Snelly Posted April 6, 2005 Report Share Posted April 6, 2005 MEDESKI, MARTIN & WOODOpening act: "Young Philadelphians"(Marc Ribot, Grant Calvin Weston and Jamaaladeen Tacuma)Medeski Martin & Wood had been packing ‘em in for four consecutive years at the Festival before taking a break in 2004. The ensemble is back again with its most electrifying creation ever, End of the World, featuring sounds somewhat more elaborate and pop-oriented. The show will spotlight special guest Marc Ribot, an extraordinarily versatile guitarist who collaborated on the album. The opening act will feature Ribot with the dynamic trio ‘Young Philadelphians, which includes amazing free-funk bassist Jamaaladeen Tacuma and the awesome Grant Calvin Weston on drums. Together they’ll be serving up an amalgam of progressive jazz and funk.Métropolis, July 2, 9 p.m.$42.50 * Looking like a good weekend to go to Montreal!
