They should be plenty good. I just saw them in Nov. 2004, and they were rather great!! |

Please add to the conversation, Joey. That walking weed is "looking tired". |

Yeah but they look weirder!
They do sound like The Stones and they are all brothers from the deep south!
Great tunes though and excellent live! |

Was William really his middle name? Joey, he lived a long easy life. Let him RIP & raise a glass in his honor tonight. I've gotta go check out Maxy's... |

Joey, I love Dirty Work. Yes, the packaging sucks & some of the production values "have been" but one can't deny the impeachability of the songcraft. Killer vocals & slashing guitars. |

But no, there's not much at Maxy today except how unoriginal you are. I am shocked at what I've read. I'm sure you aren't! |

G-car, I'm happy to "introduce" you to KOL. But, check them out live in your area. Their first cd "Youth & Young Manhood" is just great. |
| January 24th, 2005 12:12 PM |

|
| glencar |
Yes, FG, send me one of their CD's if you can. I'm kinda getting a lotta Stones lately! it's great but one can't live on Stones alone. |

What are your thoughts on U2's latest?
Do you like Alice In Chains or The Libertines? |
| January 24th, 2005 12:23 PM |

I liked AIC & I like what lil I've heard of Libertines. I have the new U2 & I find it somewhat drab. I need more rock in that roll. |

Yeah.. Im totally groovin to these tunes... I can't recall who it is/was that made the post, perhaps you?? but oh man.. I can't get enough of the Kings of Leon!!!!

I don't like KOL 2nd cd-Aha Shake Heartbreak-its too mellow.

Hi.. I tried valiantly to get thruogh the Libertines music, and I felt it agonizing at best. It's too slick, too clean, too produced and too formulated. I'd be more inclined to see/listen to The Killers. Do you like the Irish band, the Thrills?? How 'bout Canada's own lesbian sisters, "Tegan & Sara"?
To make an analogy, the Kings of Leon are like fresh young OHL hockey players, where artists like the Stones are NHL hall of famers. The passion in K.O.L. is refreshing and lustful. I wish the Stones could recapture some of that recording-studio magic. (ofcourse they don't have to try any harder than NHL'ers cos' they've already "made it"). Its a shame.. but I'd say KOL would get the KO over Libertines.
Cheers love! |

I didn't think The Killers were very good live, like Snow Patrol, Keane and maybe Franz Ferdinand a bit: bad sounding live sound imo.
FG: have fun in DC. I'm with you that KOL's first album is waaaaayyyy better! |

Hello Make It Funky,
I think the Libertines are superb-they have great riffs and awesome, introspective lyrics. They pay homage to their heros(like Patti Smith) in The Boy Looked At Johnny. I think both of their cds are brilliant, but the first cd rocks harder. I saw the Libertines live (sans Pete) and they were GREAT!!!
Angiegirl, I'll post a review of the KOL show.

go see the truckers!
i will have to check out kings of leon. really havent given the libertines a listen (and i know that i should). i have heard most of the other bands mentioned in this thread on the radio, and i am not nuts about any of them...
and jet has got to be one of the most overrated acts in recent memory (except for the darkness - they take the cake in the overrated dept.) |

I like Jet. I saw Jet live with the Vines.
The Vines sucked.  |

Factory Girl,
Hey, I hope the KOL are great in-concert for you - and am getting tix myself for the Toronto show. Looking forward to both the show and your review.
Jet is really good in-concert, I saw them in Gold Coast, Australia, and they did a killer version of Taj's "Ain't That A Lotta Love".
Have you heard of the late Big Sugar?(Gordie Johnson's band)? Or how 'bout Sam Roberts?? Do you like Ryan Adams? (or has this been covered already? haha)
Cheers mate. |

Hello Funky,
I have not heard Big Sugar. I do not like Ryan Adams.
I thought Jet was so-so live. The Libertines are superb live. |

I'm with you FG, Aha Shake isn't up to the snuff of Y&YM. Still, you can hear a good band in there. A sophmore slump perhaps, or more likely, Y&YM was so good that they may not be able to get back there again.

Hey, SS-KOL is opening for U2 on some dates. This will introduce them to the US masses big time-I hope the masses dig them. |

Opening for U2 is like opening for the Stones....no one cares.
I'm giving KOL a miss this time. Already seen 'em....and for free at that! I prefer to leave it that way. |
