Yo La Tengo is once again doing Hanukkah just right, here’s the scoop in their own words:
“We’re writing to let you know that once again we’ll be performing all 8 nights of Hanukkah at Maxwell’s in Hoboken. This year, just to make it extra crazy, Hanukkah begins on December 25 and continues through January 1. If you’ve never attended one of our Hanukkah shows before, you’ll surely want to blow off your families and rectify that situation. Each night there will be a band and a comedian and a set by us, and maybe more.
“Tickets will go on sale Wednesday November 9. Tickets can be purchased by going to Tunes in Hoboken (225 Washington St.) or Other Music in New York (15. E. 4th St.). Or you can purchase tickets on line here.
Tickets will be $20 per night, with the exception of New Year’s Eve, which will be $30. All shows will be all-ages, with the exception of New Year’s Eve, which will be 21+. As usual, we’ll be donating the proceeds to charity, and no, we don’t know which ones yet.
