Once again I ended up in a show of a band I had never heard about. Yes. Belive it or not I had never heard of Of Montreal in my life and what I can say is What a Show! This guys have an amazing ensemble going on. We counted 12 musicians on the stage and they all played amazing. The theatricality of it and also all the characters, dancers, and the staging of every song. This guys know how to put on a show (sorry MGMT).

By the end of the show they played Thriller and the place went crazy. This guys are totally worth watching and as far as I can say it was the best accident of the weekend. The show was sold out on Saturday and it seems that on Sunday too. What I can say is that every song of them has something interesting to say about them. Also I was wondering who comes up with the ideas for every song? Do they have a creative director? Who says what it goes and what not during the rehearsals? Wow... This has been one of the coolest shows Ive been to this year. Kudos to Athens GA for showing to the world they've got awesome things going on.
