I think they are great. Actually sounds more bassy live. The Cold Stares are the only band that I've heard that really cover the bottom end live, they are unreal. But the Black keys are not represented well in this audio...they kill it live!
Going to have to disagree. Minimalist bands like these are awesome because it's barebones Guitar and Drums. Bass would be cool in some songs but generally it would take away from the character of the Keys
@evend32 one year later......"the black keys, they are a awesome 4 piece band". love their success but don't like hearing that. and once is to much. but i've heard it more. brothers is groovy is shit though.
i would really be disappointed if they added a bass and im pretty sure they arent going to. although some of their songs do have bass in them that dan also plays
i fuckin love the black keys, i saw them at the orange peel the nite before this show, might be hard to believe but it was even better than this show, if anyones been to the orange peel they know what im talking about it was awesome, one of the best shows I've ever seen and I've seen quite a few...

@lizentrail It looks like a Rickenbacker 330 Mapleglo... They're absolutely beautiful guitars
This is a Great Performance and the guitar does sort of make the preformance for me!
Just passing on what someone else said on a Black Keys Video...
I dont think there is a single bad Black Keys song!

a lot of people say that, but I've always thought they sounded more like hendrix than the white stripes.
just personal opinion.

Anyone who has seen them live will tell you that there is no room for bass. They make plenty of noise all on their own.

@BigAndo21 I just saw the Black Keys live in Cleveland and they included a bass and keys player. Sounded great.

seriously, I don't know if they should or not because they are a great band together but maybe a bass would add something more in their songs

I think it works guitar and drums because the guitar just roars "Hey... Fing listen to this". As a bassist, I think bass would take away from it.
