LIVE: Does It Offend You, Yeah? @ Slim's Bar in San Francisco

This past weekend, UK's newest electro punks DOES IT OFFEND YOU, YEAH? performed an opening gig for the hip hop duo YO MAJESTY! The show took place at Slim's bar in downtown San Francisco. You probably weren't there. Luckily, Badical Beats was there, and took some pics of the madness that is DOES IT OFFEND YOU, YEAH?! Fresh out of the Coachella desert, the SF stop was just the 4th date on the 20+ date tour. The opening slot only allowed for a 7 song set, but DIOYY? proved to make the best of their time banging out hits "Battle Royale", "Let's Make Out", "Doomed Now", and "We Are Rockstars"(during which kids mobbed the stage and danced, leaving the band with very little room to play). DIOYY? also killed it with an unreleased track that is a steady player in their live repertoire. The trek with YO MAJESTY finishes up May 17th, then its off to Europe for some festival appearances, back to the states at the end of July for a handful of shows supporting BLOC PARTY, two dates in Tokyo at Summer Sonic, then four dates with NIN! We're not offended, but we certainly are jealous!
