The Strokes to play London museum

The Strokes play the next in the series of T-Mobile Street Gigs on Thursday 6th July. The band will be playing against a back-drop of dinosaurs, fossils and foliage at the Natural History Museum, London.

This is bound to be the hottest ticket in town and there is only one way to get your hands on them, log onto www.t-mobile.co.uk/street.

The Strokes debut album 'Is This It' was released in 2001 and reached number 2 in the UK charts. They reached number two again with their follow-up album 'Room On Fire' and reached number one for the first time in the UK with their latest album ‘First Impressions Of Earth'.

The Strokes said "We have played in many different places before but never in front of a dinosaur, we are looking forward to it, will be a great night”, on playing the gig.

The only certainty is to expect the unexpected! Recent T-Mobile Street Gigs involved The Streets performing in London's only lighthouse, The Rakes rocking out a Turkish Kebab shop and Pharrell playing at a fruit market! A total of 20 bespoke T-Mobile Street Gigs are planned for 2006 and each one will be a unique entertainment experience in its own right, created by T-Mobile in order to bring music fans closer to the experiences they love.

Over the next few months, T-Mobile customers and their music fan mates will have the chance to see their favourite bands performing live in the most unusual and unexpected settings…the select crowd will always know where their Street Gigs experience starts, but they'll never know beforehand quite how it's going to end up!

Tickets are strictly by invite only. To be in with a chance of getting on the guest list for this intimate gig, music fans must register online at www.t-mobile.co.uk/street from 10am Tuesday 27th June and closes at 9am Monday 3rd July.
