No Age | Coming to Montreal | Nov 22

No Age, purveyors of one of the best albums of the year are hitting Montreal for the second time this year. The show will be at Theatre Plaza on Nov 22 (yes, it's a Saturday night show; no exuses). I'll be missing the show because we have ten friends visiting that weekend but I was lucky to catch their show at La Sala Rossa back in July.

Here are some shots from that show.

No Age didn't hit the stage until after 12:30 because they had gotten stopped at the border. Throughout the show, they kept repeating sarcastically that everyone should feel very safe with the way that the border agents are scrutinizing indie rock bands.

Prior to the show I wonder if they'd be able to reproduce their studio sound live. I didn't know how much of it was post-production magic. However, when I saw this board of pedals at the guitarist Randy Randall's feet, I knew we'd be in for a whirlwind of fuzz.

Good show. At one point, in the middle of a song, Randall threw his guitar guitar across Dean Spunt's drum kit as Spunt kept drumming; just slamming his right-hand stick into the guitar. Make the trip for the show. It's worth it.

According to the promoter (Blue Skies Turn Black) the No Age venue is Club Lambi

I could be wrong though.

Hmmm.weird. No Age's myspace site says Theatre Plaza and neither Club Lambi's nor Theatre Plaza's sites mention the show. Perhaps an email to Blue Skies Turn Black will straighten it out. If I find anything, I'll update the post.

Thanks for the tip.
