Shows I want to see, seeking company (help?)

[pphaneuf]

Ok, so I've got this bunch of shows I want to go to, but going all by myself is kind of sad (although I've done that a few times in Toulouse, and it was the source of just about an equal number of crazy adventures!)... Anyone care to join me (or is already going) to any of those? The links are to the Last.fm event page, with samples of the music and further details:

• The Planet Smashers (February 13)
  
• Festival Montréal en Lumière: Nuit Blanche à Montreal (February 28)
  
• ...And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead (March 3)
  
• Bloc Party (March 18)
  
• The Presets (April 5)
  
• Ladytron and The Faint (April 7)
  
• MSTRKRFT (April 11)
  
• Peter Bjorn and John (April 27)
  
• Animal Collective (May 15)
  
• Festival Kinetik 2.0 (May 17)

I'm sure there's already people intending to do the Nuit Blanche, I'm just hoping to slip in a visit to the Metropolis in there. I'm also rather keen on the Trail of Dead show, since it's at La Sala Rossa, and I've been missing that venue something fierce.

Finally, if there are other suggestions or things I've missed, do recommend!

Edit: Added Peter Bjorn and John, as well as Animal Collective, as per cpirate's suggestion. The full list is the authoritative source for this, feel free to check it out (and I welcome the use of Last.fm's "suggest this event", as well).

I may be able to roust myself for Bloc Party and maybe MSTRKRFT. It's hard to forgive MSTRKRFT for having been party to the Death From Above 1979 breakup, but I suppose I'll have to deal with it at some point.

As for other shows, you may well be interested in both the upcoming Animal Collective and Peter, Bjorn and John shows. Animal Collective in particular sounds like it may be up your alley.

Want me to pick up tickets for Bloc Party? I presume you're going to both of those shows you're suggesting?

I haven't decided exactly what I'm doing for Kinetik, but Robin and I are probably doing the first and last days.

My current plan is to go to the last day.

Hooray!

I would love to, but I cannot.

We should do late night coffee again!
