Would be cool to see one of the big Wembley shows or a European Festival.
And check this LCD Soundsystem story out.

It’s pretty amazing how fast they sold out Madison Square Garden. I think I’m going to post it’s own thread, just to give people an idea about how indie bands that most people have never heard of can sell out a huge arena. At the same time, top 40 hitmakers can rarely tour.
Muse is huge in Europe, much bigger in Europe (especially the UK) than they are in the US, and they’re bigger in Europe, live than any band is live in the US. Leaving out the rolling stones and u2 and bands like that. But of current bands, Muse is bigger in Europe than any band is in the US. And I’m very much in favor of them winning the Grammy.
I’m still looking down this list. Great stuff. Jack White of the White Stripes won a Grammy for art direction. Tia Carrera from the movie Wayne’s World won a Grammy for Hawaiian.
The sound issue is what my have tricked me into thinking, and I have an older tv to think that Arcade Fire sounded bad.
