Akron, Ohio, July 2002: Two young men, Dan Auerbach and Patrick Carney, Akron natives and college dropouts the both of them, are working for a local property owner, the type of guy who owns a variety of low-rent apartment buildings around town in various states of semi-repair and full-blown disrepair. In short, the boys mow lawns for a slumlord. Between them, theyve got a truck, two lawnmowers and a weed-whacker and, like everybody else, a hustle and a dream: in addition to working together, the guys play in a duo called The Black Keys (named in honor of a schizophrenic Akron artist, who called the boys black keys, his phrase for people who werent quite right)
