Montreal – C’est magnifique!
The U2log.com staff is having so much fun in Canada right now that we can’t bother with filing proper reports. We’ll distract you with these great pics of Arcade Fire and U2 in Montreal instead and hope you’ll forgive our lack of tour updates at the moment. What could we say now that you probably don’t already know? Arcade Fire is fabulous — three-ring circus fabulous. U2 remain rock’s hottest ticket. Canada is cold.

Arcade Fire rocks! The fact that they played Streets before they came on stage was hilarious. And they had a Flag Guy! But Arcade Fire aside, Saturday’s Montreal show was the best U2 show I’ve ever been to. The energy was incredible, and Bad was just amazing with Daniel Lanois. It was all worth the 12 hours in the sub-zero driving snow! I wish I was still in Montreal to do it all again tonight.
