Yeasayer/ MGMT at the Hi-Dive

The Laramigos were snowed in! That sound you hear = us weeping.
Julio offers a great photo essay - I'm envious of the chance to see these two bands, and increasingly enthusiastic about what I hear from them. Maybe they'll swing back through in summer?

Yeasayer & MGMT coming in February

I keep hearing these two bands pop up, and I like what I hear! Yeasayer is catchy and delightful. Just last week an email came in my box from a friend saying, "are you listening to this MGMT song?" Good stuff. Looking forward to seeing them at the Hi-Dive February 4th.

Yeasayer's Wait for Summer on kexp. Perfect on a short cold day like this!
