To The Brink

The Yo La Tengo concert last night at The Fillmore was nothing short of an ecstatic experience, taking it to the brink of madness and restoring my faith in music to drown out all the other nonsense in our lives.

And they currently have one of the cooler album titles in a long time: "I Am Not Afraid of You and I Will Beat Your Ass."

A few samples in case you're not familiar with them:
Mr. Tough (which reminds me of Beck's Debra)
Don't Have To Be So Sad
I Heard You Looking

To top it off, The Fillmore handed out these awesome posters they made for the show, which was a nice bonus to complete the evening, and which is already on my wall in all its glory.

Oh, and if you have a chance, watch this documentary. It's got some amazing footage, and the stories are more compelling than you'd think.

Cheers.
