Did you see the Strokes in Cleveland back in '02? Can't remember the name of the venue, but it's the same place where the final scene of School of Rock was filmed. I couldn't get enough of "Is This It." My buddies and I drove all the way from Dayton to go see them, and the lead singer was SMASHED out of his MIND. Totally worth the drive!

I did not go, I REMEMBER the show - it was at the Agora, and I saw them there 4 years later
