Here are some highlights from theblackkeys' show at theforum
"We are beyond honored to have a guest come out and play with us tonight. Someone who we all up here onstage idolized over the years,” said Auerbach while introducing the guitar legend. “Not just because he's an amazing musician, but because he was from our own backyard, from northeastern Ohio.”
