FREE Arcade Fire Shows in Ohio

I have seen arcade Fire at Red Rocks with LCD Soundsystem opening and LCD were AWESOME! but Arcade Fire were loud and perpetually insufficient to the type of sound I enjoy. They are loud, they bang on their instruments, they are not my type of tunes. If you go to these free shows, have a good time! All music deserves a listen... Even if it is loud and lacking guitar soloing and jazzy/funky grooves and cool choruses and awesome vocal chords...

GO, stinkd!

FREE SHOW......Respect to any band that is willing to play free music to raise political awareness even if it lacks "jazzy/funky grooves". The Red Rocks show was awesome from start to finish.

There few instances where a free show is still not an option. I believe I would have to be paid by Arcade Fire for me not to vomit when they play. Free does not equal worth my time. That plus music does not inspire my political viewpoints (remaining GD members included), nor should it for any one else.

Yeah, trying to affect people by raising consciousness through the power of music just isn't my thing. That Bob Marley sure was a nut.

AF reigns, brah.

I gotta admit, I do find it odd when people/bands from other countries get involved in our political process. I mean, we as americans would never go to another country and try to tell them what's best for them politically or socially... oh, wait... nevermind.

timmyp- nailed it. besides who the funk REALLY listens to Arcade Fire... I mean who actually cares what they have to say musically much less politically? not me my friends, not me

Osama, I mean Obama is probabaly writing them a fat check. It's only March and I'm so fucking sick of the political bullshit.

Well get used to it acomma Ohio is a key state in the election just like last time when you chose to put the retard back in office and judging from your osama comment you'd probably be happy to do it again much of it is bullshit but don't sound like an idiot if Osama is writing a check for anyone it would have to be our current President he's done exactly what terrorism was meant to do, get the word about it out to more people and enable recruitment around the world

larry, you have absolutely no idea what you are talking about. You assume I voted for Bush, which is false. I realize the candidate who has won Ohio has ended up winning the election the past 60 or some odd years. Don't be such a negative nelly!!

If you didn't read the thread on where they are from, Win and Will were born and raised in the US, hence they are American citizens and a dual citizenship is close to the same thing. Regine's father fought for the US in that bullshit conflict in Vietnam and Jeremy, our friend from the north are astounishing musicians. Who cares what they have to say chillyh2o? Most of the music population, including Widespread Panic. Get your head out of your ass.

damnit, i need to start walking!

i personally think arcade fire are AMAZING.

perhps its because they play songs with actual meaning,

as opposed to songs about, say, love tractors, or coconuts...

agreed monjotar

wish they would have announced this earlier....

AF is not a jamband, but they have better songwriting and lyrics that are very deep and sung with such enthusiasim to provoke emotions other than "dance party." (nothing wrong with a dance party, but you can't say they suck cause they don't play trancefusion)
