스트록스의 앨범 Is this it이 저번 The NME Top 50 albums of the decade에서 1위를 차지한 데 이어, 롤링 스톤 선정 100대 앨범에는 2위에 선정됐다. 1집은 정말 세간의 평가가 좋은 앨범이었군요. 새삼 느끼고 있다. 2, 3집도 평가가 좋았다면 좋으련만. 앞으로 낼 4집은 크게 터트려 줬으면. 아니 일단 만들기나 하고... 1집이 이래저래 좋은 데 선정되는 것은 기쁘지만, 1집의 명성만에 가려져 있는 기분이라 그건 또 그거대로 꽁기꽁기하다. 물론 나는 스트록스의 매니지먼트사가 아닙니다만.
니 옆에 있는 자리, 그 자리가 내 자리였어야 해
줄리안의 솔로투어는 잘 진행되고 있다. 얼마전 파리 방송에서 한 공연에선 out of blue를 불렀는데 꽤 좋았다. 중간에 나온 열혈 남성팬이 포럼에 사진이랑 후기를 올려줬는데 진짜 친절하구 그랬다. 팬들하고 찍은 사진이 한무더기씩 쏟아지고 있다. 부러워라... 한국에 올 거라는 기대는 하지도 않고, 내년에 스트록스로 잘 컴백해서 봤으면 좋겠다.
