After two packed shows this past December at the Sound Academy, Broken Social Scene is getting ready to embark on the second half of their North American tour with a show in New York City (the only Canadian date is in London this Sunday). If you missed the two Toronto concerts, you’re in luck: BSS has invited all their fans to join them via the miracle of the interweb for their NYC show at Terminal 5 on January 18th at 9 p.m.
Broken Social Scene has a habit of incorporating local talent into their shows; this past August, their concert on Olympic Island featured Sebastien Grainger from the defunct Death From Above 1979 and sometime BSSers Emily Haines (of Metric) and Feist. Given the live-stream treatment the NYC show is getting, we’re expecting some equally exciting guest stars streamed live into our living room.
