[rottenlove420]

holy shit. this was at the horseshoe in toronto back in 2001. i was there!!!!! some classic footage of the best band and greatest thing to happen to music in the last 10 years =)

[slurpslurpkitty]

Haha it sounds like Fab is playn the intro to you could be mine at the beginning of the video

[sillysp8]

My favorite band for about 4 years now, and forever.

[euyfdvfhj]

@sillysp8 Yeah, I only discovered them about a year ago...but they became my favourite band very quickly ; and I don't think anything could top them now. It's a shame more people don't appreciate this style of music anymore. I know your comment was from a year ago, so are you still a fan? And what did you make of angles?

[zeromagic]

stroke fan from peru

come here plx.

[SydOctavie]

THANKS!

[yolo1998]

[ryguylp13]

[Nimzi]

[soccerbcd]

lol 2:14

[nammek]

at 1:47 Si es Cierto

[potatoes1502]

orgasm!

[nammek]

that was the day they filmed the video for last nite

[maxyramone77]

q buena banda x dios!!! es una de las pocas como la gente q qda!

[evd81]

Same shirt as the last nite video

[tramon]

They`re fucking good

[1251alexRR]

thats the thing with the strokes, you dont meet many of their fans, but when you do they like them a fucking shit load, and thats fucking cool cause the strokes are amazing and its good to know that they only have true fans.

[micolevi]

that is so true!!

not many can aprecciate good music, fewer aprecciate creative geniouses like the strokes.

But the people who do get them just cant get enough, haha their like a drug!! u always want more of them.

[evd81]

I don't know if they're "creative geniuses." Julian is, but the other four probably aren't.

But I agree with your theory about Strokes fans. I've only met of a few people who know about them where I live in the Midwest, and they all seem to love them.

[film4thefuture]

Are there not many Strokes fans in the US? They were very big here in the UK back when their first album came out, seems odd that they aren't that well known in their own country...

[1251alexRR]

nah, people know who they are but not too many fans since people are into shitty music like Fall Out Boy and My Chemical Romance, and all that crappy Death Metal and Hardcore music. Things are quite different across the pond mt friend. Even though Cream(thats right, Clapton,Bruce, and Baker!) is my favorite band of all time, The Strokes are my favorite modern band.

[lasfinisimas]

Really??? here in Mexico every single nu-rocker dress up like the strokes! Even the preppy kids are kinda into them...well at least a couple of years ago. They kinda change things around here

[1251alexRR]

yeah, i have family in mexico, people are into things like Mago De Oz and Marilyn Manson, fucking gay shit. Well Mago De Oz is sick, but fucking Marilyn Manson is gay as fuck. They don't even know who Cream or Van Halen is over there, it's whatever they're music television feeds them, or their friends. Or if it's in English they'll like it.

[lasfinisimas]

Well we know who Van Halen is...but we are trying so hard to erase that shit from our memory. And there's more diversity here than you think (or hear), we are kinda the second biggest city in the world, so its not Arkansas here (no mean to offend)

[1251alexRR]

erase what from your memory?

[2degenerates]

Dude! You said it... It's good to know people like you are still out there listening to good music.... and more importantly.. recognizing that most people listen to shit.. ie: "my chemical romance" and metal etc. etc. etc. I don't like cream.. but fuck, I can tell you like good music. if you're curious, you can check out my band at

m y s p a c e . c o m / s p a r k l i n g w h i t e

[1251alexRR]

How do you not like cream? haha. Pure geniuses.

[musicinducedeuphoria]

that's so true. I've only ever met ONE other Strokes fan (and she is obsessive about their music, like I am), and I meet a lot of people. I go to a public university and always ask people what music they like...

most Americans don't appreciate The Strokes.

the person I was talking about (the other fan I met) is from Russia originally, she moved here when she was young

[musicinducedeuphoria]

hm, actually, let me change that, I know one other fan (so, two in total) but I forgot about him because we never had a discussion about how hot Jules is =)

[1251alexRR]

and what country is your university in?

[musicinducedeuphoria]

the US. I was replying to the comment that there aren't a lot of American Strokes fans. my university is in California, by the way.

[1251alexRR]

hah, I live in California as well. It's where it's at.

[enjoisb008]

haha really I know many strokes fans here in California and they can't wait till they start playing again. haha.

[santilhenobsb]

The Strokers is my favorite band.

I'm talking from Brazil.

Hugs.

[cossack77]

I'm from America and I think they're the best band out right now. I'm a huge fan. It's just that they don't get as much credit as they deserve here in America.

[kiwi130190]

why??? that's such a lame¡¡¡¡ in other countries lost....miles...millions of people love'em me for example and i'm from Mexico

[kiwi130190]

i love them to die that's all

awesome band, the bestever band

[Jackrel0]

Even the audio is bad, it doesn't hide that the performance is flawless!

[swedishzug]

gives me chills

[rupman27]

jules is wearing the same outfit from the last nite video!! and the wristbands lol

[McGizzleFoShizzle]

"crazyman4985

man what happened this band.. Probably had the potential to be the biggest band during these days.. They fell off :-\"

They took a break, comin' back in '09.

[smitchems]

genuises

[erkansson]

this is probably one of the best bands ever. really, i have never liked a band like this before.

[ecrocksmysocks]

@erkansson same here man

[XkiaRAWRx]

My absolute favorite song from 'Is This It.' ;]

[CarolinaBelfast]

absolutely love it!!!!

[megsonera]

lol

[Arc73]

this has got to be their best song.

[neezkinne]

Julian's vocals in this song is so completely arousing, and the music, shit! What I would give to have a relationship with this song.

[graff44]

"i'm sorry you guys were standing outside when we were doing the sound check, that shits fucking cool man...you guys really appreciate a fucking show, that shits cool"

[JoRemiStroke]

yeah he totally does:-) "and i lost my face again", right before he sings "and i tried my luck with you!"

But this is not important, it's just a bit mind-buggingly that they changed name of the song in europe o_0

[Jrix73]

they didn't change it in england...

[fc3chris]

actually its "And I lost...my page...again...and I know this is so rare But, I'll try my luck with you...A This life is on my side...Well, I am your one?..Believe me, this is a chance"

[XkiaRAWRx]

Surreal....not rare, hun.'

[fc3chris]

is it?? are you sure???? Well.....my bad....

[XkiaRAWRx]

Ha, very sure.

[Janzztube]

it's actually rare..

[XkiaRAWRx]

It's surreal!

It is so clear you can tell.

If he said "this is so rare," it wouldn't make any sense, to be honest.

[JoRemiStroke]

same in my country, a damn shame they don't send the strokes on the radio. In Norway this songs name is "Lost my face". Strange that they would change song-name

[PortugalTheAccount]

but he doesn't say 'lost my face' anywhere in the song.

[vyce51]

yeah and on every album track listing its called "Trying Your Luck"

[crazyman4985]

LOL Prasito please @ Strokes on the radio? Everyone knows the Radio is polluted with people like gwen stefani, akon, avril lavigne and other crap like that.. Haven't heard a strokes song on the radio in years.

[interpol1]

do yyou have the rest of the show

[interpol1]

hey man do you have the rest of the show

[berlioziano]

one of their best songs

[armik2]

I think he is pissed because they did not have a good sound check !you can hear one guitar on left is almost too high comlpare to the other guiter (the fender) but i can be wrong !

[mauriceloz]

more like 2001

[concertmania]

wow the Toronto horseshoe tavern this must have been back in 1999 or 2000.

[thierryhenrythebest]

in 1999 and 2000 this song wasn't released.. Back then this song was called This Life and it sounds a lot different

[prasito]

(for crazyman4985) what happened ?? they are the biggest these days...guess u dont have a radio or a cd player huh ?

[crazyman4985]

man what happened this band.. Probably had the potential to be the biggest band during these days.. They fell off :-\

[sweetnobsessed]

nothing happened to this band. what the fuck. theyre still as good, even more so.

[Janzztube]

what do you mean what happen. they are the best band.

[musicdudette]

i love tht video (and song) i thnk its gr8 hw julian thnx evry1 at the end, it so sweet awww :)

[v00d00daddy]

this show was that the horseshoe tavern in toronto...and at the end he says thanks toronto f%&#in eh...you guys rock and then mumbles something about a guy and the soundcheck.

[fabastroke]

any more old vids

[peripari]

oh i just finished it and at the end he was thanking his fans for the signs outside and appreciating them basically

[peripari]

lol GREAT QUALITY but thanks for sharing the hotness that is Jules<3
