not only were julian's vocals supurb, nick and albert's guitars were on fire! these guys are better live than their studio work...which i think is rare. even when everyone was singing along you could only hear the band...amazing!!! i do think the most interesting thing about this band is even though they enjoy tremendous success, they're still these 5 shy guys on stage. i say this, because for a good portion of the shows, the stage is backlit and they play in shadows, hiding just how fabulous they are. they played a healthy mix of all their albums, which was awesome. and now i think i'm totally in love with the bass player, nikolai. for the entire show he didn't move more than 2 steps from his position, he never broke a sweat and his hair was neatly in place!! he really is the coolest.
and i do wonder if julian's voice is that raspy in person. i hope so. that would be sweet!
so thanks to peter for taking me to see the strokes. it was a fantastic night, and you should get out to see them!!!
