So... I know The Strokes are somewhat taboo on this list, but since everyone here writes about anything they want (for the most part), I'm going to put my two cents (or pence) in on The Strokes. I just saw them here at the Fillmore in San Francisco. The greatest things about shows playing in Bill Graham venues are the posters. I got a free one for Belle & Sebastian and now one for the Strokes. Anyways, these guys rawk! I needed a good rawking since I've been listening to lo-fi indie for the last month and a half. Just pure rawk and it was so nice to jump around and get hurt. Oh, and the Moldy Peaches were funny as hell! I have to get their album now. Anyways, that's my rant.
