Saturday night we saw Yo La Tengo at the Trocadero in Philly.  I knew they were good, but I was unprepared for just how amazing they would be.  In the picture above, Ira Kaplan is playing the Farfisa organ (vintage, mind you) with his whole leg.  Georgia Hubley makes playing the drums for two hours look effortless.  James McNew can play the same bass line perfectly for 10 minutes straight while Ira acrobatically plays a guitar solo with his elbows.

They are the elder statesmen of indie rock.  See them if you can.
