they're doing it wrong.
(the food truck thing)
― socki (s1ocki), Friday, 2 May 2014 13:06 (ten years ago) link
basically you can only get a food truck in this city if you already own a restaurant and you promise to put $9 pulled pork sandwiches on the menu.
Most pulled pork sandwiches cost $9 already. The food truck version would be a pulled pork banh mi slider.

Thinking it's time I come back the next month or so.
With Mutek and Suoni Per Il Popolo, should I consider moving to Mtl for end of May/June?
― Kornblud (admrl), Thursday, 15 May 2014 19:22 (nine years ago) link
do it! feel like you're simultaneously more & less eligible for the thrill of seeing los angeles plays itself at the cinematheque in a couple weeks but come anyway. montreal is in #full #spring.
also admrl come before i leave montreal forever, soon

I will come soon, maybe even in a few weeks. I think Mtl is by far and away my favorite East Coast city, if you even consider it that
― Kornblud (admrl), Thursday, 15 May 2014 19:34 (nine years ago) link
Oh I am staying put where I am now, if that's what you mean. I'm in this for the long(er) haul.
― Kornblud (admrl), Thursday, 15 May 2014 19:35 (nine years ago) link
I'll be in yr city for a week starting the 26th
― a strange man (mh), Thursday, 15 May 2014 19:40 (nine years ago) link
my favorite East Coast city, if you even consider it that
if philadelphia can be considered "on the coast," then why not Montreal?
also, i agree.
― espring (amateurist), Thursday, 15 May 2014 19:44 (nine years ago) link
well finally we agree on something

i've actually met both of you! a rare moment on ilx for me.
Mutek is going to be great! So much good stuff this year. plus a lot of it is at the contemporary art museum, which will make an interesting difference of some sort, who knows. and there's a bunch of free outdoor stuff that is pretty cool and weird, so we get to see baffled looks on random tourists' faces.

― a strange man (mh), Monday, 26 May 2014 22:08 (nine years ago) link

― obliquity of the ecliptic (rrrobyn), Monday, 26 May 2014 23:20 (nine years ago) link
only in montreal does a store open or move and the management is like "booze for everyone!!" e.g., they were giving away samples of sapporo beer at the renovated loblaws in parc-ex the other day)

I went to Atom Heart (I know, music on physical media, lol me) on the way out of town and wanted to buy an album but they only had the promo listening station copy left, so they gave it to me for free! Buy something there.

this place gave me a parking ticket, should i pay it?
― k3vin k., Tuesday, 8 July 2014 16:46 (nine years ago) link
the city really needs the money, so it would be nice if you did
― silverfish, Tuesday, 8 July 2014 19:49 (nine years ago) link
1/3 of it will just fund the lavish suburban homes of extended Calabrian or Sicilian families. Don't pay it.
