Imogen Heap is the bizzomb & bagel injuries

Yes, it is true. Imogen Heap rocks much. Her rockingness holds no bounds.
The coolest vegan and I went to see her on Tuesday @ The Metropolis...this is the second time we've seen her. One great thing is that Imogen never does the same thing twice. While the songs may have been the same, she has a new spin on them everytime. She also has a knack for choosing the coolest opening acts.
Last time it was Zoe Keating - a cellist. Totally awesome. When she joined imogen on stage during her songs, it made for a kinda softer/more mellow feel.
This time there was Levi Weaver and Kid Beyond.
Levi is kinda like alternative/folk rock. Nice stuff...he has a good sense of humor...although kinda morbid at some times (when he was introducing his last song, he was sayin how he was driving his car, and he was joking bout how in england they call flashers something else...in anycase, he said he turned on the wrong one, and then a truck hit his car. His bro was in the passenger seat and he died. So he dedicated the song to him. But it's like, everyone's hahaha...then whoa...that sucks <_<).

Now Kid Beyond. Holy crapola. It's like his has a drum machine in his mouth. This dude is sic. I mean I don't typically listen to that kinda stuff often...but we were just amazed. On his site he has a clip of how he does the stuff, and there's also a clip on youtube of him doing a cover of Portishead's Heads - Wandering Star .
Imogen Heap came on around 9:15 pm. She had a live band this time (not only her parrot - aka her keyboard/looper). There was a drummer, bassist and her schnazzy new transparent and white piano. She was wearing a pink corset and a pink floofy skirt...funky hair as usual. Same quirky sense of humor.
She played (in no particular order):

• Headlock
• Goodnight and Go
• Have you got it in you
• Speeding Cars
• Clear the Area
• Daylight Robbery
• The Walk
• Just for now
• Closing In
• The moment I said it
• Hide and Seek
• Let go
• and another song from her first album...but I forgot the name. All she said was she never played it in the USA or Canada before.
  

Hide and Seek gave me shivers!
She collaborated with Levi and Kid for some songs...truely amazing. Kid's doing all these technoish sounds just with his mouth. Levi's guitar added some cool stuff to the songs.

Also, this is probably one of the first times that I wasn't in the crowd (on floor) at a concert (at least at the metropolis. Not counting the bell center because it's huge...I don't wanna be on floor there because if you have to pee you'll lose your place/hard to get back in). It's a totally different feeling. For one, it's less crowded/sweaty. We wandered around a few times to find better spots. Secondly, my ears weren't ringing...which is always good. I think for that night it was appropriate since I was pretty tired. In anycase, both are enjoyable.

I do not have pics of this event...will possibly have video later. The cool one took a few clips during the show for her sis. I'll see if I can get them lata.

If imogen comes again, you guys should totally go. Worth it!

Also, another that happened that day - I was wounded by a bagel during the vegan cheese hunt. Not the softies from montreal bagel mind you. I went to an Eastern European store called Bucarest. It's on Decarie just south of queen mary. They have these cool little round, dry bagels on a string. If you want you can wear it as a necklace and eat them off of there. Instead I decided to break them off. Whilst in the process of breaking one...it scraped my index and middle finger. I didn't realize this till bout 5 mins later. Then I told my friend "my god man, the bagel wounded me. I'm bleeding"
"Deadly bagel!"
So if you happen to have these, you can use them as a weapon. Muahaha. You can either
1) Throw the bagel necklace at the person offending you
2) break one in half and scrape them multiple times
3) whatever else you can think of doing with bagels

The best thing to do though is to eat them. They're quite yummy.
Anyways, that's enough for now.

Adios.
