Instead of Playing Music, Yo La Tengo Performs an Entire Seinfeld Episode
The band then left for a minute and came back on stage with scripts in hand and acted out the entire “Chinese Restaurant” episode of Seinfeld — all 22 minutes of it. Ira was Jerry, Georgia was Elaine and James was George. The stagehands did the other characters.
It was nuts. The crowd was largely with it for about 8 or 9 minutes, but at some point they realized that they were going to have to watch the whole thing and they completely turned on them. Someone would shout, “Play some songs!” and other people would clap. There was a lot of stomping to drown them out.
