We clapped and said "yeah"


I like Scott. I like his wife and son too. I think his son also likes me! Anyway, Scott and myself went once more to the easy-as-ABC to see Clap Your Hands Say Yeah! Good gig. Very different than the last one I went to, but it is hard not to compare. This band lacked the stage presence of the decemberists, but their music was quality. If you haven’t heard them, there are plenty of downloads out there, including some at their website.

The music is fantastic. They played all the hits – they probably played all their songs, as being a new band they don’t have many! The vocals are, well how shall we put it, being kind – distinctive; being cruel – a vic n bob pub singer on helium. If you can see (or should that be hear) past the vocals then you will encounter an extremely creative and energetic band. Being big on t’internet has certainly aided their cause. It’s amazing how quick the hype/word spreads. Definitely worth it though.
