...architecture is concerned, if the 20th century was the age of the box, the 21st is fast becoming the age of the wiggle. Over the past few years, and especially after the debut of Frank Gehry's Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao, Spain, the sturdy glass-and-steel rectangle, for decades the default mode for serious buildings, has begun to give way to the parabola, the whiplash curve and geometries so irregular, there's no point in looking them up in geometry books.

In a judgmental, fast-paced city known for spitting out new trends and soon abandoning them, the Strokes have managed to maintain their aura of cool in this city for six years. If they continue to put on shows like Saturday’s, then they’ll be around for a long time more...
