The Music Slut

Arcade Fire & The National @ Radio City: a.ma.z.i.n.g!

More deets to come. In the meantime, check out some photos, the setlists and other randomness:

Celebs (and pseudo celebs) in attendance: Tim DeLaughter from The Polyphonic Spree, Michael Ian Black, Aziz Ansari, David Bowie (who am I missing?)

No Bowie collaboration (sigh), but the show was still absolutely incredible.

Arcade Fire setlist:
"Keep The Car Running"
"No Cars Go"
"Haiti"
"Black Mirror"
"Neighborhood #2 (Laika)"
"In The Back Seat"
"My Body Is A Cage"
"The Well And The Lighthouse"
"Ocean Of Noise"
"Neighborhood #1 (Tunnels)"
"(Antichrist Television Blues)"
"Neighborhood #3 (Power Out)"
"Rebellion (Lies)"
-----
"Intervention"
"Wake Up"

MP3: The Arcade Fire - The Well & The Lighthouse

The National played a solid 45-minute set highlighting tunes from both Alligator and their new LP, Boxer. It was rather bizarre to see The National in such a massive space but they did a superb job warming up the already overzealous crowd.

The National setlist:
"Secret Meeting"
"Mistaken For Strangers"
"Slow Show"
"Abel"
"Start A War"
"Squalor Victoria"
"Apartment Story"
"Fake Empire"
"Mr. November"
"About Today"

Mike D (Beastie Boys) was there. I saw him while I was trying to get into the orchestra level for the encore. Needless to say, I didn't get in... the security were total pricks.
