Imagine getting to see the Black Keys in such an intimate venue and watching it behind a phone screen...

[@iamryanallen]

With professional cameras all around you, capturing you on your cell phone for all eternity…😂

[@jackboyle8655]

for real so dumb

[@tulipaninelgiardino]

There's no reason to make video all the time when you know that u gonna have a professional live capture from a tv program cameras. Even if it wasn't, just stay there with heart and soul and enjoy the live with your eyes and ears!

[@kyzor-sosay6087]

Exactly,who they gonna show the video to, I wouldn’t be interested in watching on their phone.

[@joetraw2110]

Seriously! I promise you, nobody will ever want to watch the crappy cell phone video you took.

[@trelvis14]

I mean, just take a few pics and short clips even.. spending 5% of the time is ok.. 100% of the time is super weird.

[@fredg.sanford2951]

If I can capture my own experience through my lens it's a memory that lasts longer than someones professional vision as good as may be. I'm totally immersed in the performance, only glancing at the phone to make sure it's aimed. Making your own stuff is fun!🙂

Dan's guitar choices: Supro Martinique Deluxe (Howlin' For You); Fender Jazzmaster (Beautiful People); Ibanez SG Custom (Gold On The Ceiling); back to the Jazzmaster (This is Nowhere); still with the Jazzmaster (On The Game); Guild S-200 Thunderbird (Lonely Boy).

[@stephenmahlstedt8533]

For those of you that have the opportunity see an amazing band live in an intimate setting like this, if you're watching the show through your phone, I almost feel sorry for you. If you can't experience something special without documenting it and sharing it on social media, then you aren't truly present for the experience and are missing out.

If you have the chance to see them live do take it you won't regret it.

[@LucaBellesi]

WIll never forget when i saw them in 2006 at a local bar in a small town called Cairns in tropical north QLD, Australia. There must have been 40 people there

[@Steve_643]

I was just thinking about the time I saw them in 2006 at free concert sponsored by Camel Cigarettes in Detroit at a venue called the Majestic Theater. There couldn’t have been more than 300 people there. They’ve come far

[@SIMONMOUSE]

Better live than in the studio

[@rolandomagadaleno777]

That slide guitar on "Howlin For You" sounds really good.

[@KingEdwardMMVIII]

Still my favorite album from them.

[@joenormanmusic]

These guys play with so much swagger; it's unrivaled these days. Glad to see a return to form on the new album with some excellent Black Keys spice and spunk.

[@Vortexafternoon]

They remind me of Clutch in that regard.

Wow what a great performance! Love how the new songs are sounding live. “On the Game” sounded incredible and Dan’s slide playing is always so tasty🤌

It's crazy how much feel they put on their old songs... they are clearly dragging/rushing intentionally and yet they're still perfectly in sync... The amount of work this takes, just wow!

[@rolandomagadaleno777]

"Beautiful People (Stay High)" sounds like it was specifically made for a fast food commercial lol

[@benedekgabor.]

… and if you play it on 2x speed then it’s like a car commercial.

[@jhiramboggs]

Imagine if a band with a bunch of hits, had the balls to play an all new set from their most current record. That would be really crazy.

[@kenny_dlc]

As someone who went to their Turn Blue and Dropout Boogie concerts, I was hella disappointed when they only played THREE songs from their respective new albums. They played great, but I’m tired of hearing the hits. They have so many awesome deep cuts! I can understand if they don’t play the ones with Beck or the rappers, but at least Please Me, Fever Tree, etc. has to be up there for consideration.

[@Needawholepailofwater]

Yep they are in a tiny venue and still play their radio hits with 6 frickin people on stage! I don’t think I’ll ever see them live again unfortunately

[@shawnmcmahon3042]

@@Needawholepailofwaterwell yea a big percentage of their hits aren’t even originals. Covers from old blues artists or largely ‘sampled’ from them

[@Needawholepailofwater]

@@shawnmcmahon3042 similar to a 3 piece band that went by the name “Led Zeppelin.” Sometimes the sound that made the band great is worth sticking to.

[@Needawholepailofwater]

@@shawnmcmahon3042you could say the same about Led Zeppelin, but they never sold out to the point of playing the hits only. I’ve seen Black Keys a bunch but Turn Blue tour will be my last. The album was great but they would rather sell out arenas than show their true roots. I was stoked on Delta Kream, until I saw the set lists for the tour 😐

Cuando estaba aprendiendo a tocar la batería un amigo me recomendó seguir las bases rítmicas de DJ Shadows, negado por qué no me gustaba que le diera peso al hip-hop a regañadientes empece a practicar con su música y sorpresa!. Ahora me encanta su música, aprendí mucho de llevar el tiempo, cambiar de tiempo. Pero sobre todo a partir de escucharlo encontré buena música de batería que no era rock y eso lo agradezco mucho
