Once every seven hundred days, Denmark's Junior Senior takes New York City by storm and then disappears for another two-year span. Last night marked the duo (complete with backing band and vocalists!)'s first visit since 2005's remarkable Mercury Lounge gig. The day could not have come any sooner for a JS mega-fan such as myself.
There are a few variables you can almost always count on at a Junior Senior show - silly dancing, infectious tunes, and huge smiles planted on all faces within the venue. Last night we were treated to all of that plus a guest appearance by Le Tigre's JD Samson!
JD came out to sing her part in 'Can I Get Get Get', in addition to hopping around the stage during the closing encore of D-D-Don't Stop The Beat's 'White Trash'.
Last night's set was a no fuss run-though of the best tracks from Junior Senior's debut LP as well as their sophomore effort, Hey Hey My My Yo Yo, complete with one jolly new track, 'Trust Tissue'. Here's hoping their next visit will come sooner than 2009. Enjoy some more photos, the complete setlist an old-school Junior Senior MP3 below.
Setlist: Go Junior, Go Senior/Chicks And Dicks/Dynamite/Good Girl, Bad Boy/Rhythm Bandits/Happy Rap/Itch U Can't Skratch/We R The Handclaps/Can I Get Get Get/Move Your Feet/Shake Me Baby/Shake Your Coconuts/Hip Hop A Lula//Trust Tissue/White Trash
