I'm Really Not Worried About What Fans

A Grammy Is Really Nice, But Having Lots Of Fans Is Really Nice, Too. I Think Just Getting A Record Out Is A Success On Its Own.

It's Hard To Be Spontaneous When You Have 40 People In Your Crew, And You're Playing To 16,000 People Every Night, And There's Giant Lighting Rigs, It's Hard To Change Direction On A Dime.

The Black Keys Is Just A Band That Wants To Get On Stage And Rock It.

Bands From Akron Have A Sense Of Humor And Don't Tend To Take Themselves Too Seriously.

I'm Certainly Not Your Typical Front-man Material. Some People Love Being On Stage And Really Open Up, And I'm Sort Of The Opposite Of That. I Don't Crave The Spotlight. I'm Still Not Comfortable Even Talking On Stage.
