Arcade Fire might have been trying out new material in an out-of-the-way venue, but there was nothing tentative about their take-no-prisoners show in Sherbrooke, Quebec, [Monday] night. Following up on a surprise Montreal show Friday night in front of only 75 invitees, the group held court in the 1,200-capacity Granada Theatre with a drenched-shirt set that had adoring fans hoarse from singing and sore from clapping in time. It was the first of two sold-out shows — they [returned Tuesday night] — in the Eastern townships community, which is populated by 200,000 people and located about 90 miles east of Montreal.

“We’re going to play some new songs tonight,” Win Butler said from the stage three numbers into the set. “Hope that’s OK.”” [Rolling Stone]

Arcade Fire played new songs at the above-mentioned three Canadian shows in the past week. Their next currently scheduled show is June 30th, and they hit Madison Square Garden in NYC on August 4th. Tickets for that show are “on sale soon” according to ArcadeFire.com, but the Ticketmaster American Express presale begins at 10am TODAY (6/9). General sale starts Saturday at 9am (6/12).

The 6/9 & 6/12 on-sales are consistent with what I posted before, so look for the fanclub pre-sale to begin on 6/10. Videos from the Canadian shows and all three setlists, below…
