Picture this: In a pocket of stone stage and archway, in a park full of greenery and sun at a busy corner of St Laurent, mid-Montreal, crowds gather carrying trumpets and violins. The stage is crowded with over 15 legendary musicians. The park is transformed into a beer tent and the Indyish are converging […]

Last night, I headed over to Casa del Popolo to have a quiet evening and watch 2 bands I really enjoy: Elfin Saddle and The Winks. I’ve already talked about both of them, so instead of repeating myself, here are some photos! Sadly, after a few attempts at getting a decent photo during Elfin […]

I just got a cute little message from the Winks’ Todd and I thought I would share it for a few simple little reasons. Firstly, two of my favorite bands will be performing (so Elfin Saddle and the Winks) and because discovering new goodies is always fun. While I don’t know much about the Secret […]

Quick reminder! The Winks and Ok Giraffe are playing together tonight at an all-mustache show. Whether you’re going to be attending the party or just hanging out at home, you should probably do some upper-lip dress-up just to share in the mood. Need ideas? This from the cute write-up they got about it in the […]

How do you do? I thought I’d turn to the world wide web and ask you Montrealers something. I’m doing a photoshoot with Sister Suvi on Saturday and I’m looking for a sweet livingroom or alley way or field to take photos in and am hoping for some suggestions. If you have a photo or […]

Oh boy! I’ve finally settled into my new place and have been living internet-free for the past few days. It’s quite something, let me tell you! So here I am, at good ol’ Battlenet 24, listening to the sounds of intense war games and the cheering of a full (fake) hockey stadium, uploading photo after […]

Oh, yes hi the internet! I’ve been taking a break from the computer. Mainly because I had to (laser eye surgery left me blind for a few days) but it was quite a nice rest. I say rest, I mean sleeping something like 15 hours a day. Hey, what else are you going to do […]

After getting completely wrapped up in the Fringe last weekend, it was particularly painful to emerge from the poster-slathered cocoon of the beer tent and spend the last 3 days at work. I’m extra relieved to get back to my 11-5 info-booth post and I’m excited about the FREE OUTDOOR MUSIC which will keep […]

Tuesday nights are usually reserved for late nights at school for yours truly, but last week, I could not bring myself to miss the show at Green Room. I saw Wolf Parade’s Dan Boeckner and his fiancé Alexei Perry’s Handome Furs last summer at club Lambi in front of a much smaller crowd and despite […]
