Apparently we need to get Wits back into rotation, as Neko Case tore the roof off Minnesota Public Radio earlier this month and few beyond the Fitzgerald Theater have yet to hear her go full metal (with the highest sung note in her repertoire in tow). Featuring comedian Rob Delaney and longtime Case collaborator/solo artist Kelly Hogan, she performed a number of sketches and musical performances on the variety show’s May 10th broadcast. For the closing portion, though, Case invoked “The Number of the Beast.” Proof that those sneakers and shirt only begin to describe her true Iron Maiden fandom begins at the 55-minute mark here or above.
