of Montreal was exactly what I expected -- silly sidetricks and gimmicks, lots of set pieces. Good band, but an odd show. Kishi Bashi came out, rocked the fuck out with instruments that I didn't think could sound like they do, manipulated feedback with his feet, got down and dirty with us, was sweating like nuts afterward ... I think he broke one of his guitars ... it was excellent. I don't think the crowd appreciated quite what they were seeing.

I just watched this and I think I see what you mean. That audience though looks absolutely rapt. Now he's definitely on my list of people to check out live.

...and I just listened to his EP and was astonished all over again. It had been too long since I heard his music.
