Live music - Arcade Fire

Accompanied by a light show worthy of an alien invasion and towering geysers of confetti, Arcade Fire’s first Irish concert in nearly three years is an avant-garde tour de force.
Headlining a near-sold out Marlay Park, the Montreal six-piece deliver a rollickingly off-beam performance, the centre piece of which — a symbolic ripping up of Miley Cyrus’s portrait by a man dressed as the Pope — seems both specific to Ireland and a cooly calculated internet meme in the making.
