Local ska punk was better
American bands Mustard Plug and Streetlight Manifesto spoke behind The Planet Smashers. Of the three line-ups that operate in ska punk, the Quebecers performed best.
Even if the fans in front of the stage seemed appreciative, a good portion of the audience took advantage of the Mustard Plug’s passage to go relieve themselves and drink. The basic part of this demo was flawless, but the song’s lyrics were a little less clear to understand.
The garden of the Francophonie was just beginning to empty when headliners, the Streetlight Manifesto, took the stage. However, they gave a high quality performance, which leaned more towards punk than ska.
On a more positive note, those who have followed Mustard Plug since its debut in 1992 argue that the energy on stage is still the same after all these years.
