Holy Shit: Arcade Fire Live!!!!!!!

There is this band called Arcade Fire, you might want to check them out. Their first album in 2004 was widely considered one of the best albums of that decade. Their third album was released a couple days ago, and is already the front runner for best album of this decade (so far). Said album just happens to be number one in America.

Do me a favor, go to Billboard.com, click on the Billboard 200, read through the top 40, and let me know how many acts you regularly listen to? Who the fuck are these guys? I must be too many years removed from High School to get it (although I'll defend half of Drake's work).

Arcade Fire also happens to be one of the greatest live acts I have witnessed. To all the folks who will complain about their main stream appeal, and how they used to be great back in the day playing in front of a couple hundred, bitch all you want, the rest of us will be enjoying an evening of bliss.
