So, Le Tricolore, you'll be effin thrilled to learned that The National is actually in fact coming to Montreal this summer! July 31th to Osheaga festival along with Arcade Fire and Keane! I CANNOT WAIT. NEVER SAW THEM LIVE.

ouache. too many hipsters.

**Le Tricolore** · 03-23-2010, 10:08 PM

heh, I made a post about this in the entertainment forum.

The Saturday is ****ING INCREDIBLE.

The National, Stars, Gaslight Anthem, Keane... too bad that Metric are the only good band on Sunday.

Ceux de Montreal · 03-23-2010, 10:13 PM

Stars are there too? I read The National and stopped reading cause I thought it's all I'd care. Wow! They are two of my favorite band. Where can I buy tickets? I'm so excited

Clumsyhab · 03-23-2010, 10:23 PM

Great line-up but I've never been a fan of outfdoor shows.

Heh, you're the only person I know who'd rather go Sunday.

Let me know how Metric are.

it's awesome that Arcade Fire are playing Osheaga, but i'm really hoping for a proper tour... i camped out outside of l'Oblique in the middle of winter a few years ago for a ticket to one of their shows at the Ukranian Federation - it was quite an intense experience, but totally worth it!!!

HarlemsFinest · 03-24-2010, 03:54 AM

have they put anything out since neon bible?

I've seen Gaslight twice. Great band. They just released the first single off their upcoming release. Cant wait for the album. Will be at Osheaga for them and for Frank Turner.

**waffledave** · 03-24-2010, 09:18 AM

Already bought my tickets. Looks to be a good lineup as always. Last year was a blast, except Saturday was so packed it took hours to get home. I ended up walking the entire way back downtown.

Iwishihadacup · 03-24-2010, 09:23 AM

Don't forget Weezer

Don't ever forget Weezer

I hope I'll be able to go

Ceux de Montreal · 03-24-2010, 12:04 PM

Yes Weezer makes very good music too! I never been there. I'm excited.

Turtleneck Plek · 03-24-2010, 12:07 PM

Hipster music.

Jedrik · 03-24-2010, 02:05 PM

I love Arcade Fire and The National (sounds like both are releasing albums in time for the festival). I was actually just looking this week into going elsewhere to see The National in June (maybe Boston) and the next day Osheaga was announced -- pretty psyched.

New National single. OH ****, SON!

The saturday lineup looks pretty good with the Arcade Fire and the Gaslight anthem

MXD · 03-24-2010, 05:25 PM

Jon Spencer Blues Explosion FTW!

Ceux de Montreal · 05-25-2010, 09:51 PM

Sonic Youth have been added to the lineup

Sunday's line-up of Weezer, Cat Empire and The Black Keys is pretty damn good.

Metric is so good. I have discovered them when I saw their name, for the first time, on Osheaga's lineup. If everything goes as planned, I will see them three times in minimal times: at Woodstock en Beauce, at Osheaga and then at Muse, on October 21 in Québec City. I was listening to their MySpace at the moment, actually. Thrilled. I wondered if their album is worth picking up?

Not fond of Weezer but they make good music. Can't get into Cat Empire much. But on sunday, look out for We Are Wolves. I really like their music! I bought their most recent album and its awesome. The sweetheart diva in me will be looking forward to see Ariane Moffat, too. What? She's cute.

**Le Tricolore** · 05-29-2010, 09:06 PM

Gaslight Anthem have been moved from the Saturday to the Sunday.

Weaksauce.

Habsolument · 07-25-2010, 11:28 PM

Considering the festival is a week away.

*BUMP*

I'm stoked, the lineup is ridiculous. Arcade Fire, Metric, Weezer, The Black Keys, Sonic Youth, The Gaslight Anthem, We Are Wolves, Cage The Elephant, Major Lazer, Deadmau5, etc.

Hell, even Snoop Dogg is there
