Stones Finally Rock Milan Message Board and Comments

I am thrilled that Mick Jagger and the Rolling Stones are so supportive of Italy and Italy's World Cup victory. How classy of the Stones to invite Del Piero (who I believe is friends with Noel Gallagher) and Matterrazzi onstage...... What a contrast from Julian Casablancas and The Strokes who failed to even acknowledge Italy's World Cup win at a concert in Torino yesterday. Furthermore, Julian not only was pulling for the French football team, he repeatedly said "allez les bleus, allez les bleus" at a Strokes concert in Paris, he allegedly made disparaging remarks about Italians. First, I do not know why Julian would root for France since he is half Spanish and half Danish. Second, why would he alienate Italians and Italian-American s??? I am Italian-American and I am furious. Third, it was beyond tactless for Julian not to congratulate Italy on its fabulous win when the Strokes played in Torino last night. For years, I was a Strokes fan but no more. I cannot listen to or support a band whose lead singer is bigoted towards Italians. I am also stunned and heart-broken.
