The Strokes Live Performance at Paradiso Featuring Meet Me in the Bathroom
In February 2002, The Strokes delivered an electric performance at Paradiso in Amsterdam, just a few months after the release of their debut album, "Is This It." The album had dropped in October 2001, and it was already causing waves in the music scene, re-establishing the garage rock revival. They were on the rise, capturing the essence of youthful rebellion with catchy hooks and Julian Casablancas' distinct voice. The live show featured hit tracks like "The Modern Age" and "Last Nite," showcasing their raw energy and charisma that fans adore. Interestingly, the performance came before they would hit even greater heights with their follow-up album, "Room on Fire," which was released later that year in October. This period marked a key moment for The Strokes as they solidified their place in rock history, with fans flocking to see their lively shows in intimate venues.
