Hipster Event Of The Fall

Just how big are the Arcade Fire? Well come this fall they are set to play amphitheaters - including Red Rocks and the Hollywood Bowl - around the country, with LCD Soundsystem tagging along in support on most dates. They will also make their way back to New York City (where they had a much buzzed about three night stand a few months back) to play a huge crowd of music loving hipsters on Randall's Island. I don't know about the rest of the country, but I'm expecting this show to sell out quite quickly with that one-two punch of a bill.

Pre-sale for a bunch of dates starts tomorrow. You can also check out the rest of the dates so far here (via Brooklyn Vegan). Start searching the thrift stores for your ironic t-shirt now.

Here's a couple of videos for you viewing pleasure. First up Arcade Fire with "Go Cars Go"....



And here's LCD Soundsystem with "Daft Punk Is Playing At My House"....
