The Angine de Poitrine show wasn't the only packed-to-capacity night — the whole festival season's hitting the same bottleneck. Someone's gotta expand the Quartier des Spectacles or the whole thing breaks.

Angine de Poitrine's show had decent vibes — water was free, medics were checking on people, crowd flowed fine. Maybe expectations just ran too high for some.

Reddit's Montreal crew is pointing out that the main stage at Jazz Fest sits way too high up — literally at the top of a hill on Place des Festivals. Better view would be on the other side. Fair point or overthinking?

Planning a bachelorette this summer? Someone's looking for spots with Gasolina and Noche de Sexo energy—the days of Radiolounge, 1234, and the Loft. The city's debating whether that vibe actually exists anymore or if it's gone for good.
Someone's asking where to kill time between 1 and 5 a.m. waiting for morning metro service if a concert runs late. The real problem: if you catch an Angine show ending around 10:30 p.m. plus crowd time and walking, the metro might be closed by the time you reach the station.
