of Montreal Unplug Skeletal Lamping In London
There was no horse this time. Nary an orgy or fife-playing satyr. An acoustic in-store may not offer the same baroque pageantry as Friday's set at Roseland, but last night's of Montreal Rough Trade East performance did give attendees a close-up listen to -- wait -- the band's songs. Yes, remove the red body paint and gold short shorts and you not only have a nude Kevin Barnes, you also realize (again) that Skeletal Lamping's songwriting can be just as ambitious as oM's visual cluster-fuck. (Minus the possible cruelty to animals.) Watch the nubile miscreants.

Dam, can't a band try to do a little theatrics or something? Just stand there playing, how pathetic...
I figured I go ahead and start the complain train.
Score = 1
Why don't you post their Florida shows with the Fiery Furnaces? You forgot to do it the last time you posted their itinerary too.
Score = 0
Oops, no offense to Florida. Fixed.
Score = 0
there's some of us who find the music entertaining and require no "theatrics"
Score = 0
I think whistle was being sarcastic in his comment about the lack of "theatrics"
Score = 0
Thanks, Hoooot!
Yes, I was referencing the complaints all those readers had about the theatrics featured in recent posts.
