Let’s review

The Sunday Sinners, Pub Jacques-Cartier, Feb. 24: First off, what an amazing joint. Tucked away in the Village, this place pretty much caters to the cover-band set, so you know it's hot. Half the fun was just checking out the regular clientele. All of the guys looked like Bon Jovi's Richie Sambora, complete with three-quarter-length leather jackets, and the ladies all looked like they pay their rent by sliding down a pole. Garage-rock warlords the Black Lips didn't make the scene due to the man coming down on them at immigration, but after witnessing the Sunday Sinners, it just didn't matter. Made up of ex- and current members of les Vautours, les Sexareenos, the Delgators and the Nul Set, these ladies (and one very lucky dude) serve up soul-slathered hip-shakers that could give the Detroit Cobras a run for their money. The lead singer possesses pipes of gold. Dig it!

Highlights: The Richie Sambora thing was a close second to watching an overexcited Pop Montreal organizer Dan "Hill" Seligman lose himself during "Mama Didn't Raise No Fool." Watching him yank out "jazz hands" when he thought no one was looking was priceless.
