It took Fabchannel about a week to post it, but the whole show is finally up.
Thanks to Dustin over at the Townhall for the link to the accompanying interview .

I didn't find out about this before, but of Montreal will be recording a special session with Manchester's Channel M this very afternoon...
More info here : Music Dash
And stay tuned there : Channel M
EDIT : of Montreal's tour manager/performance artist/doer-of-stuff Michael Wheeler just informed us that this performance had to be cancelled, actually. Apologies to Mancunian fans.

Brighton...
... is, as we all know, lovely in the Fall... (I kind of beg to differ - and my left ankle sure does - but let's not make this a personal post...) and is where London-based photographer and of Montreal fan Anika decided to spend her Saturday night. She was kind enough to give us her best shots from that night, and here they are, compiled into a nifty little slideshow, for y'all to enjoy!
It seems like the band had a great one (again!).

New Links and Interviews
Every new interview and/or article is now archived as soon as we find out about them in our interview section (that's on the left of the screen, if you're computerly-challenged and blog-clueless), but in case you're not one to check out the links and just want a quick of Montreal fix, we'll try and make this a regular feature of the blog... A "what's new this week?" kind of thing...
* Dottie's top albums of 2008
* Unashamedly high-brow publication The New Yorker tries to make sense of of Montreal.
* European interviews :
Before the anticipated Button Factory show in Dublin (who knows why the place left such a powerful imprint on the of Montreal psyche...), Irish blog [words] Sweet Oblivion [music] You posted a pretty lengthy interview of Kevin.
ClashMusic.com interviewed Kevin sometime before the Franz Ferdinand opening spot.
ITN posted a video interview of Kevin, and an acoustic performance.
As the band is trying to break into the European "market", the Booty Patrol would like to know what you peeps would think of non-English links? Il y-a-t'il des Francais parmi nous? Germans? Dutch? Italians? Poles? Danes? Spiders from Mars? Anyway, comment and let us know.

European Setlist & Settricks
As promised in December, the C.C.A.A. Booty Patrol has been working on special treats for their European audience and are putting on their most elaborate show ever on this side of the big pond. Or the other side of the big pond, depending on where you stand.
Among the different things that American fans haven't seen yet (and quite possibly won't get to see, ha, see how it feels?), a handful of new outfits (including the pretty amazing Smoking Caveman - which I'm afraid will get PETA quite angry with the band again as this fur looks quite real to me), a skit involving body socks, a newly appointed Cardinal delivering blessings, a satyr with a red pentagram painted on his chest, and some new videos (including a psychedelic Jesus on the cross animation which I had never seen before).
As for the music (let's not forget about it), the setlist has been quite heavily reworked and doesn't focus as much on Skeletal Lamping material. Encores usually consist in a smorgasbord of covers.
Smoking Caveman :
The band has just finished their 3-day tour of the Benelux, and are now giving it to England, Scotland and Ireland, before a final 3-day Tour de France. See our tour dates section for exact location, and click on the links to find out if you can still score some tickets.
