Yeah, I had a friend do the whole holding his cell phone up in the air during "Wake Up". CAN YOU HEAR THAT?!?!?!? CAN YOU HEAR IT?!?!?! I'LL CALL YOU LATER!!!!!

Once again, I am so insane with jealousy for you big-city fuckers.

those people at concerts always make me laugh.

i am going to see arcade fire tonite here in SF...had to pay out the ass for the tix so it better be good

I don't think you'll be disappointed.

my quick review

the show was really good...thought the uptempo songs were very good, the slower songs were kind of hard to hear due to the female singer having an extremely soft voice. they seemed a tad bored with the material as well - they need some new stuff to play. also it is hard to know if some of the songs are actually well written or just that all the shouting and stomping is just really catchy on a visceral level.

the theatrics were pretty crazy - this one dude almost killed a few people with a mic stand and another guy cut his finger and was bleeding all over the place. when the band members weren't playing they would do all sorts of weird shit.

also - it is crazy how young they looked...if they can tighten up their songwriting and harness all that talent they may write a masterpiece one day.
