Jason Collett @ Main Hall | Pop Montreal | pics

The Most Serene Republic, New Buffalo, Apostle of Hustle, and Jason Collett played the Arts & Crafts Showcase at Main Hall in Montreal for the Pop Montreal festival on Friday September 30, 2005. It was a pretty small venue, and they weren't letting anyone else in when I got there. I could hear New Buffalo playing from the hallway/stairwell.

Determined to get in, I hung out next door at Green Room (another Pop Montreal venue) for the next two hours. By 12:30 enough people had cleared out of Main Hall. Andrew Whiteman (Apostle of Hustle) was covering a Metric song when I entered. It was Apostle's last song, but he did come back on stage later to join Jason Collett and band for a few songs. I've seen Jason perform a solo song or two at BSS shows, but wasn't sure what to expect from his own band. They were really, really good.
