The Strokes / Eagles of Death Metal live @ Orpheum Theater 4/11/06

The Strokes live @ Orpheum Theater 4/11/06

All photos from the Strokes gig here. Slideshow here. Video here.

Rock 'n' Roll month continues. Yesterday it was The Strokes and Eagles of Death Metal at the Orpheum Theater.

Brian and I loved the show! I could write a rather lenghty review of the gig. However, this Stereogum review with great pictures sums it up nicely and saves me a lot of work (and time).

The Strokes fucking rock.

The Set List:

Heart In a cage
Red light
Juicebox
The end has no end
12:51
You only live once
Ize of the world
Electricityscape
Soma
Alone together
Someday
Last nite

Update: Chris wrote a review for the Strib.

P.S. The gig was almost as good as last time I saw them @ First Avenue in 2004. Primarily because of the venue. Here's the Filter review of that show.

Nice update rocknrollstar! I think you are officially back into the groove...maybe it's because winter is almost over! Metric looks cool as well!

Deathblow: Thanks! I hear somebody is going to a Twins/Yankees game soon though...

Solace: Yeah, setlist was really great. "Ize of the world" and "Vision of divison" were UNBELIEVABLE live. All the new stuff really sounded great, though. EofDM were pretty decent as well...

Queenvick: "Get into the groove, boy you got to prove...".
