We spent the weekend up in Montreal where we caught some of the many shows at the Jazz Fest. If you've never been, here's what you're missing:
That's Marsh Dondurma from Israel - a friend of ours has a cousin in the band. Below the fold, I posted a couple of other clips from that same set.
Another band worth mentioning to you is Nomo. I wasn't able to record 'em due to the lack of memory in my camera and the level of alcohol in my blood - here's a vid from Youtube:
And you might be wondering, what type of person goes to the Montreal Jazzfest? Here's some examples:
As the day turn to night we set out to eat & drink on St Denis and then on St Lawrence ... it was all a big haze ... we capped off the night at 3AM with a trip to Fairmount for bagels, the best in the world ... I miss Montreal.
Over all a great weekend. Now I just need a two day vacation to recover from the trip.

I was in Montreal just before the jazz fest. I wish we had been able to see it!
I work in an RNA lab here in Montreal, so I made frequent trips to Place des Arts. I must say, those pictures are great, but I don't think any pictures can quite do that crowd justice; Montreal's craziness is a multisensorial experience.
