There comes a time in every band’s career where you have to wonder, how big exactly is this band? The Black Keys are at this point, where they have now added a second leg to an arena tour that includes two sold-out shows at Madison Square Garden and the Arctic Monkeys opening all dates. And, looking down at the westward leaning dates below, you will notice a lacking of an L.A. stop, indicating a likely visit to Coachella. This begs the question, are The Black Keys big enough to headline Coachella? Even considering the fact that they were a sub-headliner last year?
Well, the next couple days will tell if our suspicions are correct. But, for now, check out the current tourdates for The Black Keys.
