I'd say Tunnels, Power Out, Wake Up, Rebellion, Keep the Car Running, No Cars Go, The Suburbs, Ready to Start, Sprawl II, Reflektor, We Exist, Here Comes the Night Time, Normal Person, It's Never Over and Afterlife are all very likely and they'll make the rest up out of what remains

A combination of boredom and insomnia has compelled me to create a glastonbury setlist. I think this would be a pretty solid one:

  • Reflektor
  • Month Of May
  • Keep The Car Running
  • Laika
  • You Already Know
  • Antichrist Television Blues
  • Afterlife
  • No Cars Go
  • Porno
  • Tunnels
  • The Suburbs
  • The Suburbs (continued)
  • Intervention
  • We Exist
  • Ready To Start
  • We Used To Wait
  • Power Out/Rebellion

-----------------------------------------

  • Here Comes The Night Time
  • Sprawl II
  • Wake Up

Watched the coachella set last night - wow. I've seen them four times but never a full headline set like that, even more excited now. I was thinking the funeral and neon bible stuff sounded the best.

The second half of that set really was a stormer, overall though I think the Reading set was better.

Edit: And those fucking balls would have done my head right in.

replace Porno with Normal Person and Antichrist Television Blues with It's Never Over (which i think is gonna be one of the 'big' ones from this album) and that looks about right (and maybe replace You Already Know with Joan Of Arc, because fuck You Already Know)

Incredibly excited to hear No Cars Go the most. Even on record that is an incredibly powerful song. I don't think they have ever quite topped it.

Personally dig Reflektor now, I wonder whether Jonathan Ross would make an appearance at some stage, more likely than Bowie I would think.

I'm a bit ambivalent about It's Never Over on the record, it's a bit of a plodding song and Joan of Arc doesn't do much for me either. Having said that Arcade Fire are good enough live to make even their mediocre songs sound good.

Id really dislike it if they did Funeral in full, I know its fantastic but theyve got so many other great songs that would get dropped.

Im not overly keen on album shows unless its by bands whose recent output has been crap (aka Muse doing OoS)

I agree - funeral is my favourite but I'd much rather see something like the mix of the four albums most have been suggesting. Actually i'd be disappointed if any of the albums had less than 2-3 songs included... can't think of many artists i'd say that about, four albums in.

Bands playing albums in full are usually those who are either past their best, or who have played festivals so many times they have to justify their appearance by doing something different (see Muse, Metallica, Linkin Park, Green Day as prime examples in the past few years).

Arcade Fire are arguably on top of their game right now, so shouldn't have to resort to cheap gimmicks like that
