The quality of the free distribution of the Arcade Fire concert is superb. The only similar I’ve heard is an old Smiths concert taped (yes I said taped) at The Royal Albert Hall in (if I still had the tape I’d know the year) !; about 1985/9; yes I’m that unsure ! Thanks for highlighting the need for ‘true’ material. I sometimes think the bands just don’t get the point. I am one of the many unfortunates who have yet to see Arcade Fire live and only ‘found’ them when stumbling in late on a pissed up night. God knows why but apart from Jools Holland on Hogmanay I never watch BBC2 (that’s UK T.V. ). I found a life changing experience that night and apart from the new download, spend my time seeking a Smiths bootleg to match Win and Regine’s partnership in a Morrissey and Marr bootleg. Yes I know that was a crass comparison but if you’ve got anything live worth listening to then :……………agreenerpeace@btinternet.com… the names Steve I’m in the U.K. and straight up !

topo, you are thinking of the angel orensanz foundation. they use to have a lot of great shows there, most more jazz oriented that rock. i’ve also seen medinski, martin, and wood play there a couple of times. the environment (churchlike) is more conducive to instrumental acoustics than big high amped shows. for that yo la tengo gig they had 3 brass players join the trio to augment their old charts. i think they were street musicians. in any event, it went off so-so despite the atmosphere. i did pick up a 7″ pressing with the added horns which i will post if i ever rip from vinyl.
