So I was just reading the new article in Spin magazine about the Black Keys and artist of the year, when I read this:

May 18: Brothers Born

Brothers debuted at No. 3 on the Billboard chart after it was released on May 18, behind a Glee soundtrack and the reissue of Exile on Main St., brandishing the kind of commercial muscle -- 73,000 units shifted -- that, on another week, might have commanded the top spot. "We were all in New York that week, doing TV and some rehearsals," Carney says. "We went to dinner at the Jane Hotel, and our label told us. I was f'ing floored."

So, how could I have met them?

As we all know they opened for PJ on the 20th of May and I was STAYING at the Jane Hotel the night of the show!

I was probably in the hotel hanging in my room while they were at the restaurant down stairs! It would have been so cool to have met the guys, I even had their brand spankin new album in my backpack the day of the show! Maybe, they weren't there right when I was, but I am going to assume they were! :mrgreen:
