It’s okay to be a Yeasayer

28 Nov

This is a little late… last weekend I saw Yeasayer. I love them… their tunes are endlessly catchy; mellow and yet dancey all at the same time. A little bit experimental and a little bit jam-bandy.

The show was great. It was at Bimbos 365… which was an experience all in itself. An Italian dinner theater: tables, glamorous curtains and a fantastic dance floor. If I ever get married, I want the reception to be there. It’s 6000 bucks to rent the space out for a night; so it’s good thing I don’t believe in the institution of marriage.

The best part was that the band was really into their music. Even if I didn’t enjoy every piece, clearly they did – which emits a really nice energy.  The crowd was mixed and for the most part – everyone was a hipster twenty-something. Some dude sat next to me on stage right and was so messed up he kept missing his other hand when he tried to clap. It was another reminder that drugzzz are really bad.

    I already knew I was old and “out of touch,” but this confirms it. I hardly know what you are talking about — but I think you like this band……..er, group, whatever it’s called now.

    $6000 per event rental is high — THAT I got!!
