Your Name Is The Only Word That I Can Say

If you missed it last week, or if you're like me and don't subscribe to BBC television, here's a torrent of video for The Arcade Fire's performance on Later. . . With Jools Holland from May 13, 2005. The band played "Neighborhood #3 (Power Out)" and "Rebellion (Lies)", good choices for making an impression on the British audience. Just finished downloading and viewing this and the video quality is amazing. I was a little disappointed that it was a bit more subtle performance than I was expecting, but it was good nonetheless. Thanks to davechapman for such an amazing post at dimeadozen.org. [photo credit: Hilary Leftick]

Don't you wish people with digital cameras would take longer videos? Yes, storage capacity is always an issue, but on the other hand 10 second clips are such a tease. shesbitter has some brief video clips of Feist at a recent show in at The Black Cat in Washington, DC while A Clearing has some brief video clips of The Arcade Fire at this year's Coachella festival.

3hive spotlights His Name Is Alive. Thanks also to 3hive for pointing to a free limited time download of His Name Is Alive's "Summer Bird" EP over at the artist's official site. The "Summer Bird" EP is a special sneak preview of the forthcoming His Name Is Alive album, containing two album tracks and two non-lp B-sides.

If you missed the Weezer show at the Kool Haus on May 6, 2005 then check out the torrent[flac format] of the show.

And yet another torrent[flac format] of a live show from The Arcade Fire, this time a gig from last year in Phoenix on 2004-12-06. [last two links from Largehearted Boy]

Here's a torrent of a live show by Kathleen Edwards on 7.19.03 playing as part of 88.5 XPN Singer/Songwriter Festival @ The Great Plaza on Penn's Landing in Philadelphia, PA.

Canadian artist K-os will be appearing on BBC 6 Music's Gideon Coe program tomorrow. Sessions start around the 20:40:00 mark(about 8:40 London, England time or about 2:40 Eastern Standard Time). Or else the shows are usually archived for a week. Down the line, live sessions are archived, so don't fret.
