Review from the April 7, 1996 show at Fouf in Montreal
Submitted by TM:
There seem to be people who have this fucked-up opinion about 7 year bitch. As soon as the band hit the stage...a guy began his show. He yelled obsenities so damn loud! ``Fuck everyone,...i`m connected to Selene`` he probably thought. Okay! Who am i to judge?....but there`s a limit to certain things and when you cross the lign, people hate! Elizabeth even made an undirect joke on his behaviour.
Anyhow, 7 year bitch were great!!!!!!
The power in each song totally moved the crowd....Also, Gato Negro`s
themes of regret, longing and frustration added to the quality of their
performance. Only by looking into Selene`s eyes...you could feel it, feel
everything in ways that were so very honest. All their albums aside, it is on the concert stage that 7 year bitch is at its best. Their sound is great! For a band as powerful, all the instruments operate together....you can really distinguish Elizabeth`s bass from the strenght of the guitar. The band also spoke in french to the Montreal crowd...Elizabeth was explaining how much the band ate at this restaurant near the club.
After the show, Selene left immediatly. She felt probably not in the
mood. At one point during the show, the unknown guy demanded her
attention. Constantly in her way, she decided to listen to what he had to
say. She refused to whatever it is he really asked her. You could see he
freaked her out! As for the rest of the band, they stayed to talk to
fans...They were so very nice and were really interested in talking and
asking questions. Elizabeth even asked a fan to help her get down the
higher level of the stage. As for Valerie, before signing each
autograph..she wanted to know who she was writing it to...smiling and
all...didn`t want to write SMP to a girl.
PS: ROISIN was lost! She wrote too a few fans ``Toronto is pretty cool``
