I didn't bother to see The Arcade Fire in June, since t

[nayrasher]

Where were all you douchebags last June when they played at the Black Cat to a crowd of around 80 people?  Oh, "music critics" hadn't told you they were cool yet so you didn't bother to see them.  I get it.  Now I have to see them will all you jerks and stand between some couple making out and some guy in a spikey metal belt.  Awesome.  I wish each person with a ticket was illiterate and wasn't able to read the reviews so that I could see them by myself, completely alone.  I hate sold out shows, I hate people who are "in" to "in" music.  I've already seen them twice and yes, that means I find music on my own, unlike you scumbags.

because if he found his own good music he would be listening to cartel, instead he wants to tell people  how cool he is

The better question is: Why start a new thread on this?

I didn't see them in June because I had no idea who they were. Back in September or October I read a review at allmusic.com and decided to give them a try. Frankly, the best album I have heard in a long time. I guess I am one of those idiots who are going to see them at the 9:30 at the end of January. I don't see anything wrong with this. Actually, the only thing I see is that your main point in your message is to show us how cool you are, I thought it was a pretty sad message.

shame they didn't go the route like ashlee simpson sell millions of records and then go on tour in large arenas and charge lots of money, would have been much better that why dontca think.

I hadn't heard of them yet.  Don't worry, you can stand in the front and proudly proclaim in front of everyone that you knew about them before anyone else did.
 
 People at shows always really admire people like you.

Ever notice one of the chicks in Arcade Fire looks like a retard? My wife pointed that out to me.
 
 I suppose they are not as bad as Interpol, but they're still not very good.

Dude, whatever.  I was at Régine Chassagne's 4th grade recorder recital.  Eat it.  
 
 Besides, why get all territorial over a band that's nothing all-that-special to begin with?  It's just music.

also be sure to shout requests for that rare b-side or demo track you've heard off...
 
 and while your at it, be sure to sign the hfs petition.  you'll fit in quite nicely over there.
