MGMT & Yeasayer for Spin Magazine

Spin Magazine called me up in January and asked me to take pictures of Yeasayer and MGMT playing at Schubas’s here in Chicago. I had just started to get into both bands and I really love MGMT’s Time to Pretend video so I was glad to meet them both. They were interesting guys- Ira from Yeasayer has a hilarious story about how he now carries a knife with him because of an incident of being trapped in a bathroom by a guy who started screaming and speaking in tongues. The MGMT guys talked about magnetic bio-vibrations and spirits.

    Hi Joe,
    Great pictures. Any chance you’d be up to share some with us? You’d get credit where used of course. Probably would just put them in our gallery online or just in our little news blog. No sweat if not. Hope all’s well.
    Tim
