The Black Keys received a "solid punch in the face" last year.
The 'Lonely Boy' duo - made up of Dan Auerbach and Patrick Carney - cancelled a planned North American tour last year, for which they blame their management at the time, and faced criticism for their decision to play a show at ‘America Loves Crypto’, an event in Ohio hosted by the Stand With Crypto Alliance political organisation, and they've now admitted the experiences made them realise they need to be more involved in making decisions to help them maintain a long career.
