NEW YORK, NY (Interscope Records) - As ripped-fishnet-clad Karen O impersonators, sculpted hair-gelled Nick Zinners, and bespectacled, head boppin' Brian Chases proved in their brilliant homemade "Cheated Hearts" video homages, it ain't easy nailing the rush of brutal energy and microphone eating that is the Yeah Yeah Yeahs live experience. And after an August spent blowing away (and spraying various liquids on) audiences at the biggest European fests (Reading, Leeds, Pukkelpop) the real deals will be returning to the U.S. for 13 more of their skeleton-shaking gigs. Come check out the song that inspired fans to strip, dress in drag, cram themselves into bathtubs, and throw Yeah Yeah Yeahs gang signs, plus a wicked awesome banner, and the rest of the band's live wire of a second full-length LP, Show Your Bones. 9/28 La Jolla, CA @ RIMAC Arena, UCSD 9/30 Mountain View, CA @ Download Festival, Shoreline Amphitheatre 10/1 Los Angeles, CA @ Hollywood Palladium 10/2 Los Angeles, CA @ Hollywood Palladium 10/4 Tempe, AZ @ Marquee Theatre 10/6 Dallas, TX @ Gypsy Ballroom 10/7 Austin, TX @ Stubbs BBQ 10/8 Houston, TX @ Warehouse Live 10/9 Tulsa, OK @ Cain's Ballroom 10/12 Pompano, FL @ Cinema 10/13 Orlando, FL @ Hard Rock Live 10/14 Atlanta, GA @ Tabernacle 10/16 Nashville, TN @ War Memorial Auditorium
