June 14, 200422 yr Im seeing Bob Dylan in about a week, and he kicks Radioheads ass, and dont even start on Franz. The guy is a genius, his guitar work is secondary to his vocals (He makes up his vocals and then just puts some chords to it, which is ingenius- I cant imagine doing it) and the rest of his band have made some interesting parts on top of it. Franz Ferdinand are ok, kinda, not worthy of anyones time-ish though.
June 14, 200422 yr dont bother with bob dylan he's so fucked up from drugs my friends saw him a while ago and were dissappointed
June 14, 200422 yr yeah good luck finding video shows of the strokes rare if you find them chances are the quality sound/video is gay
June 15, 200422 yr Well the last time I saw him was like, 3, 4 months ago? And he was brilliant. I wouldnt say hes on drugs, he definately was on drugs, about 4 decades ago, but now, he sometimes gets really into a performance, sometimes too much. I've seen clips of him babbling on for a 45 minute un-released cover of a Kate Bush B-side, just making up new lyrics on the spot. It was brilliant for the first 15, and then it really dragged. He looked like he didnt know where he was. But if he wants to, the guy can really explode a commercial audience.
June 15, 200422 yr well my friends saw him at a carnival a year ago maybe he was just drunk off his ass
June 16, 200422 yr i think he meant like, complete strokes gigs. I only have two strokes video gigs, and the quality is just horrible. you know what would be awesome? if the strokes released a live dvd.
June 16, 200422 yr but people would rip the dvd and then share it on kazaa. so you'd still be able to see it :cool:
June 16, 200422 yr one time i downloaded a whole strokes gig and one of them got done and i watched it and im like wtf are you kidding me? so i deleted all the other ones but now i wish i had them... damn
June 17, 200422 yr Man.. I was just looking over singles on amazonmusic.com, and christ.. How many singles have the Strokes released from Is This It?
June 17, 200422 yr only a few i thought modern age last nite ( i think ) hard to explain someday ( i think )
June 18, 200422 yr I knew those were singles. I just thought there was a lot more 'cause they played so many damn songs on Conan O'Brien, and I thought bands usually only played singles when they were guests on talk shows, ya know?
June 22, 200422 yr makes sense. But speaking of singles, today i've heard that under control is gunna be the next single. woop.
June 22, 200422 yr Damn'it. I think 'Meet Me In The Bathroom,' would make a great single. Can you imagine a video for that? What would that be like.. :stunned:
June 22, 200422 yr wow, I haven't been here for a while - glad to see that this thread hasn't died :D I'm excited that Under Control will be the next single - it's my favourite off the album. But I heard it's not coming out until the end of the summer. I guess they're too busy working on their new material and stuff to be making a video or whatever :/
July 5, 200421 yr Man, I was trying to pick my top five Strokes songs.. And I got 12:51, Hard To Explain, and Reptilia.. but.. I'm stumped, I can't pick just two other ones! :stunned:
July 5, 200421 yr i always skip 1251 mine are prolly take it or leave it hard to explain soma the end has no end alone together
July 5, 200421 yr hey thom i was looking around the strokes fan club webpage and it says that long time members get a DVD and a cd of the elephant song. like an official DVD... how sweet is that i just get like a signed poster or something
July 5, 200421 yr oh, so you got your poster? thats awesome man! can you scan it? and oh, official dvd, eh? i hope it is different from the one i have here. Like, i hope it is full of live footage and stuff like that. that would be neat.
