Chairlift @ Bowery Ballroom, NYC - pics (Pianos tonight)
Photos by Tim Griffin

Two of the bands packing venues (MGMT style) this CMJ are Passion Pit (I'm partially predicting the Annex & Pianos's future) and Chairlift (like yesterday/Tuesday at the Annex and Pianos). Chairlift are now basically done with CMJ because they leave on a tour Thursday with Yeasayer. They do play one more public show at Pianos tonight though (10/22). The pictures in this post are from the set they played on Saturday with The Juan Maclean at Bowery Ballroom (10/18). More of them below...

If they're performance at Annex last night was any indication, then Chairlift is way overhyped. It was an uninspiring, boring set.
