I'm almost crying I haven't been there. Oh yes, if you always get up late you'll never be on time.
Considering 11-track-long sets, I could hardly imagine a better one (don't forget we're in 2004). Shampoo Suicide, Backyards, Looks Just Like The Sun and Pacific Theme live?! What is more, classics like Stars and Sons, Cause = Time and KC Accidental...WHAW!

03 - KC Accidental
04 - Stars and Sons
05 - Cause = Time

Broken Social Scene - 2005-05-27 Primaverasound, Barcelona

Letting Broken Social Scene play only half an hour long sets should be a crime (radio shows would be the only exception:)). Anyway, enjoy this.

03 - Ibi Dreams of Pavement (A Better Day)
04 - Fire Eye'd Boy

Broken Social Scene + The Most Serene Republic 2005-12-16 La Maroquinerie, Paris

*
!!!WooHoo! This is the 21st post, whoo-hey, canaddiction is an adult! Yo!!!
*
As an addict to little gigs I mustn't forget to post this gig. Really, there were about 300 people at this show in Paris. That's the crazy thing about Europe: they don't come very often here :/ but when they finally come, it's a great great evening for the chosen few. I know...they deserve more people (even here) at their gigs, but, I can't help it, I absolutely adore these smaller ones.
This time they also had Leslie Feist onstage and The Most Serene Republic, another Arts&Crafts family member, as the opening band (btw highly recommended).

Broken Social Scene Presents: Kevin Drew - 2007-11-18, 9:30 Club, Washington DC

photo by Joel Didriksen for kingpinphoto.com

Whoaaaaaa, a REALLY new stuff is what I've got for you today, as fresh as it goes.

What a Sunday, definitely not silent nor gray (no no kids, this is not turning into a Morrissey blog, no fear:). Just try to listen to the beginning of Lover's Spit and you'll see why I started like this. And when you're listening to this wonderful song, wait till it ends and please tell me what Kevin's singing at the very end of it. I'm trying to figure it out but I'm not really sure about it and I won't sleep before I find out :). There are more more things that just have to make you smile, like deciding where to continue playing Cause = Time after the power failure (ladies and gentlemen, this is the unique chance to hear BSS SINGING five notes of the solo, lol:))

I saw the guys in Vienna a month ago so this bootleg is all the more precious to me, I'm ssssooo very happy I've got this!
The guys are as cute as then, but the setlist is a bit different, we had Bodhi Sappy Weekend, Gang Bang Suicide (the very last song) and Hit The Wall from Brendan Canning's forthcoming album (he told us it's gonna be released in April 2008, wooo, I can't wait! The first song is stunning!) instead of It's All Gonna Break and the two covers (woooo, this is the battle of the indie rock bands!). Well (weeeeeeeeell!), I should stop talking, enjoy all this straight from them and discover more awwww-this-is-greaat moments.

You can listen to it here (haha, don't forget to read the advisory:).

Of course we won't leave you without a download link.
There you go, folks:
part 1
part 2

Setlist:

01 - Lucky Ones
02 - Cause = Time
03 - Fucked Up Kid
04 - Safety Bricks
05 - tbtf
06 - Stars and Sons
07 - Frightening Lives
08 - Backed Out On The ...
09 - Superconnected
10 - Hard to Find (American Analog Set, Andrew Kenny singing)
11 - Farewell To The Pressure Kids
12 - Major Label Debut (fast)
13 - Kennel District (Pavement cover)
14 - Feel The Pain (Dinosaur Jr. cover)
15 - Lover's Spit
16 - It's All Gonna Break
17 - When It Begins
