onight was my first time at the Verre Bouteille... It's a nice, relaxed atmosphere in the middle of the Plateau.
Marc-André, François and I entered the place not knowing where to go: the room was PACKED. Even more so than at the Howlin' Hound Dogs' CD launch last week if that's possible! We manage to steal Nathalie's spot as she leaves and wait for Jason Officer to return for a second set.
My first impression of Jason when he starts playing: I must be looking at a full-size picture of him and a CD player is hidden behind him... The guy plays like crazy but only his fingers move!!! No head, no facial expression, no body movement, NADA! It is very unusual because the crowd is going crazy for him...
People are cheering, screaming, standing and paying close attention to his every note. What a great guitarist he is! With his very distinctive guitar sound and soothing voice I could definitely listen to him for hours without the need to change the CD.
I just don't know how long I would watch him on t.v. if the sound was off! ; )

Mon coup de coeur de la semaine à Loft Story2: Mathieu et Etienne ont volé les biscuits d'Elisabetta... mais comme chaque fois que Mathieu essaie de se la couler douce, il s'est fait prendre par le maître du jeu!
Bon bon bon, je l'avoue je suis une accro de Loft Story! Et il me semble que cette 2e édition est encore meilleure que la 1ère... Néanmois, faut tout de même avouer qu'on s'ennuie de la Mélanie-chialeuse-nationale!
Comme vous l'avez peut-être deviné, Mathieu c'est mon préféré... je lui reconnais un p'tit côté présent dans ma famille et c'est pas sa coiffure! ;)
