The Canadian group were supported by an all female Brighton band called Electrelane who create an electronic (as the name suggests) sound that is unique. Their new album "No Shouts, No Calls" is more a list of songs that could stand on their own, "To The East" and "Between The Wolf And The Dog" are just two of these. The incredible Montreal "indie rockers" that are The Arcade Fire played an amazing set (listed below), in which the members switched roles (the drummer played guitar etc..) and left the audience wanting more than the two song encore scheduled. The near ten piece band (which includes a hurdy gurdy and a string section as well as the more traditional rock band instruments) played both songs from their first album "Funeral" and new songs from their recently released album "Neon Bible". Their choice of songs linked well and even included the 1965 Eurovision winner "Poupee de Cire de Son". The lighting was cleverly done as the stage was lined with large neon tubes that glowed red and on the stage were shadow puppetesque boxes showing projections of the neon bible.
