Sinister: montreal

[Joanne Hill]

I think Boy With the Arab Strap would be a good album to buy for a cool mum, 
since she likes the eponymously named single and will therefore have a 
starting point, a point of reference. The first B&S songs I knowingly heard 
(because I must have heard others before, but hadn't known who they were by, 
or really listened very hard) were probably Women's Realm and The Model, 
which I fell in love with and I've rated Fold Your Hands Child above all the 
others, and above every cd I own, ever since. I expect very few of you 
agree. I feel very comfortable with that album, its like comfort food, cept 
its a comfort cd, put it on when feeling lonely and be able to snuggle up 
with the songs, you feel at home and relaxed. Something that feels very 
familiar. Fold Your Hands Child is my comfort cd. I probably have others too 
but can't think of any. My boyfriend has just said his comfort cds are 
anything by Lambchop and 'Parsley Sage Rosemary and Thyme', Simon and 
Garfunkel. I don't agree with him. They would be my torture cds, 
anti-comfort.

The main reason for my post is - I'm traveling up to Montreal in a few weeks 
for about 5 days and I wondered if any helpful people could give me advice 
on where to go. Cool bars and stuff like that. Thank you!

Joanne xx
