Arcade Fire
Friday night The Arcade Fire performed at Starlight Theater in Kansas City. We first ate at the Plaza and then enjoyed the music in the open-air theater. The music was absolutely awe-inspiring. They performed many of their songs off Neon Bible as well as the classics from Funeral. It was a complete show incorporating elements such as lighting and videos to make it a whole experience for the viewer.
LCD Soundsystem opened and got everyone very excited and pumped up for the show. Their music completely overwhelmed me. The bass was so intense that I actually felt it. Dancing and enjoying the music was great to get ready for Arcade Fire.
When Arcade Fire came on, the crowd went crazy. Even though we were far back, I was still able to get into the music through the stage show. They had cameras hooked up near each of the artists and big screens behind them to show various images. Arcade Fire actually put on a show rather than just a concert. It made the two-hour drive there and back worth it to see The Arcade Fire live. Easily one of the best concerts that I’ve seen.
