Osheaga 07 Preview

Don't fret kids, while the headliners may be for the MuchMusic crowd there are some pretty great acts coming to Osheaga this year. The place to be on both days seems to be the "Tree Stage" which will play host to The Veils, a Vice Mag party featuring CPC Gangbangs and Panthers, The Most Serene Republic, Pony Up!, Ideal Lovers, and You Say Party! We Say Die!.

On Saturday make sure to check out Stars, Apostle of Hustle, Blonde Redhead, Explosions in the Sky, and Thunderheist. If you're like me and have no interest in seeing the "new" Smashing Pumpkins head over to the art tent to catch the Daft Punk movie they'll be showing.

Sunday will be pretty decent too with Interpol as one really interesting headliner act. Catch sets by Voxtrot, The Besnard Lakes, Miracle Fortress, Au Revoir Simone, and if you simply can't get enough "indie/funk/hiphop/whatever" you'll probably dig MIA too.

All in all, even with the cancellation of Peter, Bjorn and John this year's fest should be a pretty great time and I suspect it will top last year.

Check in this weekend for updates from the festival and a wrap up on Monday.
