Iggy Pop

The first U.S. presidential election debate — between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton, in case you’ve been blocking it out (yes, this is actually happening) — is being broadcast on loads of channels tonight, including the CBC.

Chez Boris (5151 Parc), Taverne Cobra (6584 St-Laurent), 8 p.m., free entry

If you didn’t get in on POP Montreal’s Symposium talks (or you did and you still want to scratch that itch, the Red Bull Music Academy has a special treat in store tonight. In Conversation With Iggy Pop pairs the Godfather of Punk with Canadian music journalist Carl Wilson for a lengthy chat about Pop’s colourful career. Monument National 1182 St-Laurent, 8 p.m., $35.35

Promoters Analogue Addiction present another way to cure POP Montreal withdrawal: Their 100th show, featuring L.A. rock ’n’ roll band and Burger Records signees Death Valley Girls with like-minded Montrealers Pale Lips and Penny Diving (formerly the Muscadettes). L’Escogriffe (4467 St-Denis), 9 p.m., $10
