Since I will be out of town Aug 1 through Aug 10, I can virtually guarantee that the show will take place sometime during that span.
Every NYC show is scheduled for that week. Ugh.

Are you sure you don't mean "Hippie rock for indies?"

Undie Rock for Hindies?

God, please, when will Yeasayer disappear?
The fretless bass gives it all away. Their shit is prog, but only after prog turned bad. Calling them a "brooklyn band" is like calling IKEA "cool, European interior design."

they sure do have nice turtlenecks though

1:29 - your analogy is absurd and completely irrelevant.
Calling Yeasayer a "brooklyn band" refers to the geographical fact that they live in Brooklyn.
Even though it is often used this way, the term "brooklyn" does not constitute an actual musical style.
Likewise, calling Ikea "european interior design" is correct because the design originates in Europe. calling it "cool" is a judgement call.
However, "european interior design" is not an actual style. cheap department stores love to make you think "european" is a style, but it's not. It's a continent.

They sound like Yes, fronted by a suburban kid who has just discovered emo.
And yes, they probably shop at IKEA.

Thank god. Now I don't have to pay $80 to see them.

I'm not paying 30 bucks to listen to boring shite musac and watch some dude throw his hand back then follow that up with falling backwards on the floor behind him and squiggle like a turtle on his shellback. How ehh, pre meditated. I don't get the hype.. Ahh, maybe I'm not meant to but DAMN I just DON'T.

A little help please. From DC, but willing to travel to catch the summerstage National show since they'd played in the remote sticks of DCurbia - is it (the venue) worth it? Thnx!!!!
