We're here! I'm so excited! Here we are, at the end of My Week! And my most favourite band in the whole wide worrrrrrrld!
It's The Arcade Fire, of course!
Now, on August third, 2010, I took the day off work. I went into town to give blood. Also I bought the first couple of Scott Pilgrim books. But it was also the day I turned 19 and a half! And, making the best half-birthday present ever, The Arcade Fire released their new album, "The Suburbs!"
Oh, I was so excited!!!
So anyway, in Cornwall, there's only one place where you can buy music anymore, and that's Wal-Mart. And Wal-Mart is not cheap when it comes to music. Also, they don't usually have albums the day they come out. Which sucks. But I figured I'd try it anyway. And they did have it! And it only cost $13.74! Holy shot-nurkers!
So naturally, I bought it.
Meanwhile, Live88.5 was having "Arcade Fire Day," in which they played a song from the new album every hour on the hour. When they did, you had to text "Arcade Fire" and your first and last name to 885885 for a chance to win the new album. I tried a couple times, before getting to Wal-Mart. Then, a couple days later, I got a call from 88.5 telling me I had won the new album! w00t!
So then I had to go into Ottawa. But that was fine, because we got to hang out with Laura! And then I had two of the album, so I gave one (the one I paid for) to my sister, instead of paying her for gas.
Now, I've decided to feature the first single from the album. It's called "Ready to Start." I love it, and when I heard it for the first time, I almost died! Good thing I didn't, though, because then, who would have finished milking the cows? Not the cows, that's for sure!
