Live Report: BABYMETAL at Heavy Montréal - August 9, 2014


BABYMETAL: METAL RESISTANCE MONTRÉAL

BABYMETAL CONQUERS HEAVY MONTRÉAL

AUGUST 9, 2014

                                Facts First: Montréal ROCKS.
                                Seriously and straight up.

It’s a surprisingly old city for North America, and extremely old for Canada. Areas of Montréal go back to the 17th century. The people are both kind and amazing, and the same was true at the Heavy Montréal Festival. An enormous venue sporting four stages in total, Heavy Montréal should be experienced just for the festival itself. 

Montréal knows how to party, and in Jean Drapeau Parc August 9 & 10, 2014 the city partied hard. One of the images that remains tattooed onto my brain is that of a chaotic, if not perilous pit with a beer-tray-dude smack in the middle, tray held high over five hundred writhing bodies (conservative estimate), and beer-dude floating through magically and completely unscathed.

BABYMETAL To Play Heavy Montreal


Heavy metal teen trio, BABYMETAL, has just been added to the lineup for Heavy Montreal!  Heavy Montreal is a three day heavy metal festival boasting appearances by big names such as Slayer, Anthrax, Lamb of God and many more.  If I was these girls' mom, I'd be...terrified, frankly.  The festival takes place August 8-10 and weekend tickets are on sale now, so get 'em while they're hot!
