Watched them tear it up (my first BK show), then walked around the back of the building and they walked out. Dan was eating something and Pat was standing there. Just said hi, love the music, keep it up, you know. Then got a picture with Dan...cool guys. Second time: They played an in-store set at Grimey's Record Store in Nashville (where I live). Afterwards they just hung around the store, but no one seemed to want to talk to them...so I got a PatStick (which was destroyed only from 5 songs) and had him sign it, said thanks, then saw Dan in the back by the vinyls listening to some stuff. Me and my brother talked to him for a while about what music he likes, guitar preferences...he recommended some weird record to us...Greg Sahm or something like that. I don't know where Dan gets his influences because they're so obscure. Anyway, that's about it....record shopping with Dan was definitely awesome. stackshotbilly on "To those who have met The Black Keys" http://theblackkeysfanlounge.com/forum/topic/to-those-who-have-met-the-black-keys#post-1271 Wed, 10 Mar 2010 15:17:13 +0000 stackshotbilly 1271@http://theblackkeysfanlounge.com/forum/ Friday - November 24th 2006 - The Vic Theatre - Chicago. I arrived early because I was meeting some friends for drinks before the show. As I approached the Vic, I noticed Pat hanging out in front having a smoke. I just walked up to him and started talking and he made conversation with me as if he were as interested in what I had to say. He was truly one of the nicest people that I have ever met and someone that I would want to know even if he wasn't the greatest drummer in the greatest band of the 21st Century. I met Pat and Dan a few times since and they are always cool. They truly appreciate their fans and it shows in every way. From the music to the social interaction, The Black Keys never disappoint and always treat their fans like Brothers. phillienelson on "To those who have met The Black Keys" http://theblackkeysfanlounge.com/forum/topic/to-those-who-have-met-the-black-keys#post-1270 Wed, 10 Mar 2010 12:53:44 +0000 phillienelson 1270@http://theblackkeysfanlounge.com/forum/ 2005 at the Lime Spider in Akron, OH for the Square Records Birthday Bash: Pat was walking around before their set and I said "Hey, I'm really pumped to see you guys live. You're my favorite band!" He was just like "Okay, cool." Then he proceeded to tear shit up! After the show Dan was putting his gear away and I approached the front of the stage and said "Your Jerry Donahue is bad ass! I've been looking for a Tele with a Bigsby for a while but can't find anything." Dan's response was epic: "Just put one on yourself. That's what I did. If you fuck it up no big deal." jmjohnson40 on ""Brothers" out May 18" http://theblackkeysfanlounge.com/forum/topic/brothers-out-may-18/page/3#post-1269 Wed, 10 Mar 2010 08:59:43 +0000 jmjohnson40 1269@http://theblackkeysfanlounge.com/forum/ I also dig the cover...almost all of the time.

Some serious shredding of the guitar on them! Parker Griggs has no doubt mastered the wah. He smacks it, kicks it in the corner, and makes it his bitch. Interesting that he also plays the drums on both cd's. You can definitely feel the Blue Cheer influence. And i also detect some Iron Butterfly. I'm especially stoked now to see them April 18th at the Beachland. <img src="http://theblackkeysfanlounge.com/forum/my-plugins/bb-smilies/default/icon_mrgreen.gif" title=":mrgreen:" class="bb_smilies" /> dusty reeds on "New Hacienda album available NOW!" http://theblackkeysfanlounge.com/forum/topic/new-hacienda-album-available-now#post-1258 Tue, 09 Mar 2010 05:37:52 +0000 dusty reeds 1258@http://theblackkeysfanlounge.com/forum/ SWEET! <img src="http://theblackkeysfanlounge.com/forum/my-plugins/bb-smilies/default/icon_mrgreen.gif" title=":mrgreen:" class="bb_smilies" /> I noticed on their site that they had canceled a number of tour dates recently, that was odd to me.

He identifies an album being released in April, which must be May's release,"Brothers", a second Blakroc album, which is already half way recorded, and then two more Black Keys albums for the remainder of 2010, one of which was recorded this past January. I almost lost it after read this article. Does anyone have any information on the rest of these proposed albums? We obviously know about "Brothers", but not much regarding the two other Black Keys albums and second Blakroc project. Where were they recording in January? What about the third 2010 Black Key's album? It would be great to hear any news on this subject. The specific question and answer I'm referring to and the link for the rest of the wesbite are posted below. Thanks! URB: Since you played the role of the producer on this project, have there been any discussions about you guys working with any of these artists on any of their other projects? Carney: Not yet, but if we were interested in the project, we would. We just finished the next Black Keys project, and we are working on the next BlakRoc project (we are half way done), and in January we are going into the studio to work on another Black Keys record because we are half way through with another Black Keys record. Our plan is by the time the next Black Keys record comes out in April we will have two more Black Keys records finished and another BlakRoc record finished. Right now, the way we feel right now, it’s the time, we have resources: let’s make as much music as possible while people still give a shit. We waited two years between the last couple of records, so we are at the point where we are like Why wait two years between records? In the early ’60s, ’70s like Led Zeppelin, Jimi Hendrix, like every band, would release a record, every eight months. That’s why Jimi has like four official records and twenty strange bootlegs. <a href="http://www.urb.com/2009/12/09/patrick-carney-blakroc-is-the-new-rb/" rel="nofollow">http://www.urb.com/2009/12/09/patrick-carney-blakroc-is-the-new-rb/</a> mike on "cool YouTube The Black Keys tabs" http://theblackkeysfanlounge.com/forum/topic/cool-youtube-the-black-keys-tabs#post-1249 Mon, 08 Mar 2010 18:10:22 +0000 mike 1249@http://theblackkeysfanlounge.com/forum/ thank you for posting this! tbkmagic on "cool YouTube The Black Keys tabs" http://theblackkeysfanlounge.com/forum/topic/cool-youtube-the-black-keys-tabs#post-1248 Mon, 08 Mar 2010 18:02:10 +0000 tbkmagic 1248@http://theblackkeysfanlounge.com/forum/ Thats the best i've seen for it! thanks brucini!
