The Arcade Fire

I had the pleasure of seeing The Arcade Fire last night.  They were absolutely amazing. They were so energetic, it was great. Unfortunately I was feeling quite horrible and probably didn't enjoy it as much as I would have had I been feeling better.
Set list:
Wake up
Laika
No Cars
Headlights
French Song
Power Out
Rebellion
7 Kettles
Born On A Train
Crown of Love
Neighborhood
(a talking heads cover, not on the set list i got, and i can't remember the name)
Haiti
Backseat


The opener, Final Fantasy, was GREAT. It was just one guy and a violin that he would play and record as he played and then loop it and play over it and sing. He was really really enjoyable and really creative. I have never heard so many different sounds made from a violin. He also played violin with The Arcade Fire.


....so i guess you can tell my vote is yes... amazing.

coldcut:
I really like one song at a time.  If I listen to more than one or two in a row, I start getting a little sleepy.  Might just be it's going to take me a little time to warm up to them.  A lot of good bands are like that.

swordskill:
most people seem to like the Arcade fire like 40000thousandtimes more if they saw them live.

siatefelici:
yeah, un annee sans lumiere was right, i was just in a hurry and was  copying exactly what they had on the set list.

True. I was rawkin' out hardxcore and their songs basically bring a tear to my eye every time I listen. Except No Cars Go, which is completely underwhelming since I heard it live before hearing the studio version.
