Concert review: Yeasayer at Metro
Chris Keating, Anand Wilder and Ira Wolf Tuton, the three principal members of Yeasayer, arrived on stage Thursday at the sold-out Metro looking like they belonged in three different bands: Keating in preppy slacks and shirt, Tuton in a sleeveless T-shirt, Wilder sporting a camouflage jump suit.
It was just a prelude to the group’s grab-bag approach to musical genres.A running joke in the set was Keating teasing the crowd about a great bill he had once seen at Metro a decade ago: Black Sabbath and the Wu-Tang Clan. Or was it the Stooges, the Dead Kennedys and Public Enemy? And how about that Chuck D and Iggy Pop duet?
