They were fantastic at the Gold Coast BDO. It was an incredible show.

I've tried but any appreciation of their merit remains entirely elusive.

I'm no fan of the new album at all but those songs made a lot more sense in the live context.

I have that Arcade Fire show. It is great. I saw them with the National a couple years ago. Great show.
I can understand not liking AF but to say they are "terrible"? Not so much. Incredibly talented band. I don't like Justin Timberlake's music but the dude is very talented.

They go on here at the gorge in about an hour.
My bad on the lack of a gorge countdown thread.

Fantastic performance last night. Great crowd, lots of people dressed up. Very glad I went.
My prediction for a local cover going in was Nirvana. They did a brief bit of Teen Spirit. They also covered Hunger Strike!

Win is a huge grunge fan. I'd love to hear them do a Nirvana or Temple song. That would be rad as hell.
