It’s pretty hard not to get excited when you hear the names Pat Mahoney & James Murphy especially when it is followed by the words DJ Set. If you are a huge fan of LCD Soundsystem or just like of Punk/Funk/Disco you can be sure to expect a musical journey of jems and rareities all on vinyl. For any aspiring DJ or music aficionado you just want to find out every track and hit up every used vinyl shop the next day. So you can literally kill yourself trying to Shazam every track or you can what you’re supposed to do when they man the decks: drink dance, drink and dance, dance & dance!!
You can catch the two when they play at the intimate venue L’Olympia on July 30th, 2011 for the MEG Festival. Tickets are $30 and you can pick them up online here. In addition to putting one of the best shows this Summer the awesome people at MEG Montreal gave us a couple of tickets to giveaway. To win a pair follow us on Twitter @ilovemontreal and tweet “I<3DISCO & I wanna win tickets to see Pat Mahoney & James Murphy from @Ilovemontreal !!

Can’t Stop..Won’t Stop!! And 10 years to prove it! To conclude it’s 10 year Anniversary Celebrations, the Place D’Armes Hotel & Suites have collaborated with everybody’s favorite Montreal Designer, Denis Gagnon. Also sharing his 10 years of design, Denis Gagnon is at it again and this time offers his talent to one of the infamous establishments of Old Montreal’s Antonopoulos Group.
As of July 2011, Denis has delicately created the new uniforms that will be worn by the front desk personnel of the Place D’Armes hotel. The concierges, receptionists, and valets will all be adorned in black and white outfits that display simplicity and sophistication all wrapped up in a unique touch of designer couture. Using his signature zipper detail, the typical mens blazer has been tweeked to show style and stature. For the women, refinement and sophistication takes on a new form with a disctinctive scarf that will surely grab anyone’s attention. Without a doubt, Denis illustrates that clothing is everything and first impressions are meant to last forever. This partnership is another brilliant way to showcase our local city talent in a new light. The everlasting beauty of the Place D’Armes hotel pairs with fashion and design like fine wine. A great way to celebrate 10 years of success!
The Antonopoulos Group, a close knit family run business, employs more than 600 people in their 13 establishments of hotel, bar, restaurant and spa holdings located in Old Montreal. These include: Auberge du Vieux-Port, Narcisse Bistro + Bar a Vin, Terasse de l’Auberge du Vieux-Port, Lofts du Vieux-Port, Hotel Nelligan, Verses Restaurant, Mechant Boeuf Bar & Brasserie, Terasse Nelligan, Le Place D’Armes Hotel & Suites, Aix Cuisine du Terroir, Suite 701, Terasse 701, Le Petit Hotel, Galianos, Modavie Restaurant Wine Bar and Vieux Port Steakhouse.

Our close friend Antoine Tavaglione from has been very busy these days in the art world. After the success from his politically driven/tongue & cheek first exhibit (80% of the pieces sold) last year titled: CHE VU?” (meaning: what do you want? in italian dialect) Antoine aka Tava is back with a new exhibit: Dirty Does It. This time Tava parodies pop culture from the 50’s, sports to a famous a famous animation studio (you know the one that has the mouse that rhymes with Dickey) but still with his tongue planted firmly on his cheek (think Andy Warhol if he was making art using illustrator).
Being one of our close friends you know were are going to say don’t miss the vernisage at Galerie Espace on August 11th starting at 5pm. The exhibit will be on display from August 10th – 16th (12pm – 9pm). See there!
