Reilly Posted June 14, 2004 Share Posted June 14, 2004 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mycdplayerisbroke Posted June 14, 2004 Share Posted June 14, 2004 dont bother with bob dylan he's so fucked up from drugs my friends saw him a while ago and were dissappointed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mycdplayerisbroke Posted June 14, 2004 Share Posted June 14, 2004 yeah good luck finding video shows of the strokes rare if you find them chances are the quality sound/video is gay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reilly Posted June 15, 2004 Share Posted June 15, 2004 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valleyboy Posted June 16, 2004 Share Posted June 16, 2004 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CityandColour Posted June 16, 2004 Share Posted June 16, 2004 That would.. Except it wouldn't also, because I don't have a dvd player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valleyboy Posted June 16, 2004 Share Posted June 16, 2004 but people would rip the dvd and then share it on kazaa. so you'd still be able to see it :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CityandColour Posted June 18, 2004 Share Posted June 18, 2004 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?

Valleyboy Posted June 22, 2004 Share Posted June 22, 2004 makes sense. But speaking of singles, today i've heard that under control is gunna be the next single. woop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CityandColour Posted June 22, 2004 Share Posted June 22, 2004 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: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexis Posted June 22, 2004 Share Posted June 22, 2004 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 :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
