Arcade Fire Gig Wed Dublin Oct 07

Yay! Well up there among my most favorite gigs with Afghan Whigs in Dublin (Red Box I think) in prob 1998, Yeah Yeah Yeahs at Electric Picnic 2006 and Surfjan Stevens 2006. But Arcade Fire were a whole different kettle of fish. Now there's a band who understand themselves. The visuals were PERFECT and reminiscent of early black and white t.v. (like early music footage of Elvis, sorta curved) and also early silent film. It was an exciting event and I've been in love with Win Butler and Regine since the gig. The Neon Bible makes me think of turn of the century circus and magic shows. I love that their music makes me think of a story to go along with it. I had moments where I was just smiling up into the air because here I was able to sing along live to the music that I love to sing along to. Black Mirror, Television Antichrist, Neighborhood among the best but so much more, that mores the pity I have already forgotten. Puny brain
