hahaha i love the ones with jules and niko. preshow togetherness :lol:

It was hard to choose, but I chose Is This It. I guess because it was the first one and because of the Modern Age. I can't believe people don't like Under Control :cry: That's my favourite song on Room on Fire (well one of them)...

:stunned: hahaha crazy stuff :lol:

wicked shoes. (woohoo julian!!) i love converse. i only have black hi and low tops and really old navy blue ones i've had since the 7th grade. hahaha. they still fit too, but they have a few holes...

Seeing as how there's a thread for Nick and one for Fab, I decided to make one for the fabulous singer of the Strokes - Jules! woohoo hahaha

awww, cute picture! i'll give him a cuddle anytime :wink3: hahaha. here's a kinda fuzzy but still cute pic

Of course the music matters most and I think that when I like the music, it makes them seem more attractive... Personally, I think all of the Strokes are attractive. Mmmm Nick Valensi (and Julian) most of all (Nick is the one at the top)

http://www.livejournal.com/users/achtung47/1445.html#cutid1 woohoo I'm in a link-posting mood today. Here's an old article but it's still hilarious. I put it in my livejournal thingy. It's the one with the pterodactyl stuff. Nick is such a funny boy! :lol:

http://www.thestrokesfan.com/multimedia/videos/index.php Here's a link with some videos - stuff from Conan and at the bottom is the House of Blues one, which I highly recommend. It has The Modern Age with Nick's sizzlin' guitar solo :wink3: It also has 12:51 with Julian clapping which is hilarious.

It's definitely about the music. But it doesn't hurt when they're good looking too. I think that when I like their music, I find them better looking. (If that makes any sense). I didn't find Nick Valensi attractive until I saw him play the solo in "The Modern Age" :wink3:

I'm so glad to see all the Strokes love! It's beautiful :D Here's a link for Sagganuts. I hope it works http://perso.wanadoo.fr/the-strokes/mp3/The%20Strokes%20-%20Sagganuts.mp3 Let me know if it doesn't and I'll see what I can do about it. Enjoy!

Nick definitely should have been first! and Jules second :D

i love sagganuts (i think that's how you spell it) it wasn't on either of their albums, but you get to hear nick yelling "run, run, run." good stuff. as far as album stuff goes "the modern age" from is this it has a guitar solo (by nick of course) that'll blow you away. (well, it blows me away anyway)

Julian Casablancas :wink3: Pure sex. :lol: ....and Fran Healy. Especially at the end of Humpty Dumpty Love Song. I love Fran's voice so much. Just thinking about it makes me smile.

I absolutely adore Abbey Road and Rubber Soul. My two favourite albums ever :D

This is one of my favourite pictures of Paul and John

Oh no. The Nick thread was on the second page! I can fix that. :D :o he's so skinny

ooooooh I love your avatar :wink3: He didn't do any little drum thing when I went to their show. People in the audience were really annoying. They just seemed to play and run. Julian hardly did any of his little between song banter stuff. Where did you see them?

The Beatles are my favourite band of all time. Nothing even begins to compare with them. Just the range of types of songs they had, the amount of really excellent songs and just their whole body of work in such a short period of time. It's incredible. I love them!!!! Oh, and my favourite song is This Boy. :D

Has anyone ever read the (kinda old) interview from NME where readers sent in questions and Fab talks about wanting to be a superhero called the Squirrel or something like that. It's pretty hilarious stuff. Here's part of it: Do you prefer badgers or squirrels? Frank Bell, Edinburgh Julian: I think I prefer badgers. Badgers seem like they have more personality. Nick: My answer is that, considering they have beautiful cute little squirrels all over Central Park in New York. They’re sort of city animals. Fab: They’re really quick and they roll acorns in their hands and then they do this (mimes squirrel eating an acorn) then they stop and look about and then continue doing it. That’s shit great. Albert: And in Australia they can fly, right? In Australia all animals can fly, can’t they? Nick: In Australia all animals can fly? What about kangaroos? Albert: Well, all the animals are weird then. Kangaroos are like giant rats Fab: If I was a superhero I’d be The Squirrel, dude. He can climb anything. he can fly and he’s a badass. Nick: Shit, you're right Fab: And he’s got a big tail Albert: And he’s cute, so he get all the ladies Nick: And you’d be, like, eating nuts all day Julian: Fab loves nuts :lol: That whole interview is great!

Awww

I hope this works...I love pictures of people taking pictures. He seems to do them alot. Of course any picture with Nick is a good picture. ;)

Thanks! I can't wait for them to come back - which unfortunately won't be anytime soon :cry: But for anyone who lives in the US, the Strokes are supposed to be on Letterman sometime in May. (I think the 20th, but I'm not entirely sure) That hickey is really disturbing. It looks like he was sucked by a leech or something :lol: yuck that's gross.

here's a picture of his neck i found on someone's icon in thestrokes livejournal community.
