Despite
what Kelefa says, Arcade Fire
have set out to be rock-and-roll saviors -- and no, that's not necessarily a bad thing. Compared to
Modest Mouse's insipid fart of a set at the Orpheum a couple weeks ago, AF's show in the same room last night was a revelation. [Check back Monday for a full review.]
Setlist:
Black Mirror
No Cars Go
Haiti
Neighborhood #2 (Laika)
In the Backseat
My Body Is a Cage
Windowsill
