Want to see how a bunch of guys from Tuscon and Miami behave in the cold of Montreal in December? Well, check out the Iron & Wine | Calexico supergroup on December 8th at The Spectrum.The two bands will be coming to the area in support of their recent collaborative EP In the Reins. Both bands will play a set alone and then they'll join each other on stage for a few tunes. As a fan of both bands, it sounds like a good night of music.
The show is a little on the expensive side of indie rock shows. The cost is $30.60 Canadian which translates to about $25.70 US. However, considering that you are seeing two good bands plus hearing their collaborative work, it seems like a good deal.
If you order your tickets from the Spectrum website, be careful about what show you click on. The show is listed as Iron & Wine and then the next show listed is Canadian geezer rockers April Wine. So, with the small font, it's possible to click on the latter.

So they do a bunch of shows in Calexico's backyard but decide to skip out on Florida? Boo to that! Especially since I missed I&W's show here last spring.
