1-866-NEON-BIBLE

Check out Scott Stereogum's post in regards to a NEW ARCADE FIRE SONG!!!! Download it at his site. Apparently if you call the number above and key in 7777 you can hear the tune over the phone.

Or just head over here and download Intervention. It appears to be an MP3 made from a radio broadcast from the BBC. All I can say about the song is that it lives up to the high expectations set by Funeral. It is beyond epic, the pipe organ and choir backing vocals gave me shivers. I'm sure indie-rock elitists will snub their new record because they've gotten too big, but fuck them. This song is incredible.

I was able to get two tickets to the Saturday night show in Montreal. Looks like all five shows were sold out (through Admission.com) in about three minutes and every retailer in the city is completely sold out. According to the promoters of the shows, 50 tickets will be available each night at the door, so kids, put on your parkas, gloves and mits and get there early. These shows are already shaping up to be the must see events of 2007.
