Saigon Sunday

Awesome dance moves from the vocalist of Toronto band Blue Peter:



These guys did a reunion show with fellow T.O. band The Spoons a couple years ago. I was there, it wasn't too bad.



Now if all three of these bands got together, that would be about all of the 1980s that one venue could handle. There might be a nostaliga explosion...



Interestingly, the drummer for IIV also played drums for Skinny Puppy... which is interesting, because it reminds you that the gap between a new wave band and an industrial band is a lot slimmer than you think. Throw in some minor keys, a few tweaks of a keyboard, distorted vocals, poignant sampling, ba-da-bing. Industrial band. Don't remind hardcore industrial heads about this fact though, they will deny it, and say there's a lot more too it than that.
