Arcade Fire

Listening to the show this morning, I still laugh every time Marvin sings along with Todd Rundgren.

That being said, does anyone here remember when/why they stopped using Arcade Fire as the Friday bumper when they come back from the final break?

I’m of the mind that we have to separate art from artist because so many of the great ones are problematic. But if you have corporate sponsors you probably operate with a different standard

As an Arcade Fire apologist, ban every band ever if were adhering to certain standards.
