Well folks, I did it. I saw Interpol (Wednesday, September 26, 2007)! Stubb’s. Austin, TX. It was incredible. Absolutely incredible. One of the best shows I have ever seen. And I have seen a lot of shows. I don’t care what you have to do…just go to an Interpol show. I promise that you will not be sorry. Here is a pic of the band that fateful night in Austin when all my dreams came true… Sigh…
