Maybe the baby was found at the concert hall.

Just clearing out the PVR and decided to check out the Arcade Fire episode, after a few seconds of looking at the big goofy singer I remembered that he was accused of some sexually inappropriate behavior with young girls a few years ago. Guess that was all forgotten.

Damn that band is garbage, just beyond awful.

They were not great last week, and the new album seems to be a let down. Their first few albums were brilliant. Wake Up was a highlight of the SNL 50 live concert. Win Butler is an ass.

Musically they are what I hate most about that type of stuff.

Nothing skillful about anything any of the band members played, I know that's not the focus with "indie" music but it's so rudimentary that any 13 year old kid can plunk away on a single note on a cheap guitar and recreate it. What pisses me off is that none of them play with any attitude or originality, none of the chords or phrasing contain anything unique. The pervert husband and his wife are not even good singers, fine I guess, maybe some of their vocal melodies are catchy but ####ed if I know how they're successful.

I've done my best to ignore them over the years but now I know how brutally terrible they are.

They brought down a decent episode with Walton Goggins being very game. Really going to play the melancholy stuff on Live TV, eh?


The ScarJo finale was fine, felt like the writers were a bit gassed after an intense season.

Their first three records were really solid IMO. Unfortunately they got progressively worse with each album after that and I completely lost interest. Then came the sexual allegation stuff, which was the death knell.
