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
The Well and the Lighthouse
Ocean of Noise
Neighborhood #1 (Tunnels)
Antichrist Television Blues
Keep the Car Running
Neighborhood #3 (Power Out)
Rebellion (lies)

Before Bloc Party visited the Orpheum, FNX had them over to First Act on Boylston street for a low-key, acoustic, afternoon roll in the hay. We've got the mpfrees below. If this is the kind of thing you tend to go apeshit for, scuttle over to www.vwgreenroom.com for more live/unplugged mp3s from Cold War Kids, Pete Yorn, and Say Anything.

Pearl Jam/My Morning Jacket mayhem continues tonight at the Garden. Full report from last night's show is up now over here. Also, we would like to encourage people to join the Tool argument in the comments section on James Parker's piece. Hilarious.
