This July, The Black Keys were kind enough to drop in and do a Theft Of The Dial session with us before playing a long Sold-Out show with Cage the Elephant.

We talked about some of their numerous and exciting upcoming projects and where they see their careers going forward. Dan geeked out regarding Doctor John. Patrick explained why he no longer runs a record label. And each of the gents gave compelling reasons for choosing their playlists.
