Black Keys Star Carney Turned To Hypnotist For Stagefright Help
The Black Keys star Patrick Carney hired a hypnotist who had once allegedly worked with actor Russell Crowe to help him combat stagefright after an overwhelming Lollapalooza festival performance.
The drummer reveals he suffered a panic attack onstage during the show and feared he'd never be able to perform in front of an audience again.
So he turned to an unnamed hypnotist for therapy to help boost his confidence.
Carney tells Entertainment Weekly magazine, "(It was) a guy who worked with, like, (late North Korean leader) Kim Jong-il and Russell Crowe. The next night I sleepwalked out of the hotel in my underwear... but it worked."
