Ah Arcade Fire. I do believe that 'Wake Up' was the best performance of any song i've ever seen in my life by anyone. Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds did a pretty startling version of 'Stagger Lee' too. What a weekend.

They're actually worth paying money to spend time with. Their live show is so much more alive then any show i've ever seen. It's so refreshing to find out that a band that you like are actually interested in doing what they're supposed to be doing.

I met Richard Reed Parry afterwards in the crowd before The Falming Lips, for such a dynamic guy onstage he's really softly spoken.

I thought they were brilliant at electric Picnic but on the tuesday before, i went to see them in Liverpool with my mum!! It was in the Carling Academy,similar size to whelans! And .....OMG.....it was without doubt the best gig i have EVER been to in my life!!!---which hasn't been to long of a life as i'm only 17 but i have been to a bizzilion gigs and that one stood out !!!I We were in the front row and for the entire thing i stood there with my mouth open(it eventually turned into a smile once i got over the initial shock of their amazingness!!!) But seriously....BEST LIVE BAND EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!
