Rebellion is probably in my top-five all-time favorite songs, and definitely my favorite of theirs. That fucking bassline, man.
 
This might be one of 2 songs i don't care for on the new album. Live doesn't change my opinion of it, but at least they're shredding right through it.

This might be the best concert I've ever witnessed, I NEED to see this in person.

(This is why I made my hyperbolic comment before re: U2.)

I'd love to hear Sprawl II again, and I think the world needs to hear Wake Up live. That said the encore is the most likely place where they'd change up the setlist.
 
Just got this album yesterday, and I have to say, this is definitely my favorite so far this year, and probably one of my favorites of the last few years.

Wish I'd known about this streaming concert. Will it be available for download anywhere?
 
Can someone please explain this band to me? I've tried listening to a bunch of their songs, but I just don't "get" what all the hype is about.

If listening to Funeral straight through doesn't make you think good things of this group then nothing will.

well a complete album would be a good start. Try Funeral.

I mean this honestly and completely neutrally--if you've been watching the last hour and a half and don't "get" it, then forget it and don't worry about it.
 
I hope this will be available to watch on youtube later, i've just caught these last 4 songs

edit: although Month of May is probably my favorite song on Suburbs so that was ok :lol
 
all this is doing for me is making me wish I was there. Theres something so awesome about being at a live arcade fire show that just doesn't translate through youtube for me. oh well, august 14th is coming soon!

I don't like the whole Encore ritual, but here we go.

I was just thinking that last night! Totally understand taking a set break, but the goodnights and stuff, eh. I don't know why it suddenly bugged me last night.
 
encores are just great I remember when I saw Incubus not to long ago everyone was banging on the seat in front of them just crazy but its gets you pumped for a few more songs
