I've got so many comments on this!

1. Win Butler is such a douche in this video telling that guy to get out of the elevator so rudely, and in English! I know he's originally from Texas, but having lived in Montreal for several years and being married to a Quebecois, you'd think he could muster up a “Pardon moi monsiour, s'il vous plait c'est possible que tu sortez ce elevateur?” Jeez.

2. The performance was really good. It's great to see bands capable of doing this sort of thing and not always hiding behind airbrushed production techniques and big stage theatrics.

3. Ripping pages out of a newspaper/magazine as a snare drum was sick.

4. Current TV does this type of thing a lot then, huh? I saw a show on there awhile back called blogotheque where they had The Dodos wander around San Francisco playing their songs on the streets. It was nice.

5. When are we getting a new Arcade Fire album? Neon Bible came out in the beginning of 2007. It's been almost 3 years!
