The Strokes - Someday Live Performance from T in the Park 2004
In July 2004, The Strokes were riding high on the critical acclaim of their sophomore album, "Room on Fire," which had been released just months earlier in October 2003. Captured during their energetic performance of "Someday" at T in the Park, this live recording showcases the band's evolution from their gritty garage rock roots to a more polished sound. Interestingly, this was a pivotal moment, as many fans viewed The Strokes as the face of 2000s rock revival, breathing new life into a genre that had been considered stagnant. Their charismatic stage presence and Julian Casablancas' unmistakable voice resonated with an audience eager for authenticity. This festival performance solidified their reputation, marking a peak in a whirlwind of creative energy that defined their early years.
