Who knows why, but The National figured this would be a good week to dominate the headlines. Following the debut of two new songs and an on-stage collaboration with Justin Vernon , the Brooklyn-based indie rock stalwarts were back at it on Friday night. Their seventh to last scheduled tour date, and the final one not in New York City, the band was in Win Butler's stomping grounds, aka Montreal, and brought out the Arcade Fire frontman during "Start A War". You can catch the live footage below. Arcade Fire's Richard [...]

A preview of great shows in San Francisco this week...(with videos and shit)...

The annual benefit for The Bridge School took place over the weekend and Neil Young was there for the 25th year to help raise funds for children with special needs. Young joined Arcade Fire during their set for a cover of his old jam "Helpless". I've never been a huge fan of Neil Young or his music, so this doesn't do too much for me unfortunately.

Arcade Fire performed at Neil Young's Bridge School Benefit Concert last night and as usual, they delivered a fantastic set, covering songs from all three of their albums. They are one of those few and rare bands that sound perhaps even better live than on record, combining a stage presence with what seems to be a genuine excitement to be performing. The setlist is as follows: 1:24 The Suburbs 7:31 Empty Room 12:16 Month of May 15:50 Rebellion (Lies) 21:51 Intervention 26:59 Helpless (with Neil Young) [Crosby Stills Nash & Young [...]

Anna Rose continues to astound us with her gorgeous voice.

I see that this was actually posted in late 2010, but it's the first I am hearing and seeing it. Alex Greenwald covers the Arcade Fire song  "We Used To Wait" on a mandolin and it's perfect. I miss these random little videos and covers that he used to film with his Phantom Planet peoples. Too good not to share. Enjoy.
