NYC’s flamboyant pop-rock trio YEAH YEAH YEAHS fronted by the utterly
charismatic Karen O released their wondrous, critically praised 6th album,
the first in 9 years, named Cool It Down last September.

They’re touring in Europe at the moment.

Tomorrow they perform at the legendary Paradiso club in Amsterdam,
originally a nineteenth-century church. Every big name in rock played
there (before getting massively famous) over the past 55 years: Pink Floyd,
The Rolling Stones, Jimi Hendrix, Ramones, Sex Pistols, The Cure, Blondie, Oasis,
Arctic Monkeys, PJ Harvey and countless more. And it’s still a place where
every up-and-coming artist wants to play at least once.

It’s one of my favorite concert venues ever.

And as a big YYYs fan I’ll be there, in the front,
at a gig that sold out the day the tickets went
on sale last March.

This is what to expect.

SETLIST

They played in France yesterday.
I made a Spotify playlist of their
set to prepare for tomorrow night.
