The Yeah Yeah Yeahs threw one hell of a party last night on the AMD Stage at ACL. Karen O came out dressed in what looked like a giant hipster Snuggie, her head and face mostly obscured by its fabric, while the stage itself housed an enormous eyeball and at least a metric ton of blue glitter.

​One of the highlights was Karen O enthusiastically spitting water into the air at least a couple of times during the show.

​The crowd seemed to love it, too.

Between the giant all-seeing eye, the fountain-like water spitting (although it's a step up from the more traditional beer-spitting) and the costume changes that included a face mask eerily reminiscent of the Jigsaw mask from the Saw movies, the Yeah Yeah Yeahs put on one hell of a show last night.
