Of Montreal was for us the show of the year. Its tough to know where to start with this band. They showed a propensiitiy to continually top themselves. Musically, it was a great show. They played all their hits and even did a Franz Ferdinand cover (Take Me Out) for the encore. However, Of Montreal was much more than that. Kevin Barnes, and his alter-ego Georgie Fruit, is up there with the greatest showmen of our times. His many costumes always seemed to themselves (our favriotes were Cardinal and covered in shaving cream). The rest of the band proved quite eccentric charchters themselves. Its tough to truly describe the experience, but we will just say that by the end when men with pig masks on and carrying tubes shooting out feathers, it actually seemed to make sense.
