See Vous Play

October 2, 2006 10:38 AM

See Vous Play -- Well, yesterday, as some of you may have heard was National Music Day, in Canada at the very least. In celebration of this CBC Radio 3 and it's French-Canadian hot cousin Bande A Part hosted the See Vous Play bilingual concert in Canada's centre of the universe, Toronto. On the bill were Les Breastfeeders, Emily Haines & the Soft Skeleton, Les Trois Accordes, and the incomparable Joel Plaskett Emergency Band. If you missed last night's broadcast, you can hear everything that went down here.

I'm a bad Canadian.
I totally didn't know about this.

Who is Vous, and why would I want to see them play?
Qui est You et pourqoui voulais-je les voir jouer?

C'est quelques choses qu'on aurait besoin d'un matrise de franglais pour comprendre?

I went, but had to leave before Joel came on... getting onstage at 11:45 is too late for a Sunday night show, especially when it's way out at KoolHaus.
