Re: 12-Aug-09 The Metropolis, Montreal, Canada
just got back from montreal.
fantastic show!—and TOTALLY different than the toronto show. different tracks different light show, different crowd, sound, style of venue—totally different vibe all together.
i have to say, being familiar with most of the 'recent' shows, is it possible that this was their best show to date? played a bunch of tracks that (from what i remember) aren't 'usually' played live. the toronto show seemed like a more 'typical' show but the montreal show was hmmm, how should i put it?—perfect?
(well, would have been if they'd played dark train.)
crowd was smaller in montreal (a bit disappointing) but there was tons of room for dancing (where was everyone anyway?)
a couple of good moments—karl messing up the lyrics to born slippy and rick having to correct him and help him along—classic. karl seemingly not pleased with how much the crowd was into it, decided to help us along and boy did it work, he really poured himself out last night.
the charlie's angels pose at the end was a bit corny but good fun. such positive energy.
