As I write this, we're only hours away from sundown on Hanukkah night four, otherwise known as the fourth night in a row Yo La Tengo will play a show at Maxwell's in Hoboken. You already heard all about night two (12/22). The Magnetic Fields opened. Here are the rest of the pictures from that one...



After The Magnetic Fields opened, comedian John Hodgman warmed up the crowd...





...for Yo La Tengo...
















Stephin Merritt's band The Magnetic Fields opened the show. Here he is singing "Be Careful, It's My Heart" with Yo La Tengo...

Then Guided by Voices' Doug Gillard showed up and sang some songs....




Another Hanukkah tradition: Ira's mom closed the show with "My Little Corner of the World"...





You can read the actual whole setlist HERE. And the opener's setlist HERE.


Doug Gillard has four shows coming up at Pianos in January.
John Hodgman is joining Eugene Mirman at the Bell House in February.
