Hi Wlllzer808
Robbie Robertson wrote the weight I was just saying that Arcade Fires lyrics in songs such as Intervention & Neon Bible can be songs that Bob wrote when he was into writing protest music

@JLVDRUM but these aren't dylans lyrics or are they? The band made this song famous, not Dylan? Who actually wrote the song?
-
Love it.

@w1ldtr1ck Im absolutely in love with Win!!
-
the kid behind me had been tipped off by one of the security guards that Win was going to go on stage but we didn't believe him. But when Mavis started saying something about a surprise all you could hear was this small section of the crowd screaming because we realized the kid was actually right. And then Win came on stage and the crowd went crazy! It was such an awesome moment!

you have to love win butler

I didn't notice it when I was there live, but apparently their drummer is a ghost.

I was so fortunate to see this performance live!
Win is starting to be a very respected Musician and very well deserved his lyrics are starting to rival Bob Dylan’s, if you don’t know you have not been paying attention. Compare Intervention with Masters of War.
