I’m seeing double here: four diamonds!

personally really digging the latest single, though I have been playing this for a week solid and getting goosebumps repeatedly:

I'm with you! Been hammering the live version. It shouldn't have caught me by surprise that the album version is slower than the live version but it did. 

Looks and sounds like a great song live proving that what can be classed as "album filler" by some can be brilliant live with Arcade Fire. Can't wait for more and for a tour!

Like with all AF songs it only gets better the more you listen to it.

Anyone heard anything about set times for Friday?

Properly the worst song they've ever made I think. Just completely deadened and anonymous. 

Chemistry says hey

[FuzzyDunlop]

Lookout kid works much better live in my opinion... like a lot Arcade Fire tunes.

Sums up the beauty of music. I've always found We Used to Wait completely boring.

I’m still desperately hoping for a ticket tomorrow! If anyone has a spare going I’d be so grateful 

[broken monkey]

Thankfully for myself, I’m all but over my bout of Covid (just have no sense of smell/taste). Testing negative now so no fear of passing anything on. 
 

Going by the livestream start time, I assume they’ll be on stage at 9pm. Doesn’t seem to be any support either.

I didn’t get a response from KOKO so assuming no support. They also didn’t confirm the time on stage but given the stream it’s gotta be 9.

I can’t remember being so excited about a gig.

Had also been hoping somehow a ticket would come up, hey ho, will enjoy the stream. Hope those that were lucky have a great evening 🙂

Ahhh that’s such good news! Happy to hear that have a good one ☺️

Was lucky enough to get tickets for tomorrow and getting super excited!

Never been to the venue in any of its previous forms, anyone been before and have any tips?

I'm not sure if anyone will have any tips as I understand its had a major build/refit. I used to go regularly back in the day to Peach nights at the Camden Palace and a few gigs at Koko. However, I think the new update will be radically different to previous times.

I have tickets for tommorow and as well as looking forward to seeing Arcade Fire, I am keen to see what they have done with the place. From pictures I saw after the fire, it looked like they completly gutted it.

I always used to get a couple of tins then slide down the left hand side of the main room stage, no idea what to expect tomorrow! I expect something better (and pricier) than warm Carling though…

[unodosseb]

I was insanely lucky to get a ticket off someone earlier tonight, it still doesn’t feel real

It's today!  Guess we'll all find out the new layout in a few hours time.  Will be crawling down from Chalk Farm tube all afternoon so as long as we make to get there before they take the stage we're all in for a real treat.  Enjoy all.

There will likely just be a dj leading up to the start. The ny shows didnt  have support either. But watch the merch tanle. They had vinyl for sale.

Any news on what time they are on stage? 

Guessing 9ish but could it be earlier if there’s no supports?

I don’t know about now but in before times Koko would have an early curfew on Friday nights due to the club night.

The livestream starts at 9 so must be then.
