This was pretty much the vibe last night at toronto's summerworks. After playing a set with Laura Barrett (best of the best) and improving set change soap opera music, i witnessed Istvan Kantor doing his thing - legendary (?) torontite performance artist - basically blood and fire and girls with nazi outfits and QUEEN WEST IS DEAD signs and REVOLUTION and what sounded like really cutting edge industrial noise from 1993 - all for a rapidly filing out crowd that had largely come for the comedy. . . in short, an amazing night.
