Girl Problems Presents Lights Are Flashing


Osheaga (Montreal) Recap

Another Osheaga has come and gone.
With it go a slew of AA clad barely legals, shirtless fest bros, and over priced booze.
Happily it was the best Osheaga line up to date.

Sunday

Highlights:
Iggy & The Stooges playing 1969 and making me feel like I was back in highschool.
The Duchess Says mudfight.
Sebastien Tellier looking impossibly cool.

Surprise of the the day:
Spiritualized were great live! Don’t let their recorded stuff fool you

Best of Fest (Sunday): Sebastian Tellier (though Iggy is a close second)

Monday

Highlights:
The Kills both kicking ass AND taking names.
Broken Social Scene‘s scream session.
Gogol Bordello‘s on-stage circus.

Suprise of the the day:
Gogol Bordello are WAY more fun live. Go see them!

Best of Fest (Monday): The Kills

Normally I’d have pictures and whatnot but the ftp site is being lame.
For now, enjoy this photo of Gogol Bordello taken by Midnight Poutine‘s lovely Jenny.
