    Just when I thought I'd decided on my 'Albums Of The Year' list, along comes a late contender! I seriously can't believe how consistently awesome The Black Keys are, this album is fantastic!

    The United Center (Chicago) is denoted this way. I thought it might mean the venue is more "subject to change" than usual... :lol:

    Last year, they played the Aragon for 3 nights. The UC would have a completely different feel, obviously.

    I've heard really good things about Arctic Monkeys, so for me, the pairing should make it worth the money. Tickets look a bit steep.

    Man, I know The Black Keys are more popular these days, but I am surprised they have been booked to play such big venues. Even with The Arctic Monkey's opening I think it will be hard for them to sell some out.

    All for the CCCC show in Portland though. GA...sweet!

    This tour may have gotten started back in Aug. at the Outside Lands Festival. I was at the Sat. show and the Arctic Monkeys went on right before the Black Keys. :D

    I don't think the shows will sell out either. I think they can rock the shit out of them though. The outside Lands festival had supposedly 75,000 people to see the Black Keys. I know festivals are not the same as venues ;) Still looking forward to this as i'm sure it will kick ass :mrgreen:

    Ahhhhh! Thanks very much.

    That would explain the discrepancies.

    So excited that they are coming to Maine. I wish they were playing the State Theater instead, but I'll it.

    Should be a great time.

    If there's one bad thing to say, it's that the artwork is a bit crap. No lyrics, just photos of old Chrysler Town and Countries. That said, it's only a very small complaint - the album is genius! :D
