# c/o pop 2012: Editor’s Choice
It goes without saying that, if you're attending Cologne's **[c/o pop
festival][1]{: target="_blank"}**, you're gonna be seeing our excellent
[Touch Yello performance][2]{: target="_blank"} -- last tickets
available [here][3]{: target="_blank"}. It's *virtually* (see what we
did there?) the coolest thing to see that features Yello, unless you
count an amazing dream one of our editors had last weekend....that was a
*heck* of a show, at least according to him. But what else are you going
to see? There's plenty of options, but we've gathered our five must-see
performances for your perusal -- take a look, mark your calendars, and
see you soon (we hope!)
1\. **Soap&Skin**
Beautifully dark orchestral pop that's as unsettling as it is catchy.
This is the kind of live show that makes your emotions surge.
2\. **Light Asylum**
The NYC goth destroyas have been taking Europe by storm lately thanks to
frequent tours; if you haven't seen their powerful, dancefloor-killing
live show yet, then now's the time.
3\. **Dillon**
There's a reason [Dillon][4]{: target="_blank"} was an EB covergirl:
she's absolutely charming live.
4\. **Prinzhorn Dance School**
We don't usually go in for the more 'polite' forms of post-punk, but
this UK duo have won us over with their latest LP *Clay Class*. We're
very much looking forward to seeing them in person!
5\. **La Femme**
Surfy proto-punk done by models. Lovely to see, lovely to hear, and hey,
it's summer!
