JULY 22 & 23 – Red Rocks Amphitheatre
The Strokes are bringing the “Reality Awaits” Tour to town, celebrating the quintet’s first new album in six years, out July 24, but also unofficially celebrating 25 years since the 2001 debut “Is This It” that crowned them demigods of the indie rock scene. So far on tour they been tearing deep into their catalog — choosing 19 excellent cuts across 100 minutes — with the bottled-up vigor of the teens and young adults who formed the group nearly three decades ago.
