Athens based Of Montreal have become an increasingly popular staple on the idie rock scene. Their performances are always over the top; this particular show included a wedding dress worn by singer Kevin Barnes and a snipet of "The Final Countdown." Although they project a faceless image on their albums and videos, this is a band that is enticing to the eyes as well as the ears on stage, and one of the larger drawing bands to regularly play at the eagle. Included below are shots from soundcheck and the show. Marbles, formerlly of Apples in Stereo, opened the show.
