So you think you’re pretty cool, huh? Well then we’re going to assume that you’re a Yeah Yeah Yeahs fan. It’s actually pretty much required for cool people around these parts, along with an exaggerated sense of self-importance and also probably a bike. We’re also going to assume that you already know this, but just in case you don’t, the band is back with a new album, Mosquito, just in time for the nice weather. Summer in NYC is always better when there’s a new YYY’s record to turn up loud. The band’s frist single “Sacrilige” is a good place to start.
For today’s Friday Fives, Yeah Yeah Yeahs vegetarian drummer Brian Chase was nice enough to take some time out of his busy schedule to hook us up with five of his go-to places for eating things. Milkshakes at 2am and the best doughnut in town made the list. We like this guy.
The Yeah Yeah Yeahs are performing in Prospect Park tonight with The Flaming Lips as part of The Great Googa Mooga Pre-Party, and tickets are still on sale. We forgot to ask Brian which Googa Mooga vendors he’s most looking forward visiting, but we’re gonna go ahead and guess it’s the foie gras donuts from Do Or Dine. God those things are good.
To keep up with the latest, bookmark the Yeah Yeah Yeahs website (do people still bookmark things?) and make sure to buy their new album. Your summer will thank you.
