ARCADE FIRE on Austin City Limits Festival

As you might have heard, Arcade Fire will be appearing on Austin City Limits this weekend - Saturday, November 10th. The session was taped earlier this year during the ACL Festival, and though, due to the vagaries of air travel in these troubled times, I was unable to attend the taping in person, reports from those who did, including the band themselves, point towards an amazing performance.

As a sneak preview, Pitchfork has posted video of "Keep The Car Running" from the ACL taping. If you have not seen it yet, you can check it out HERE.

Looks auspicious.

You can also check out snippets from the post show interview with Will, Win, Jeremy, Tim and Regine on the ACL website HERE.

"Oh My Gawd!!"

Seems the folks attending the Springsteen show in Ottawa, ON on Sunday evening got a little treat. A little "magic" if you will. Win Butler and Regine Chassagne of Arcade Fire joined The Boss onstage during the encore!!
