Last night, the Shins kicked off their Oh, Inverted World 21st birthday tour in San Francisco at the Warfield. During the set, the band covered Stone Temple Pilots’ Purple classic “Vasoline.” Surprising choice, considering how the two acts have such distinctly different vibes — and eras, for that matter. Also, catch James Mercer reading the lyrics off of his phone. They nailed it, though.

Down: Shins' 'Port of Morrow' bogs down in studio splendor
submitted by Nick Mar 21st 2012 06:00 pm (news.yahoo.com)

The Shins: Watch The On Letterman
submitted by Nick Mar 21st 2012 02:00 pm (stereogum.com)
Last night, the Shins showed up on the Late Show With David Letterman, blasting through their world-beating single “Simple Song.” I swear that one is like a top-five Shins song at this point; I never get sick of hearing it.
