From Mission Bay, Montage has been around since 1998, playing live since 2002, and at Dada, the band is -- at least -- fourth time veterans. Pachter founded the band with his late brother Ray, both multi-instrumentalists whose songs take a particular look at what he says "everything in life."
"It's
going to be kind of mellow," he says of the vibe we should expect of the
evening, you know, given that Dada is a restaurant and all. "We're playing a lot of
unreleased stuff, old and new, as well as songs from all of our
releases, except," he notes, "for the Christmas one and the Nirvana
cover one." Makes sense.
Pachter has a pretty interesting day
job - he films horse races at the Isle Casino. He agrees that it's a
cool gig, "except for the horse flies and horse shit." He promises Montage won't be smashing their instruments at this show, "because it's at Dada's y'know, antique house." He adds, "And we shall, of course, play our song 'Burrito' at the end of the gig, like every show."
Montage and Maddie Basser perform at Dada, 52 North Swinton Ave, Delray Beach, on May 18, from 11 to 2 a.m.
