This Week in Montreal
While a lot of us are still coming down from the high experienced last night from Arcade Fire winning the award for Album of the Year at the Grammy Awards, it’s time to get back to reality and take a look at what’s on the live music agenda for this week in Montreal.

Fool’s Gold – Le Belmont – Tuesday, July 20th, 2010
I believe that everybody can agree with the fact that set times are a pain in the behind. It is an unwritten rule amongst concert goers that if a show is to start at a certain time, chances are that it will probably start later. Much later. Bands are hardly ever punctual.

Although I arrived forty-five minutes late, and although all the members of Fool’s Gold were accounted for, the opening band had not even showed up yet! So I set out to buy some gum and let time pass a bit. Read more…
