I've just returned from seeing one of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs' two comeback shows at Bowery, and I gota say--I'm a tad disappointed. Or OK, more than a tad. A dollop? Anyway, though I wasn't expecting them to play older songs and pull out all the stops, most of the new material just doesn't have the energy live to merit them dismissing most of their

Ummm I wish we got the NME Awards here. Thank God for YouTube.

Also, I agree that "Y-Control" is their best song. I was near a dude who was not only old, but smashed to the point that he kept yelling, "I LOVE YOU MAMA" as if he totally had a chance with Karen O.

The sad thing about the new material is that it probably sounded way better in a live setting. Can't see myself having a lot of fun listening to the album. Definitely disappointing! I think even Karen's mother could tell.

I wish Bowie had been there! I went to a YYYs show and all I got was a James Iha sighting??

Everyone and their Mom was at that show, for real. I was surprised we didn't see Elijah Wood, and I wish that were a joke.

Yeah, the new album so far is not impressing me. They need to pull out all the stops in order to stay relevant... we don't need another Interpol/Strokes on our hands here.

I totally will! We can have Snack Dragon together. I was at HiFi with some friends, we went to get tacos once, then i had to go back like 15 minutes later because i wanted more. Best place EVER.
