Julian Casablancas @ HMV Forum

Perhaps I wasn't in the right mood on a Wednesday night for this, but I was a bit bored. Didn't see any of the supports, and only had upper circle tickets so getting down into the crowd may have helped. Regardless, after exhausting all 8 tracks of "Phrazes For The Young" and another couple of new songs their was a Christmas song and we all filed out fairly orderly. I don't think he has progressed too far from The Strokes and given that it was a 6 (or maybe 7?) piece band I'm sure he could have made it a lot more interesting than it was.
