The Arcade Fire don't like being upstaged by Radiohead
« on: October 03, 2007, 01:14:00 pm »
And REALLY aren't The Arcade Fire the US version of Radiohead?

 Arcade Fire post cryptic online message
 
 Something is happening on October 6
 
 Arcade Fire have posted a cryptic message online.
 
 On their Neon Bible site vistors click on a closed eye to see it opening and revealing a message.
 
 The message says: "Be oNline B October 6th".
 
 Clicking on the message, visitors are sent to Beonlineb.com.
 
 The website features pictures of closed eyes and the words: "October 6th" repeated 11 times.
 
 
 I'm thinking it's their new album!  And you can pay whatever you want to download it!  Or you can order a special boxed version available in December!
 
 either that or it's a Régine Chassagne sex tape.

Brian only keeps close tabs on the nationalities of "good" bands... like Fall Out Boy, Ciara, Panic! at the Disco...

my money is on this being a simulcast of the show at Keyspan Park, as you have to be online on October 6 according to instructions...

Win Butler is from Texas and he went to boarding school at Exeter.  He's more George W. Bush than he is French Canadian.

That's his origin, but I think the rest of the band is from Montreal. And they're based there. Aren't there like 8 people in the band?

Win's brother is also in the band and...as a result, also from Texas.

I don't know anything concrete. I just know that *if* there was going to be anything, it would be at the 500-capacity Music Hall of Williamsburg and that you would need your ticket stub from Randall's Island to get in, and that doors would be at 1am.
Woof.
