OJV Final Fantasy Aftermath

On Halloween night, people have gathered in mass at Salle Pollack to ruin thousands of children’s Halloween night in favor of watching a concert in tribute to Final Fantasy.

OJV Final Fantasy Encore

I think it was on the 12th of June that the OJV [Orchestre de Jeux Videos] played their repertoire of Final Fantasy music at Salle Pollack.

There are also a whole bunch of “cracked-out”, or strange if you will, things that are around Montreal. Rambling aside, I now present you with “A Weekend in Montreal”.
