Malcolm and I went to the OSHEAGA Music Festival in Montreal, NS. The music festival took place on July 31st and August 1st, 2010. The line-up included Arcade Fire, Metric, The National, Weezer, Keane, K'Naan, Snoop Dogg, Sonic Youth, Pavement, The Cat Empire, The Black Keys, Stars, Jimmy Cliff, The Gaslight Anthem, Charlie Winston, Owen Pallett, Sarah Harmer, Jamie Lidell, Robyn, and many more!
Arcade Fire, Metric, and The National are three of my very favourite modern bands, and I was able to see them all in one weekend!
When I first found out that Arcade Fire would be playing at Osheaga, I was a wee bit sceptical of the news. After six years of listening to this band over and over again, marveling at youtube videos, looking up concert venues and dates, and being more than lightly obsessed with them, my dream of seing them live came true. Not only that, but we saw them in the very first/front row!! And what a show it was - it was magical... it was (literally) amazing... and it was all that I hoped it would be, and more! What a ridiculously amazing band!
