Anonymous asked: Just wanted to let you all know that Julian did a cover of Buddy Holly's "Rave On" for a tribute CD (incidentally also called "Rave On") that's coming out June 28. Other artists covering Holly's tunes include Lou Reed, Paul McCartney, Florence & The Machine, She & Him, Cee Lo Green, and many others. THIS IS GONNA SOUND GREAT, the mere idea of Jules...

Q: “What were some moments during your set (at the Madison Square Garden show) that really stuck with you?”
Albert: It’s like whenever you go to a new level of something you do, it reminds you of the first time that you did it. Going on stage like that normally, it slows down and I’m kind of able to see whats happening. There, it was like everything was the first time and I was...

THE STROKES | YOU ONLY LIVE ONCE

Just wanted to share this, made me laugh!
In 2002 the beginnings of a friendship between the Strokes and their support, the Libertines, crumbled after Pete Doherty stunned a Birmingham dressing room by asking if anyone had any crack. Julian Casablancas, unaware at the time that if you put a brick wall between Pete Doherty and some crack, you’d have a Doherty-shaped hole in your wall,...
lotus-asshole asked: As for the last question with the photo where the person is wondering what concert it's from, I think it might be Sheperd's Bush Empire in 2006, or Hammersmith Apollo. I believe it's Hammersmith Apollo in 2006 (17th or 18th of February).

Haha, so clever.
Interviewer: Tell me about the production of the album. It sounds very stripped-down. Very raw.
Julian: Well, our producer had to be naked at all times while he was recording us.
Albert: We ate raw meat off the bone.
Julian: Everything raw.
Albert: Yeah. It's very primal, you know, we slept in caves for a couple weeks. Didn't shower.
Julian: Every time you met a hot girl, you just take out your baseball bat and like whack her on the head and like drag her back to your place.
