[F] [D] Narwhal!
_ _ [F] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ Who are you?
Patrick.
From?
The Black Keys.
And Patrick, who do you have beside you?
Dan.
Hello Dan!
Hello, how are you doing?
Welcome to Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, Black Keys.
Thank you.
Right off the bat, I have a gift for you guys.
Uh, thank you.
It is right here, a 19_
a 19_
what's in this cloth right here? _ _ _
[E] _ A 1930s bottle opener. _ _
I'll be able to answer it, but you go ahead.
Very close.
You should touch it, because it's_
I know what it is.
Something from Akron, indeed.
In fact, Black Keys, please unearth it.
Oh.
A 19_
I don't know what the 19's_
1980 Devo bobblehead!
Yeah, Freedom of Choice era, I like that.
Do you have one of those?
No, but Dan and I actually just had bobbleheads made of us,
and we're both wearing jeans that come up to here on the bobblehead, which is amazing.
And I was thinking, you know Devo, this is pretty interesting,
is it true that Alan of Devo used to jam at your grandmother's house?
_ Uh, yeah, my uncle Ralph and Alan Myers went to high school together,
and I guess they would smoke weed and_
I don't know.
Jam.
Jam.
They'd jam, man.
Devo connection.
Devo connection, yeah.
And what do you think about Wes Anderson apparently is going to build a Devo theme park in Akron?
I didn't hear about that, but if it happens, that's amazing.
There's an abandoned amusement park there called Kiddyland that he could just probably walk right into,
and it's already weird, so_
So it looks like Pat has claimed the Devo bobblehead.
No, he gets it, he's the big Devo fan in the band.
So who exactly gets left out in the Black Keys?
Is it Dan or is it Pat?
Left out?
Neither of us get left out.
Like you don't have anything right now.
I told you, there's no_
I got a towel.
Well, actually, I got something better, because we don't want you to be left out there, Dan.
We have another little gift here for you in this towel right here.
What could this be?
This feels like another bobblehead to me.
Wayne Kramer, that's kind of sick.
Yeah, beautiful.
Now, not only is it a Wayne Kramer bobblehead_
It looks like a Jim Morrison bobblehead as well, though.
Man, that's old school Wayne Kramer.
He looks like that, man.
It's even better than that.
Push that little button, and be careful, and then get ready to groove out.
Get ready to groove out.
_ [C#] _ _
[N] _ _ That's cool.
That's pretty cool.
That's pretty cool.
Black Keys, you guys are into sniffing, aren't you?
You like sniffing, don't you?
Like glue sniffing?
Like Akron.
Huffing?
Akron and sniffing go together, don't they?
Oh, scratch and sniff.
Yes, exactly.
What can you tell the people right here about the scratch and sniffing on this particular record right here?
See, is this blue vinyl?
No.
I can tell you it's not the original pressing.
So it might not actually have scratch and sniff.
It does actually.
Schmell it.
Scratch and schmell it.
Maybe you can show the people.
Oh, yeah.
And what is the smell supposed to be?
It's supposed to be rubber. _
_ _ A schmell of tire.
Now, this is foundation for Akron.
You guys are now foundation.
But what is the importance of this particular record?
Can you tell the people?
This is a compilation of Akron bands that came out on Stiff Records in England in like 1978, I think.
Maybe 77.
Yeah, so it's got, I don't even think Devo's on this actually.
But there's a band called Shy Pig, which is a restaurant that was in Kent.
Chicken Pig.
They served chicken and pig.
Then my uncle is in a band that's on this, Tin Huey.
He played horns in that band.
And there's a lot of weird stuff.
The Waitresses, which is half of the Tin Huey.
The Bizarros.
So there we have it.
Scratch and sniff with the black keys.
I gotta get you guys a special gift here.
We have right now M.O.P.'s How About Some Hardcore.
There you go.
This was amazing.
You guys got to work with Billy Danz of M.O.P. What was that like?
He was actually probably the coolest dude.
Zero ego and funny and really nice.
What's interesting also about him is he's really into the bootleg clamping down.
Did he tell you any stories about going after bootleggers?
There's a great video of him on YouTube going after bootleggers.
_ _ He did threaten to stab me in the neck.
He was joking.
Over what though?
We were working on something and we were running out of time.
It was the last day in the studio.
After a few hours I told him we had to wrap everything up in two hours.
He just started busting my balls so hard in front of everybody.
He was joking but it was funny.
It's actually on the record.
I think it's the last.
Did that contribute to the Onyx Beef?
No.
I just thought about this for the first time in five years, two days ago.
That we had a beef with Onyx accidentally.
That was a career highlight.
It's amazing.
Also RZA playing guitar?
Yeah.
He used the guitar sort of like_
I don't know how to describe it.
It was interesting.
He goes for it.
Your reaction is captured there brilliantly.
I don't even remember.
You're in the corner there looking over through the corner of your eye.
Wow!
RZA on guitar shredding.
He was amazing.
This brings up another important question here Patrick.
How good are you at hiding from Dame Dash?
Hiding?
I don't need to hide from Dame.
Didn't Patrick sort of hide from Dame Dash because you weren't afraid to hide from the cameras were you?
_ I didn't even really notice him.
I would just spend a lot of time in the bathroom smoking cigs.
Yeah, that's right.
The studio was cigarette free.
I was curious.
Dumpster diving?
Children's Palace?
Roemig Road?
It actually was called the Bingo Palace when we were in high school.
There was a hamburger station, one of the Akron chains there.
_ It was right next door and one day my friends and I decided that we'd go check the dumpster.
We realized that every Thursday after the bingo they'd throw out all the candy.
I had a trunk full of black licorice once.
What was grosser about it?
That it was black licorice or that you got it in a dumpster?
I like black licorice but it was stale and it was from a dumpster.
Nobody likes black licorice man.
A lot of interesting people come from Akron.
Are you aware that Shalamar have some roots?
Howard Hewitt in Akron, Ohio.
I don't know anything about Shalamar.
I don't know Shalamar.
I've just heard them referenced in Wu-Tang songs.
Exactly, yeah.
Ghostface references Shalamar all the time.
I just assumed he was talking about a sex resort.
And he's referencing your hometown.
Howard is from there.
Bacanor and Garcia who did Pac-Man Fever, they're from Akron.
Have you been able to track them down?
_ No, but I thought those people who did the Disco Duck were from Akron too.
You've made it haven't you?
I don't know man.
You've made it Patrick.
Patrick made it.
He's got a bobble head.
We both have bobble heads.
I was going to say White Castle tweeted at you.
Oh yeah.
That's pretty exciting.
Did they really?
I don't remember it but yeah, it's possible.
How could you not remember that?
How bashful is Patrick?
Does he not tell everything?
He should be proud of that, don't you think Dan?
Of all the things that he should be proud of?
Yeah, absolutely.
We were on tour in 2007.
And it's our tour manager at the time, Jamie,
who now has a pedal company called Earthquaker Devices. _ _
After we had a few beers, he'd always insist we go to White Castle.
And we would get these things called Crave Cases, which are like 30 burgers.
And we got suitcase, a little cardboard White Castle suitcase.
We were playing a show, I think we were in Minneapolis,
and we got two of them, 60 burgers.
We ate so much, and we ended up having a food fight.
I woke up in my room, and there was two White Castle burger patties stuck to my TV.
And the next day, he started using the Crave Case to put all of our money in.
Yeah, he would set all the shows, and he'd bring in his suitcase,
and it would be this White Castle Crave Case.
Thanks so much, Black Keys.
Anything else you want to add to the people out there at all?
Yeah, I mean if you're in Akron, I recommend going to the Goodyear World of Rubber.
Scratch and sniffing.
It's a museum about the size of this area we're standing in that just sells blimp erasers.
It's cool.
Blimp erasers are very cool.
Why should people care about the Black Keys?
Why should people care?
I don't know that they should.
_ _ _ We're not here to tell people what to care about.
Alright, well, thanks much Black Keys.
Keep on rocking in the free world, and doot doodle doot do.
Thank you.
Doot doot.
Yeah.
