    Anyone else see that crazy fat lady right at the front of the stage a few minutes ago. Lol, her boobs were bobbing about a few minutes ago.

    Hurrah! Finally got it going :)
    Norton Antivirus was blocking it, the sh*thead!

    Oh yes, this is the f*cking song ! (Crown of Love)

    Beautiful

    Just tuned into this. Have to say, that despite my earlier cynicism... really not half bad at all. I'm not an Arcade Fire fan - possibly because of them being overplayed. Well the same songs being overplayed again & again, but this is OK... kinda like Neil Young meets The Cure.

    Plus the sound & picture quality is savage, which helps!

    Though the song that's on at the minute is a bit sh*t.

    A problem they encountered i think was the fact that their albums are meant to be albums. So taking singles from them kinda works against the band. So anyone who has heard Arcade Fire songa but never listened to their albums in their entirity doesn't really "get it"

    I guess that was why they never made any videos for any singles from Neon Bible!

    (this is just my opinion of course)

    Rococo's my favourite new one too...and Crown of Love is my fave off Funeral. This is fúcking class!

    I'm moving to Spain soon and i just went to check their Tour Dates so i could bring all my Spanish mates to see this band while i'm there!

    Only 3 of their gigs in the entire tour are sold out so far and 2 of them are the only 2 Spanish dates.

    F*ck sake!

    Which part of Spain are you moving to?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,508 ✭✭✭ElaElaElano


    We Used to Wait sounds fantastic, I reckon anyone who's still having doubts about the new record will be converted if they watch this. All the new ones have been class.


  • Registered Users Posts: 19,198 ✭✭✭✭MrStuffins

    Alicante but i'll be splitting my time between there and Valencia City (hopefully) as i used to live there.
