I would. But I'm just not a fan. I watched 10 minutes and it sealed it. The quality is real good tho.

Great feed, just not my cup of tea.

No prob - being an old fart i just like to see how technology has progressed! I bet YouTube is going to be real popular one day!

Definitely looks like the've worked the bugs out since the U2 live stream. Very talented group of musicians.

Good quality feed and better performance than I expected. Not my fav but they're definitely one of the up and coming bands. Com'mon that kind of notoriety after three albums is petty sweet.

I'm big into indie music but I have not been able to get into Arcade Fire even though they've been the indie darlings for the past 6 years.

I was at the Wednesday night MSG show. They were absolutely amazing. Seeing "Wake up" was pretty awe inspiring....really powerful stuff, especially with the entire, sold out garden singing every word!

I still don't get them. Not saying they're bad, just don't get it.

Although (on ACL) the angry organ grinder girl was kind of funny.

That show was great, but they are starting to become very overrated. The new album is a total dud besides for 3 songs, IMO. And Neon Bible was pretty bad, too. One great album followed by 2 bad ones isn't a great track record. Pretty crazy that this band was just playing Mercury Lounge here a few years ago.

I wish I was there. one of my favorites bans in MSG...
I saw them one month ago and I'll see them in 3 weeks. Really good live band, IMO.
