  • Holy crap man I'm so jealous.

    There you go I've said it, I'm jealous of Dunkman.

    What the fuck else do you want, a medal?

    I've got no money!! You reckon they'd still have tickets? I've been thinking it would be all kinds of sold out by now.

    oh it has, but its still not as good as Funeral.. but then thats probably one of the best 5 albums of all time for me.

    i;ve been on arcadefires fansite and seen the setlists for Dublin and the look pretty amazing... great finishing songs!!

    also, i think they do some pretty cool t-shirts and other merch!!!

    Enjoy! Best live band on the planet. I saw them three times this year. Every time, pure bliss.
    It makes much more sense to live in the present tense.

    Met 3 people i knew from school getting off the train after they had seen them, said it was great. Didnt even know they were on tonight as much as i love them, i was in the pub just round the corner.
    People say im paranoid. Well, they dont say it, but i know that's what they are thinking.
