--- Quote from: sjbrot ---I went to the Montreal show last night too.

It was really cool to see Calder and Newman perform "Streets of Fire" (one of Bejar's tracks) with the acoustic guitar and piano from the studio being replaced by a steady electric guitar.

In my opinion, they blew Belle & Sebastian off the stage. But that might just be representitive of my own loyalties.

Woops, I meant to say "the night before last". I saw them in Toronto. Sadly, I've never been to Montreal :(

However, I think "Streets of Fire" was one of my favourite parts of the show too. And I definitely agree that they rocked Belle & Sebastian off the stage.

Chingyul:
Late report.
Thought it was a great show.  In Calgary, drummer got a refill halfway thought.  Novillero was good, but I missed the beginning since I was late.

Took some pics: Noisy since I was shooting ISO 400.  Oh, and full size pictures.  ~1mb

Not only would he fail at the drum stick toss, but he would snarl at the drum stick afterwards. Plus, he would play his drum sticks until well after splinters started flying in the air.

That show was just great, and yeah Dahle made the show totally worth it. I agree about Belle and Sebastian being outstaged, but I think for me it was due to fatigue and that asshole who kept screaming bullshit at the band.
