The Strokes

On August 16, 2002, The Strokes were in the midst of a catchy, rebellious wave with their debut album, "Is This It," which had dropped just a year earlier in 2001. This live performance of "Someday" showcases their energetic, garage rock sound that quickly catapulted them into the limelight. Interestingly, just as they were gaining massive popularity, they were often touted as pioneers of the early 2000s rock revival. The band’s unique blend of indie rock and raw authenticity resonated with a generation craving something different, and this performance captures that exhilarating moment in time. With Julian Casablancas’ distinct vocals and the band’s tight-knit energy, this show is a snapshot of their climb to stardom, perfectly balancing the rawness of live music with polished artistry.
