Title: Black Keys Video
Post by: buffcoat on May 14, 2011, 09:51:14 AM

At the end of the 2/15/11 show, Tom sarcastically congratulates the Black Keys on their music video, calls it junk and then says, "We Win."  Does he explain that later?

The Black Keys video seemed to be thematically similar to a Kevin Corrigan project that debuted the very same week.

Noticed it's directed by the same dude who picked up Tom's would-be Ke$ha vid. In the Nymag article it said Tom jokingly pitched Ke$ha an idea that used horse heads. Well, the video actually ended up with unicorn heads in it, and not directed by Tom.

Also the cameo-heavy NP/BK videos that came out around the same time like Green Lectern said.

Imitation is the sincerest form of Yutz-knucklery.
