Last night, after sets from Nick Cave and Café Tacvba, Yeah Yeah Yeahs played to a rapt audience at Stubb's outdoor stage for NPR's SXSW showcase. Sporting a bedazzled, bright yellow suit, one neon green glove, and a headlamp, Karen O led the band through a raucous 12-song set that included four cuts from the forthcoming Mosquito: "Under The Earth," "Subway," the title track, and first single "Sacrilege." See the full performance and setlist below, and check out photos above.
