Boy oh boy. I finally found something worth mentioning. Just came across this on the new RELEVANT magazine. they don't really mention where the information is coming from but i assume it's no joke.

"Ryan Adams has covered The Strokes' debut LP as a blues record? apparently just for fun. He recorded the album in full on a four-track, but the album will probably never be released. He tells NME.com "My band has heard it, they all think it's pretty funny. It isn't making fun of The Strokes, it's because I really like them a lot" ..."

i'd love to hear it. if only he could only put a white stripes spin on it... that would be the ultimate flavor of the month concoction. in liner news, we practiced monday. just spent time on three new songs. hopefully one or all will leave the basement and come to a venue near you soon.
