Photos: Man Man / Yeasayer [Minneapolis, MN; 04/18/08]
Photos by Jon BehmContorting faces, clash-happy colors, and copious facial hair were the orders of the day at Minneapolis' Varsity Theater this past weekend, as Man Man and Yeasayer swept through town as part of that big friendly joint tour thing they've been doing.
With all the dates that remain for both parties-- including a few recently-added Man Man in-stores-- it's looking like nobody will have a chance to shave until at least mid-May.
