Arcade Fire and the Webb Weekend

Yay! Our last weekend was super fun. Joe's brothers Brett and Tristan and their wives Amy and Keri came and stayed with us. The special occasion was an Arcade Fire concert in LA. The Webb boys grew up with Win and Will Butler, so this is the third concert we have attended.

Some members of the band play basketball before each concert after the sound check (Win said it helps warm up his voice), so at each show we have attended, the Webbs have joined in the game. The concert was AMAZING! So, the Butlers do treat us super special, but even if you take away the all-access passes, catered food, bubbly water, and posh box that we watched the concert from (reserved for special people like band member wives and movie stars), the concert would still have been amazing. They are so talented! If you are not familiar with the band, you should check this out: http://thewildernessdowntown.com/ At the post concert party, we actually met the guy who designed this for the band. Talk about a bunch of incredibly talented and creative people all at one party.

So here are a few pics: The girls and guys waiting for the band to finish the sound check so that the basketball game could begin. I think it is funny because we are dressed up and the guys are SCRUBBY!


Some sweaty boys and sweaty rock stars. Check out how tall Win Butler is--I am wearing 3 inch heels!


And finally, our sweet view during the concert.
