Music is cool. Live bands are fun. Summer concerts are nice. Once thing I've learned is life is more fun when you raise the stakes. If one wants to watch a concert on a tiny island (easily accessible by the Metro) on the Saint Lawrence where the backdrop is the cityscape of Centre-Ville (Downtown Montreal) then this is your spot. And this spot is legend.
I caught Radiohead here do what they do best in 2003. It was one of the more majestic experiences of my life. This experience was nearly marred by a skanky pre-packaged Quebecois ham sandwich which featured some rotten mayo. Good thing that tragedy didn't kick in until after the concert at the club. I puked about eight times that night at Stereo. It was still an outstanding night.
I want to go back to Parc Jean-Drapeau.
