sQueeGee sits down with The Black Keys at Dan Auerbach's Easy Eye Sound in Nashville to discuss the release of their new album 'Let's Rock' and their upcoming tour.
Would be a dream to just meet these guys and just talk to them about music and just everything! I would of spent the whole day going through Dan and Pat's studio just talking to them about gear and every piece of art and guitar that they had there! Love it! Good interview, good to see that they are still humble and back on the road and ready to rock!
Tacoma!!! Wish i had backstage passes! I play guitar and basically started because of them, soo i feel it! Wonder if they eould like my guitar playing/original songs.....hhhmmmmmm!👍🎸
I first started listening to you guys when I found your tune on a "not that same old blues crap CD. Never stopped listening to you guys. You guys helped me through alot of rough days and nights. Keep kicking ass. I'll keep on supporting ya.
I'm not one of those people who cry "sell outs" because their sound has changed over the years. I understand that that artists change and grow and explore. But I really do miss the sound of Carney's drums the way his drums sounded on Magic Potion.
They pumped out some albums that were not very good after brothers. This new one is dope though. Plus, they put out soooo many killer albums before brothers that, if they retired now, would put them in the category of one of the best rock bands ever imo
People do understand bands always have 50 bucks a gig b4 word gets out past barneys bar on hope Street. T ones that dont keep t dream cooking, well we dont know em thats for sure.
They seemed kind of hard to talk to at the moment.. Like he might not of been able to say anything right.. But man.. "Would you say it is your career?" What a dumb question..
One major difference for them as a band is that they were always playing their own stuff. They didn't have to go through burning with cover bands, switching players and dealing with flakes that you couldn't stand living with on the road playing songs that weren't your's and wondering at some point how that would ever grow past the idea that you play covers. Because you can't write and record songs and mix them in thinking one day you might become known for your songs, your original sound. You must start with that first and never stray from it . They got tired of traveling, and all that comes with that down time on the road not what they were doing on stage.
To everyone giving the interviewer so much grief you should stop to realize this was one of their last interviews on a media day. They've been having this convo all day. Not his fault.
This guys research team sucks. He needed better questions, better over all material. He seems to try to be a mix of funny and assume a lot of things about them and they just weren’t having.
"Let's Rock" is muff cabbage. I've loved the black keys for over a decade now and they got me so hyped only to let me down with this album. I really let myself believe it was going to sound like 2001-2009/10 black keys. It's really just like Turn Blues slightly edgier brother. It's just not that good. Let the hate comments reign in from people who thought brothers was their first album...
The Black Keys are so refreshingly normal. They were so bored with the interviewer.
1029 the Buzz is such a shit station in Nashville.
This guy is so disconnected from the interview hes not even listening to them lol
I love how after 18 years these guys are still normal guys, not really changed by fame, telling regular stories, and that's what I love about them

@@bluestogreen1693 I get you too bud- they made me think differently about music lol! Would be a dream for me too man!
Love these dudes, been following them for years now.

I’m a new Black Keys fan! Love you guys!
These guys are great. My local record store has some Black Keys posters up now, and when I saw that it made my day.
love their almost-matching outfits 😆
Thank you for “retiring” & no longer mowing yards. Best band out there!
Man you can really tell Dan and Pat were incredibly bored by this interviewer. No wonder they don’t do press often.
Yea but that's pretty much how they've been their whole careers. They are like that in every interview lol
i think one of them was sleeping.
I suspect they were pissed off at the silly interviewer.
@@Joemommas
No, they're not. They're smart and funny. This is not smart and funny. This is driven into the ground by the interviewer.
@@Joemommas nah, they were gold on joe Rogan
Dan's just like "imma ride this one out, pat's got this"!😂
I think this interview was alright, I enjoyed it!
Terrible interviewer. Likes his own voice too much.Thank goodness these re very intelligent and saved the interview.
"We were born covered in rust" 🤣🤣🤣
that's cool
They’ve answered these questions a hundred times already and you can tell this is why they took a break lol
Dan so wants this interview to end!
I love these fellers
THATS THE MAGIC POTION SG IN THE BACKGROUND!
YESSSSSSSSSSS
Ibanez Lawsuit copy from the 70’s I believe
Got drunker than Cooter Brown one night with Patrick at Ms. Kelli's. One of the coolest dudes I've ever met.

Patrick looks like the perfect mix of John Linnell and John Flansburgh. It's so wild.
Great interview!
I knew Glen Schwartz. Hooples was awesome
Short question long answear thats the way to do it
These interviews are going to remind them of everything they hate about touring, and they'll call it quits again ha.
People do understand bands always have 50 bucks a gig b4 word gets out past barneys bar on hope Street. T ones that dont keep t dream cooking, well we dont know em thats for sure.
They look the same height sitting down, shoulders and head are very similar height. Pat must just have fucking huge legs
This interviewer makes me bite my tongue.
Come back to Akron and play a show
this is painful
Is it just me or does Pat look like he wants to take "red" out? I'm not talking about a beer.....
Fix your mix interviewer, so goddamn quiet

No, regardless of that the interviewer is absolute trash.
@@DrVonNostrand Who are your favorite interviewers?
@@SigmaMale558 Nardwuar.
Also, Graham Norton is a great interviewer as well.
@@DrVonNostrand ah viral internet interviewers. Got it.
LOL this is both great and fucking horrible.... I don’t think this guy actually prepared before this interview
the interviewer ruined this.... is this a career??
.....in a joe walsh song............LOLOLOLOLOLOL
They are bored as hell and so are we.
This guys research team sucks. He needed better questions, better over all material. He seems to try to be a mix of funny and assume a lot of things about them and they just weren’t having.
This interviewer is not it aha
What a lazy interview. The keys deserve better than that guy.
