The Suburbs is a modern masterpiece.

Had a chance last year but didn't due to budgetary reasons...same with Bruce Springsteen, though those tickets were absurd.

One of my friends saw them at Coachella a couple years ago and still raves about it. They are near the top of my need to see list.

Second best gig I've ever been to, on the Neon Bible tour. Only Uncle Neil trumps them.

Neil was awesome. Fuck, I'd love to get a Neil show equal parts acoustic & electric crush.

Seen them three times and the best show was the one they played for free at the end of summer in 2011 at Place des Arts with 75,000 in attendance.

I have seen them 3 times too one for each album tour, but i'd like to go on a multiple tour run with them. They so good live.

I like every album. I really hope the next one is strong too. If it is they are climbing my favorite band list quickly.

Good news.

I really enjoyed The Suburbs but just found the album far too long.

there are a few songs on each of their albums I like quite a bit, but haven't fallen in love with an album as a whole. I probably need to go back to them

I would say I love most of Funeral and The Suburbs, but the entirety of Neon Bible. For me that's the most consistent album, with nothing that doesn't belong.
