The only thing that had anything to do with being 'negative' about last night's show was the METZ track, "Negative Space"...I tried pretty hard to make that statement witty, and I realize the failure of it- but, there it is.They sounded fantastic. METZ rules Toronto. And so did that new song they played! NEW SONGS MEAN NEW RECORDS.
NOMEANSNO were straight-jacket-and-padded-room style insane. SO seriously tight and talented. And those dudes are OLD. They're like a weird version of what Captain Beefheart would have thought punk "should have" been. One of the most amazing late 70's Canadian post/pre hardcore psych prog punk fucked up bands ever.
And the debate after the show between Daragh and Justin at the Vic about Dead Moon vs. Nomeansno was another highlight.
