YES!!
I spoke personally with fab about the lead on 11:59! cos that cars keyboard sound is a guitar: It's NICK!! fab told me!!
on ITI theres more of a dual rhythm attack like the velvet underground.
the structures on ROF are more alberts rhythms with nicks single note leads!!

is it just me or is this picture orgasmic?
^ Oh dear. Glad to hear Fab and Drew are still going strong.
I think Nick is the only of the band who's looks have improved. I prefer him with longer hair like in the Reptilia video and his new clothes, compared to his shorter hair before.

drew
as I mentioned last week, it was fab's uncertainty about getting hitched NOW that is the sore point in his recent tumult with drew.
drew is older, shes been married twice, she sees her strokes friends getting hitched, SHE WANTS to get married.
fab has now called off marriage/engagement TWICE and drew is justifiably pissed although they are still going out.
read the new ST*R for all the details & some great pictures.
ps if you like nick's "CLUB" striped schoolboy blazer above, brooks brothers is selling one now for about $440. - it's on the 2nd or 3rd floor at madison ave.

latest-
I hear drew barrymore may be the cover star of april us vogue.
I saw the pierces last night, lead singer catherine is engaged to albert stroke. she wore a really big glittery diamond ring. I thought she & her sister were excellent, from song writing to singing to stage poise. i am not much into their genre of alt-country-folk, but given thatchoice of genre, they do it excellently. its a nice change from the typical garage rock or new wave rehash you usually see in nyc clubs.
I also spoke to albert a bit, he is definitely the nicest stroke.
I actually thought opening band au revoir simone was even better, 3 tall & beautiful modelesque-prep school- hipster- fashion girls who play 3 80s type synth keyboards. their song writing is kind of like the poppier side of devo or other keys based new wave. their singing, usually 1 lead with 1 or 2 harmonies/contrast vocals, was really cool, a lot more sophisticated than their sing-song-y pop songs seem on the surface. i guess you could say its closest to stereolab, but the more poppy, sing song steroeolab side, not the indulgent or spacey experimentation that sometimes makes STLab lose focus.
I would recommend au revoir simone highly, and if you like alt-country-folk you will love the Pierces they do it well & look fantastic.
