I love The Strokes. I'm pretty excited for the new album. It will probably leak soon if it hasn't already.

They are giving a free concert in Austin the week of SWSX, I think 3/18. The sucky thing is that I will be leaving Austin back to Ohio a few days prior. The Strokes are the best active rock band going, IMO.

My two kids under two need us back home. I think they'd be able to find the cereal in the cabinets, but there's no way they can work the TV remote.

:D

You and I both. I'm far more excited for Arcade Fire and Mumford & Sons though. Plus The Black Keys, The Decemberists, Florence + The Machine, Iron & Wine, My Morning Jacket....and The Strokes. It's going to be fantastic.

Although the $90 I paid last August to see Mumford & Sons, Frightened Rabbit, MGMT, and then Arcade Fire is pretty much unbeatable.

I'm going to see Arcade Fire and The National in Chicago on 4/22 and The Decemberists here in Columbus on 4/23 for a bit of a warm up tour. :D

Strokes new album was leaked today, and you can hear it all on youtube. It's definitely electronic so to speak, but it's still got the Strokes style. It will take a few listens, but it's definitely a good album so far.
