Not the most colorful day in Yo La Tengo history. In 2006, we’re in the midst of mixing I Am Not Afraid of You and I Will Beat Your Ass with Roger Moutenot at Brooklyn Recording. But in the present, things are hopping down here in Australia and New Zealand (playing our last show of the tour tonight). Caught up with Ildiko Kovacs’s tribute to New Wave Hot Dogs at the MCA in Sydney the other day, and just yesterday in Wellington I picked up an instrumental version of the theme from Cat Ballou by Danny Davis! (Sadly, not the guy from the Arkestra.)
