That's a far less embarrassing revelation than the fact that he occasionally posted on HF Boards.

so can Arcade Fire go away now?

they won a grammy, they are mainstream, all their fans can pretend to stop liking them right?

once they go mainstream they can no longer be hip

If I had asked before the night who, besides Arcade Fire, would be the most happy about them winning AoY, how many people would've picked Kanye West?

He tweets on awful lot about pop culture stuff... I follow hundreds of people but it seems every time I glance over at my stream I see a tweet from McKenzie.

Nah, great band...You know what would be cool, is if Eminem got a chick to sing a power ballad and then add angry rap lyrics, that would be fresh.....

Thank you for posting this. To be fair I think they are quite talented but not for me thats for sure.

Now if only mumford and sons could go away I would be happy. I kept hearing about this great Irish band (someone actually described them as an Irish pub band), from what I've heard they sound like coldplay, arcade fire and a banjo had a threeway.

I'll take flogging molly and the pogues thanks.

Considering that Eminem's latest music carries a similar emotional power to Celine Dion music, it doesn't surprise me that Bob digs it.

They're English.

Nice to see Bob is a big David Byrne fan

Come on now, how can we expect CrusaderPi to remember something he read over two years ago. If he had remembered, clearly he wouldn't have made that post.
