Yo La Tengo 2015

Brand newYo La Tengo job. They're coming back to Dublin in October. Always a great show.

Yo La Tengo (again)

Yo La Tengo gig in Dublin last night was fantastic. A real joy. The place was packed and the crowed just loved them. Their set was long and relaxed but also extremely well planned and executed. Instruments being swapped without any interruption. Ira even tuning and swapping his guitar during songs. Anyway, above is a photo of them onstage. After the gig some dude pulled down one of the billboard posters I had done and was getting James to sign it. I thought this would make a cool addition to the blog. Afterwards I had a brief chat with James, what did we talk about? The Best Show.

Yo La Tengo (tomorrow!)

A few days ago I posted a Yo La Tengo poster. Here is the 2 colour billboard version photographed in Dublin. Posting this version because the gig is TOMORROW NIGHT. Should be a good one.

Here's another poster that's actually live at the moment. Yo La Tengo are coming to Dublin next month. I'm not posting this because of some outstanding contribution to graphic design, it's a pretty standard 'album tour' based poster. It's here because I'm looking forward to the gig, especially after this from Tom Scharpling on The Best Show a few weeks ago; "On Friday night I got to the Roseland Ballroom to see Yo La Tengo. It's awesome! They're doing it. As good as I've EVER seen them. they've got the new album, they're all fired up, they're rocking out, they're doing this they're doing that, they're covering all the bases. Three people up there doing everything. It's shocking when you see them in their element like that. They bounce from this instrument to that instrument. James McNew, he's the most talented dude going. Watch this guy, oh, play bass, oh play keyboards, oh play 12 string guitar, oh play drums, do whatever you want, this guy does it. They were on fire."
