera I realise someone in front is videoing on their camera and they are blocking my view. So bummed out. Then Dan comes out and the drum solo segues into Dan playing Michael Jackson’s ‘Billie Jean’ accompanied by Pat. As the song goes on Dan is cranking so hard the song morphs into Metallica’s ‘Enter Sandman’ until only Dan’s playing. The crowd is loving it, screaming with absolute joy. I’m still standing there amazed and fumbling with my camera unable to get it into video mode.
Hmmm.
Have you ever dreamt about The Black Keys? Is that what being a fan is all about?

i’ve never had a dream about them. i find it interesting in your dream that they didn’t play any of their own songs
I’ve had a few dreams about The Black Keys too!
In one of them I met Dan and Pat at some mall or something and in my dream Pat was asian! hahaa! It was hilarious!
In my other dream I was a hitchhiker and Dan picked me up. But he turned out to be a serial killer. It was craZy weird but also really funny!
