Katzenjammer on tour – 2010 dates & belated by:Larm pics

I caught the Norweigian, David Byrne-approved, all-girl group Katzenjammer while I was in Norway for the by:Larm Festival earlier this year. Naturally, I never posted the pictures, so here they are in honor of the group's current tour which brings them to Mercury Lounge in NYC TONIGHT (7/6). They're a little corny, but super energetic and fun, and Mercury Lounge is a way smaller venue than where I saw them play in Norway to a highly enthusiastic crowd.

Jon Parales referred to them as "a Norwegian version of the B-52's" (and the B-52's just so happen to be playing a NYC show tonight too). More pictures from Norway and all tour dates below...
