ATL Remembers...The Strokes in 2001
Back in the year 2000, music fans and the media were all looking for a band to fall in love with. Happily, the very thing was delivered to the NME offices in December. The Strokes were such an immense gift to the music press. They had the look and the authentic New York rumble-punk manner. When the music hit the ATL mailbox soon after, the reaction was exactly the same and that curiosity in Belfast was well placed. The ultimate test was a Strokes gig at the Limelight. June 18, 2001, supported by fellow NYC act the Moldy Peaches. What transpired was a perfect rock and roll experience. ATL veterans Donna Legge and Helen Toland help to tell the story, with Jimmy Devlin from Radio 1鈥檚 The Session, former NME News Editor, Paul McNamee and presenter Stuart Bailie.
