Sonic Youth @ the Apple Store in SoHo in NYC - pics, setlist
photos by Lori Baily
If you hung out in New York's Soho neighborhood in the early 1980s, chances are you could've caught an early Sonic Youth performing in an avant-garde loft space. A lot has changed in the last three decades. Last night, to celebrate the release of their terrific new album The Eternal, the indie-rock heroes returned to the now-gentrified neighborhood to perform a short-but-sweet set at the Apple store. [Rolling Stone]More pictures and the setlist from Tuesday's show, below...

one or two decent songs per album is not a good track record, SY are the yuppies they always claimed to dislike.

I was there regarding the avant-garde space they used to perform at. I only saw Thurston flanked by two live drummers but the SY members were always walking around.
