Pop Montreal has arrived and with
that there are many amazing shows to see if you are in the Montreal area.
For instance,
Li'l Andy & Karaoke Cowboy
are playing tonight at a quaint place called
Cinema
L'Amour - the city's only "Yiddish-theatre-turned-porn-palace", established in 1914.
Li'l Andy will be performing with
Ideal Lovers, bringing
their interpretation of
Neil Young's album
Tonight's the Night to the
legendary erotic movie theatre. When Li'l Andy was young, he bought a used cassette of
Tonight's the Night for a
charming $5.99. Quickly learning all the songs, he vowed to one day put on a show where
he'd perform the entire album from beginning to end. This is a "pre-teen dream come true" says Li'l
Andy.
So check out some of Pop Montreal's finest
musicians and legendary venues, such as
our sponsored event with
Wintersleep, Bonjour Brumaire, and
The Buttless Chaps.
To hear about some other hot events, tune in today at 4pm,
when
Lisa Christiansen talks to
Tariq Hussain,
who's in Montreal right now getting ready to hit the festivities.
