(rock nyc) On Monday afternoon, a big and surprising (to say the least) announcement was made by concert promoter, FYF fest organizer, Sean Carnage: The Strokes were scheduled to play at Pehrspace next Monday for the modest sum of $5.

Pehrspace? The place, that is so hard to find, at the back of a parking lot, where all these underground bands play? Wow, unbelievable, this place looks like an apartment unit and cannot contain more than 40 people! Did you say intimate? You have intimate! But according to seancarnage.com the Strokes (not a cover band) were announced for Sean Carnage / Kyle Mabson Monday Night Six Year Anniversary Party, pt. 4 on August 22nd. There was even a link directing to a YouTube video of 'Last Nite',� it sounded like the real thing?

A little bit later, Sean Carnage posted that the Strokes' appearance had to be canceled, declaring 'The show must go on, but the headliner is cancelled. Your safety at my shows is my highest concern.' Read the statement here
