SOUND WAS TERRIBLE.

I thought Arcade Fire put on a decent show but the sound at the Bill Graham venue was absolutely awful. Everything was just way too loud. They need to hire a new sound engineer.

WASTED TOO MUCH OF MY TIME!

Having lost Beck as an opening act, Arcade Fire went with a band from Haiti (where Win Butler's wife is from) which was not at all entertaining and was way too loud. This might have been the only time in my life when I wore earplugs through an entire show. The worst part of the evening, which was having to listen to the loud, crappy electronic DJ music with some idiot dancing around around his personal stage. Arcade Fire's performance was spotty, as the music from We is tepid, as was the audience response to most of it. A.F. tried to get by with an elaborate light show, but I go for the music, not the visuals. I've seen A.F. 6x now and this was the worst I've seen them. Too loud/indiscernible sound. Uneven performance. They should have played less from We or gotten that lousy album out of the way early, but they kept coming back to it, thereby creating an uneven flow for the concert. I won't see them (formerly one of my favorite bands) until they come out with a great album.
