      not really. i met her and she’s a massive bitch and diva. it’s was for a tv show here in mexico, she didn’t like the piano the production brought (elton john has played with that piano). she didn’t care for the fans that waited for almost 5 hours for her to come out. so rude with everyone in the production. i used to like her before this, it was very heartbreaking.

      The mere fact that you we're fortunate enough to see The Strokes in '03 is amazing. I recently just saw them for my first time at the Governor's Ball (their first show back after their long tour break) and it was amazing, so I couldn't even imagine the older strokes.

    lol i think i know exactly what she means by the intervals and stuff. like in The Modern Age, Hard to Explain and 12:51 there's something about how the melodic notes go together in the choruses in the first two songs and the verses in 12:51, it's like a release or something. IDK maybe if i saw them all on music sheets it would make more sense.

    She's not freaking dumb, you guys. She's absolutely adorable and is fangirling over one of her favorite bands. Give her a break, the woman is intelligent. Some people can find it easier to express what they're feeling when they're writing, some by talking, and my guess in Regina's case, it's singing.
    She could also be high. That is a very likely possibility for her. That doesn't make her music any less amazing, though. I'd like to see you write/sing like that.

    i agree with her comments on their music. you can tell they put a lot of effort and thought into their guitar parts, i think of classical piano music, the way their accompaniments are interesting enough that you pay attention to the melody and the guitars. They also use alot of unexpected notes that might not be part of the chord, i think that's what she was referring to about their intervals
