Yo La Tengo are heading out for more of their wildly innovative "Spinning Wheel" shows, taking it on the road through the end of June. They start in Brooklyn before heading out to Europe, and then come back to play the American midwest.
They invite an audience member to spin a big wheel that will determine what type of songs or item they'll perform. Categories range from "songs that start with the letters" to Condo Fucks songs to "Sitcom Theater," in which they attempt to perform an entire sitcom script.
