I realize this has been asked in a much older timed out thread from 7yrs ago but its driving me crazy: around 2:18 mark in the "Someday" video there is a girl speaking to the bass player who has to be Mila Kunis. Is it possible she was caught on film on a date that she wasnt officially contracted / credited ? Lol- its interesting that Kunis came to the U.S. Just a few years before and couldnt speak English - only to be the American Pop Culture "it girl" by 2001. I suppose they are all about the same age and the Strokes came to power about the same time the kids of "70s show" did. It would only make sense that the two interacted during this time. Whoever she is- she looks enthralled with the bass player. She was cute. Extremely cute.

I recently was forced into sampling some early Strokes videos this past week ( via YouTube feed) and I want to apologize to the guys for not have adopting them as one of my very top fav bands 25 plus years ago. Of course, I have heard "Last Night" played over and over and over since about 2000 or so in various public settings and I never gave it its fair due. Seeing the video and realizing how the twin guitar sound was working within- with a great bass player/drummer topped by a Jim Morrison idolizing front singer - I was instantly sold. I wish I could go back to being 22 again and getting to see some of those earliest shows. I apologize to myself for not doing that. Better late than never - " If the band was a snake it would have bitten me"

Im sorry I know this is a dated series now but Ive finally seen it and have heard John Alite talking about all of these mafia endeavors he was part of in the 70s and I did a little math - and ? ??? Well is it me or did the producers of "Fear City" find someone very tangential to the old mob life of NYC and didnt fact check anything/claim Alite made?? From what is available online ( and Alite is with the other washed out mafia nuckleheads on Youtube) Alite was basically a neighborhood scumbag buddy of John Gotti Jr. ( who was never respected himself for simply being a mafia nepo baby.) - who turned informant/tattle tell on Gotti Jr. during Jr's last federal RICO trial. If we have anyone more aware of the post Gotti Sr. Mob in NYC - maybe someone can tell me Alite is someone to pay attention to or not pay attention to. Sadly, the only first person mob contributions left are from the ones left via turning informant or like that idiot who played the son in law in "The Godfather" - he just makes up crap and says it publicly no matter how easily a calculator can proove him a lie. I guess its just part of them trying to serve us mob aficionados without any real sources of info left alive.
