Week in Rock: BAM, Beacon, Bowl Edition

Clap Your Hands Say BAMPrior to their performance at BAM last Friday night, there were rumors running rampant that the show would be Clap Your Hands Say Yeah's final performance. It wasn't. The band was in good spirits and assured us there would be more to comeâtheir set list even included five new songs. Tunes from their debut album are what got the fans most excited though, many of whom were dancing in front of the stage at the seated venue. Some of the oldies included "The Skin of my Yellow Country Teeth," "Over and Over Again (Lost & Found)," and "Is This Love?" Seems like just yesterday we were hearing these for the first time. — Gothamist
