what i wouldn't have given to crash that wedding. Will has the most energetic on-stage presence of the entire band, and that's saying something.

Can you imagine walking down 9th street that night, faintly hearing the sounds of what you thought was the best Arcade Fire cover band ever, only to find out it was actually the band?

...and now that they have an 'official' connection to St. Louis, do you think they could, you know, actually play another show here any time soon?

I'm still bummed I missed them playing at the Rocket Bar in the summer of '04 - I was there four nights a week then when I should have been studying for the Bar Exam, but apparently no tthe night they played.

aw, that's nice. i got married at the whittemore house. given that i study at the wash u law library, i get to see my wedding venue quite often even now...

a friend of mine saw Arcade Fire in Columbia, shortly after the release of Funeral, and they reported that the Rocket Bar show was one of the worst shows that they have ever been a part of and were pretty much disinterested in returning to St. Louis because of it

lame
