The old school with the new school covering ….the really old school? Titus Andronicus joined Yo La Tengo on stage yesterday to cover “Where Eagles Dare.” Yesterday marked the final free Sunday show at McCarren Pool. Thanks to JellyNYC for all the awesome shows over the last few years!

Even though it sucks that this will be the last summer of shows at McCarren Pool, the park and Jelly NYC are going out with a bang. Yo La Tengo and Titus Andronicus will headline the last free Sunday show on August 24th. While you are it, sign Jelly NYC’s petition to keep free shows going in NYC next summer.
Indie-pop darlings Yo La Tengo haven’t toured all that much this summer, but the group plans to make up for it by playing an intimate benefit gig on Long Island on October 19th. The SASS Foundation, The Fader Magazine, and Insound.com are sponsoring the show and all proceeds benefit cancer research and education. The show is being held at the Landmark (capacity: 425 people) on Main Street in Port Washington, Long Island. Tickets are available below:
