" I saw them play Glasgow on Thursday. Best gig of my life bar none.

There's so much to see when they're playing. Napoleon standing on the speakers with a crash helmet on, Win Butler crowdsurfing, the violinists doing wierd stuff to each other. The acoustics were great and the setlist was amazing. When they came back on for an encore they started to play "A Hard Rain's Gonna Fall" which then went into "Wake Up".

It was intense. It was emotional, there was tears welling in my eyes and at the end of "In The Backseat" they parted the crowd and did a 'funeral procession' up the middle of the crowd, still playing. We followed them downstairs (still playing, mind) and into the cloakroom. It was unbelievable..."
