José Gonzalez & Mia Doi Todd: 8 p.m. Tonight - Cabaret Juste Pour Rire
I'm not the biggest fan of stripped down guitar and song, but tonight's lineup is an
absolute exception. An evening of downright moving acoustics is guaranteed, opening with
classically trained darling Mia Doi Todd followed by the eerie and dreamy acoustic master himself, Jose Gonzalez. Tickets are still available at $23 and up. Call
(514) 790-1245 for more information.
