Well, at least Matt Pinfield was there.

Brian and I went to see The Arcade Fire play at the TLA in Philly with 'Man Man.' This is the third time I've seen Arcade Fire (probably the last) and the only time that I've been lucky enough to spot a real life TV star at one of their shows. Matt Pinfield (see photo) was standing at the door bellowing something incoherent along the lines of "man, that's why I had to get out of the industry!"

Apparently Emily also had a Pinfield sighting at a New York bar. There he was apparently reminding people that he was famous. On second thought, replace "reminding" with "trying to convince."

The concert was okay in and of itself, but entirely ruined by some guy standing behind who sang along, very loudly, the entire time. He looked kind of like what the Bubble Boy's profile picture would look like on Makeoutclub.

Highlight was actually the opening act, The Final Fantasy Band, playing a cover of Peach Plum Pear.

I fear I may have to stop liking The Arcade Fire. Bubble Boy's rendition of Crown of Love may have cured me forever.
