Over the past few decade SNL has brought us plenty of great musical performances and last Saturday’s was no exception as Arcade Fire deliver a blissful performance and hit the stage at 30 Rock.With host Scarlett Johansson introducing them, the band played through hits off their latest album, The Suburbs. He started with “We Used to Wait” with Win Butler at the helm,and the stage could not contain him or his feelings The singer took the microphone, and first went and stared down the camera in front of the stage. He then went and stood on an empty chair in the front row -- all the while never missing a beat. For those who say that indie music lacks any feeling or soul, here is exhibit one to dismiss that myth.
They went on to play “Sprawling II (Mountains over Mountains)” with Regine taking over singing duties. But the best moment of the whole evening may have been the digital short that they were a part of.
