Right around the time that Blue’s Fest was on, we found out about another festival in Montreal called Osheaga. Checking the line-up, I saw, much to my delight, Peter Bjorn and John were set to play. Tickets were purchased as soon as we could get them.
Here it is, the week of the festival, and Peter Bjorn and John are no longer on the list. Checking the bands site, both Canadian appearances have been cancelled. Turns out, MTV has put them in the running for Best New Artist, and the show is this weekend so the band decided to go there instead.
Thanks, now I have no reason to go? Arctic Monkeys? Smashing Pumpkins? Who the hell are these people?
