The Arcade Fire's live show.
tThe song 'no cars go', from their EP is a favorite; however, funeral may be the best album of the millenium. Their songs and poetics can linger with for days. I have seen them twice in concert, and my recommendation is to enjoy them if and when you can.
At the PNE forum last year, the Arcade Fire, having finnished their show and encores, took their instruments into the audience, and played facing the stage at the enterance to the forum. Surrounded they played cover songs, marching with drums and guitars, and finished with the violent fems. It was so unexpected, they played for so long that night. A year before they would have never even played for an audience of a thousand, and at the commodore Win Butler, front man lead singer, would tell the Vancouver audience that it was the largest audience they had ever played infront of.
