The Libertines...

7cut - 10-8-2004 at 12:12 AM

i always thought they´d not be special but they were on TRACKS (Arte) yesterday and i somehow liked them. so after all, are they to be considered on of the many annoying "The" bands or outstanding ? don´t know much of their music so far ...

OUTSTANDING. Definitely NOT just another "the" band. They have something special about them.

Nice picture, by the way :)

They're one of my all-time favorite bands.

that pic was my avatar not too long ago!!
blinding at reading, not too impressed with the pete replacement tho :no: but gary rules!! he's so happy!! :lol::lol:

Why didn't you like Anthony?

I know there's no way to replace Pete, but he's a great stand-in, in my opinion. He plays well, and has good stage presence. I agree that Gary rules! He's so friendly! :D

Here's my pictures from the San Francisco show, if anyone cares
to take a look.

they are on conan tonight

FlowerDancerL - 10-13-2004 at 11:29 PM

They've had some moderate hype here in LA at mostly the independent venues and music outlets. I think Indie 103.1 plays a cut from them. Looks good - I'd like to hear more.

Whenever i'm over excited to see a band on a late night show , That I REALLY REALLY LIKE i always fall asleep. As if its on purpose or something.

TurtleEnterprises - 10-14-2004 at 08:21 PM

I am listening to their stuff right now for the first time. Really good catchy stuff.

TurtleEnterprises - 10-14-2004 at 08:22 PM

So far I like Death on the Stairs.

prettyvacant - 10-16-2004 at 11:48 AM

best song is either what a waster, time for heros or i get along. probably the last one, i love that song!!

TurtleEnterprises - 10-16-2004 at 02:13 PM

My sister thinks there annoying but I am loving them so far.

7cut - 10-18-2004 at 01:47 AM

friend of mine seem `em playing in Pennsylvania .....

Gary > everything.

draconian - 11-6-2004 at 07:33 AM

Yeah, Gary is so underappreciated back there, yet imo he's one of the best drummers playing right now. He is the glue that holds that band together.

poobs - 11-6-2004 at 09:00 AM

I remember at the show I went to, people cheered the loudest for Gary..He seems to be the most popular member of the band, from what I've seen and heard..:yes:

lomax - 11-7-2004 at 08:26 AM

i saw them at reading this year and Gary was the only one that actually wanted to be there.
