Remembering Saturday

As I was talking to Michael and John of What Made Milwaukee Famous they told me a story about how at a recent festival they were asked by the Black Keys if they could borrow Jeremy's (the drummer) drums for their show. Naturally, they accepted. Little did they know that Patrick Carney (drummer of tBK) thoroughly thrashes his drums when he plays and thus left Jeremy's sagging and useless. They spoke of their plight, searching desperately to find a replacement kit at 8a.m. as they were scheduled to do a live video for a website early next morning which led to the eventual discovered their trusty music shop. Long story short and a roundabout way of saying it, the Black Keys are great. The members of What Made Milwaukee Famous are champs and I can't help but post a video for each.
