[Teutonic1250]

1:20 kid with the slipknot shirt needs to get out

[DiegoLink26]

So perfect!

[DJpookid]

Funny thing about this concert; It was free because it was an In-store performance.

[0Gudmandsen0]

To fucking manly to use a pick or even fucking shave.

[kspocover]

Anyone know which fuzz pedal gets closest to this sound?

[NiiickMuse]

No one there deserved that greatness.

[brycew2]

Total squares watchin this awesomeness. I would be spazin out!

[triple5chops]

Would like to stomp the gum chewers ass, how could you stand there and not get into jams like these!!!

[jmay054]

[FlammyMcFlammington]

@rabclotheslinesaga

LOL, yah I have been strongly considering that. I just need to get guitar. But you'd be amazed what some people can do with music translations

[cudi1is3god]

it sounds like he's playing 3 different guitar parts at once...fucking badass.

[sambone5407]

Someone must be holding a gun on them....

[MrMORG969]

After a long day of work i love to roll a rillo and jam this shit

[bassminusb]

That's a sweet Gibson! Sounds like a million bucks!

[TKAA64]

@bassminusb not a gibson its an ibanez lawsuit copy

[lemonyellow7]

@TKAA64 man! no - say it ain't so!

[Shrapnelpuppet]

My favorite song by them... ever

[ickystone]

from 2:19 on its just pure, raw awesome fcking blues

[FredericktheGreat89]

i was there, and i danced and clapped thank you, i'd like to mention this shop is tiny and there wasn't alot of room to just bust a move, but that's ok, cause i was there and you wern't!!

[blkisbeautiful09x]

this makes me feel ooey gooey on the inside ... yum

[jordanwe]

ive never heard drums sound so good

[FlandriaKid]

blues will always be as long Dan Auerbach and Patrick Carney are alive

[waitzsauce]

not even using a pick...

he takes a different guitar to bed every night i bed

slut

[3dthinker]

his voice is like a combination of Fergy and Jesus

[Wolfanoz]

The Ice Cube Predator album. Classic! Love this band as well.  Just amazing.

[HannesGlans]

Who filmed this? Where can I get more footage other than this and the footage from "Your Touch" ? D: D: D:

This must be like their best performance ever.

seriously, I shat my pants.

[mm860]

Left and GONDOLALA

[JessRay101]

the only bad thing I can say about The Black Keys is that I didn't find them soon enough...pure brilliance.

[redmoondelight]

is he even using a pick?

[JohnRC4]

@redmoondelight

No pick. He's using his thumb to hit the bass notes, and his finger to pick the individual notes.

[tenchu0siris]

It helps to watch this video 1492 times over!!

[diogoneves4]

What would you expect from a crowd full of Emo kids?

[opedify]

This is one of the only bands I'm proud to call part of my music generation

[wardmopar]

@canoncola's comments says it all! lol!!

[wardmopar]

@canoncola's comment is the best comment i ever seen about the black keys! lol

[9Esnuzan5]

I simply can't help it, this song gets me violently pumped up every time I hear it.

[22kersh]

Forget the breast and a wing the Black Keys are the best 2 piece ever

[22kersh]

greatest 2 piece ever forget breast and a wing

[samthehiggins]

2:08 restored my faith in music

[canoncola]

White stripes, with no pulse.

[DarwinDiabl0]

@canoncola white stripes, with less ego and more soul...and better drummer...and less boobs...and less wardrobe...

[gothicprincess52]

yeah my favorite is the short blonde haird girl in the front with her boyfriend,, she obviously has no ideah who they are and she's being a good sport standing there getting her ears blown out for her boyfriend.lol

[grizmit]

This is what Black Sabbath would have sounded like if Tony Iommi had been born on the Mississippi Delta. And Ozzy could actually sing.

[verkpunk]

Grammys:This is obviously a rock band, but we have to nominate Tom Petty, Neil Young, and Jeff Beck because they put out albums last year.

Grammy Intern: How about we put them in that category that we reserved for rock bands under 60 years old? I think we used to call it "alternative music" back in the 90s.

Grammys:Great Idea

[j07191974]

bad asser!

[9Esnuzan5]

I love to watch Patrick rocks the Fuck out of his drums, too. Great Shit.

[Hauntedstateofmind]

love the black keys!!!!

[bozzybone]

Um...wow.

[flargeous]

some of these douches in the background obviously have no idea that they're in the presence of genius. idiots. dan's slide guitar blows my mind every time i watch this.

[Admiralex91]

DO not compare this experience with something mainstream from tv, radio, etc - its the premiere league of musical expression.

[aselfishimpulse]

great, great song. R.I.P CAPTAIN BEEFHEART

[TexasproXmods]

woa take a shit on me thats lighting boy and smokehouse brown these boys can play a keytar!! woaaa!! sounds like jimmy Hendrix had had a sex with the white stripes ans these boys were born

[1stp4ward]

I am blown away by this song!

[Vidalburgos]

White people aren't meant to play the blues, but this gets pretty damn close.

[9Esnuzan5]

@Vidalburgos

I disagree. Anymore nowadays, anybody can experience the blues. and if you have and you got the soul to express it, you can play the blues. Case in point these guys.

[Vidalburgos]

@9Esnuzan5 I definitely agree with you. I just finished watching a George Carlin special "White people aren't meant to play the blues" I just thought it was witty. I listen to Thickfreakness everyday, its a fantastic album.

[fw2us]

After decades of mediocrity in rock, a band has risen from the Midwest to return the music to it's truest sense; when rock was blues on acid. Hard to believe these guys have been around for 10 years with only a few who have noticed. My favorite "newer" band hands down. Keep it up, boys.

[ripkurdt]

Captain Beefheart is my favorite musician, but this is a really fucking good cover. I prefer Beefheart's more bizarre approach to it, but they make it sound quite nice indeed. Long live the Captain!

[chongzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz]

sweetest ibanez ever!

[SilentEcho33]

One kid is wearing a slipknot shirt....*sigh*

[Gerdrako20]

god gave so much power to these 2 guys :)

[zillah80634]

@resonancecascade89 its not there fault that they are struck with awe for the music touched them in such a way it made them forget to smile

[lepivert]

Yeeee I love it ! It rocks ! I wanna scream with the guitar.

[putoenano]

Since I listened to the Black Keys I have hope in music nowadays.

I'm believing again!

[knightstrike87]

#realmusic

[zx1357]

Captain Beefheart!

[samthehiggins]

i love that the emotionless douche bag in the front is wearing a slip knot shirt.

[DarwinDiabl0]

that's the best gum chewer i ever saw in a band- when did he join?

[GuitarLengends456]

@DarwinDiabl0 lmao i didnt even notice he was there =)

[petercrissisamazing]

@DarwinDiabl0 i litterly died laffing!!

[DarwinDiabl0]

@petercrissisamazing litterly?

[GrungePilgrim]

@DarwinDiabl0 John lennon started the movement. First gum chewer while singing cought on tv.

[Hail150]

wow, uncut and raw

they are ridiculously good

[SShayneO]

Wow one of the best live songs..... my ears have ever witnessed 

[TERRIBLEPRODUCTIONSS]

Sorry but this is so much better than the original.

[dfrmkdxnvfdx]

fuckk yeahhhhhhh

[mercurish]

bestes cover von welt von bester band von welt

[StoneAQueen]

@mercurish: Aber hallo, Kamerad!

[Spookaduke100]

FUCKING SICK!

[djh0267]

look at the douche in the slipknot shirt

[ryli182003]

what the fuck is wrong with this crowd. They just heard Jesus on guitar and moses on drums and 3 or 4 people clap. WTF!?!?!

[ScottHigham]

@ryli182003

Best damn comment I've come across in a while

[Sziszy72]

@ryli182003 Yep.. I wish I was there and stepped on his feet so he can show some emotion!!!

[petercrissisamazing]

@ryli182003 damn hipsters as jack white would say

[FuckingMindlessYouth]

I'm with you, but this music isn't for jerks.

[jenjennnn]

@ryli182003 couldn't agree more. Wake the fuck up people! Best comment ever.

[JohnFitz63]

@ryli182003

I completely agree with you, but its a hard place to get crazy. You can't expect them to go nuts in a crowded record store. That being said, they all deserve to be kicked out.

[MrHarvey1968]

@ryli182003 Eh? All of them are clapping...

[mm860]

@ryli182003 They look like hipsters, its not "in" to clap at tremendous music

[gangsta19x]

@ryli182003 i know man, they need to let real fans watch them live fuckkkkkkk

[MrAaaa42]

@ryli182003 their too cool to lose their cool

[poisonspring]

@ryli182003 They're in a frickin record store playing a Captain Beefheart song for a bunch of kids who are used to listening to crap. Plus, all of them are there watching, which I would have liked to have been. Cut a little slack.

[bollos211530]

This song is on my alarm clock.

I wake up to this song, and I don't wake up feeling ugly, I wake up feeling like a fucking champion.

Long live The Black Keys.

[MOONfacekilla]

is he finger picking the whole song or does he have any type of pick?

[Maynard0504]

1:18 14 year-old emofag with slipknot shirt in the front row? oh god...

[laffingman21]

UNNNNNNNGGGGHHHH people always talk about the Gibson SG like it's kind of cheesy because AC/DC had them, but they're SO GOOD. Personally, I like them better then the Les Paul. More versatile.

[NinetiesYouth]

pfft

[ILikeFood0460]

There would be a kid in the crowd with a slipknot shirt, of course!

[DAKMAIN]

I hate some crowds. I would be steel panther humping that one idiot sitting down in the face. Dancing like a fool. That's just me though, i have fun, and i don't just stand around at shows like a shitball. I know it's in a record store, Destroy all labels!

[Sketchthese]

This has got to be, possibly, the greatest live recording of "Grown So Ugly". I've check numerous and countless videos, even going to their concert, to listen to it, and this video is the only visual treasure that does The Black Keys justice. God Bless The Black Keys.

[spicedog22]

thats whats up

[savetheyeti]

man, i wish more bands would be cool enough to do this

[sybo59]

If you look at the crowd, you can clearly see one guy's face melting.

[bmtb210]

Goooosebumps

[ibejamesbrown]

That was awesome

[ZappaMaskReplica]

Only Dan and Pat can see and twist the Invisible Knob of Awesomeness...

[ZappaMaskReplica]

Only Dan and Pat can see and twist the Invisible Knob of Awesomeness...

[ZappaMaskReplica]

@ZappaMaskReplica I do not have such power, leaving me to foolishly double post

[fattirevsbud]

you guys are idiots why don't u just read the description: the song is called GROWN SO UGLY

[Buddles5]

Greatest Band Ever!!!!

[Buddles5]

Greatest Band Ever!!!!

[Timeconsumer9]

What pedals does dan use in this performance???

[Houdini116]

@Timeconsumer9 I bet he's using the green Muff.

[savetheyeti]

@Houdini116 he's using a Sovtek Russian Green Big Muff

[MildPsychedelic]

This would go great with The White Stripes' 'Ball and Biscuit'!

[gilesstocks]

I'm sat here SMILING.

[gilesstocks]

I'm sat here SMILING.

[blanchelle]

Good cover on Beefheart.

[nmcclure79]

I wish cool bands played at my local record shop!

[brent01b]

Whoever posted/recorded these vids...thank you! Very cool.

[sh3llys0fr3sh]

rocknroll \m/

[morgantown1]

TBK @ BONNAROO! WOOOO

[Gerdrako20]

Angola? WTF?... anyway greeeaaaat son!!!

[ryandude1994]

it might be left and gone since 1964, not angola

[JohnRC4]

@ryandude1994

Nah. It's definitely "left Angola." It is in the Robert Pete Williams original. It is in Captain Beefheart's cover. And it is the BK's cover. The whole song is about a guy going to prison and coming out a different (ugly) person. It'd be kinda strange to remove the prison reference from the song wouldn't it? It'd pretty much change the entire story being told.

[panamajack612]

@ryandude1994 ITS ANGOLA, A PRISON IN LOUISIANA

[epv1]

it's actually an ibanez law suit.

[BluesmaNeedham]

I want that guitar so bad. Gibson Custom Shop SG w/ 3 Humbuckers. Holy mess on my chest.

[dovisto]

@BluesmaNeedham that ain't a Gibson. It's an Ibanez lawsuit SG

[chaseduran]

What is Dan doing at 1:45? It looks like he's just pretending to do something for the break...

[srvgravesdime]

@chaseduran He's picking up the slide

[jtboll00]

goddamm this song is ten times better here live than on the album

[pvillebaseballstar06]

i can't agree with this statement any more

[fightthebattle777]

so eh,that Gibson SG...yeah, bitchin.

[aenima138]

It's an Ibanez.

[aintitthelife]

Wicked

[jtboll00]

i pray they play this song when i see em nye in chicago :)

[metachronos]

Yeah I'm seeing them then too, it's gonna be sick

[jtboll00]

ya ever been to the riv before.. hows it work.. is the floor open to everyone.. cause its sold out i dont want to get stuck being thrown into the seats

[metachronos]

Nope never been there before.

[maceuz]

Rock Lives!!!!

[bozzybone]

so nice. so freakin nice...

[OutOfTheClosetProd]

LOL Dan looks like Cousin It 'cause of the black and white :D

[clem3d78]

i've said it once and i'l say it again, this is 2,000,000% better than the beefheart original! who's with me? rock out with your cock out!!

[blacktionpacked]

not true

[xFrankAtanKx]

love this band also the SG he is playing looks a lot like the one Hendrix had does anyone no if its a replica of that guitar?

[vver]

its an ibanez lawsuit

[cubsfan224]

such an appropriate name for a ripoff guitar

[ryandude1994]

Yeah, but the weird thing is, the lawsuit that happened over the guitar was about the headstock, nothing else, the headstock...haha

[chaoticguitarist]

You can see the gibson logo at 00:42

[groundcat]

actually, that's Dan's white 70s Ibanez lawsuit SG with maestro tremolo,

[red95isback]

Damn! I have GOT to see them live! I hope they come to DC soon

[evend32]

HOLY BALLS! This is good gritty blues. I love it when bands take these super old delta songs and make them into this down and dirty modern style without losing a single bit of the blues!

Robert Pete Williams and guys like him have some good stuff and bands people like Dan Auerbach and Jack White keep it alive!

[joed424]

@evend32 actually, this version is based off the captian beefheart cover of the song

[gothicprincess52]

this is prison blues and how in gods name did 2 guys from akron ohio capture it. dan is one of the best guitar playres in the last 15 yrs,,he's playing to parts most of the time,,never see why anybody else never notices that,, the keys rule baby !

[kingny17]

playing to parts? watchu mean?

[ZappaMaskReplica]

you guys gotta remember beefhearts version is from 1967 so its not gonna be as heavy and w/e. i like both versions but the keys just knock it out of the park

[clem3d78]

i've just bought beefhearts version and this is way better, they've hit on exactly how the lyrics should be interpreted. beefheart could only wish his version sounds like this. the keys fucking own!!!!

[americkibosanac]

beefhearts sucks

the black keys are the shit bro
