The Social goes Metric

The Social got a sound, lighting and TIFF makeover Tuesday night for a private Metric concert, attended by a mix of die hard fans and visiting glitterati.

Emily Haines bounced onto stage in a silver lamé one-piece a little after 11 for the first of two brief but lively, light-showered sets.

“[The audio-visual transformation] was Emily’s idea,” Social owner Richard Lambert tells me later, “she wanted to create a sound and light experience.”

100 tickets were given away through a Metric-fan mailing list and the rest were handed out to Toronto Film Fest delegates.

Planned as the first annual of a series of private concerts by Runaway Music in partnership with with TIFF and presumably The Social. The only thing missing was an open bar.
