"Don't forget to write, let us know what you're up to over the next few years." –Win Butler of Arcade Fire

Walking across the Triborough bridge. It smells like summer in New York—which isn’t a good thing. But we are making this pilgrimage together—with the rest of these well dressed figures for the final night of touring for Arcade Fire and LCD Soundsystem.

The show is loud and perfect. “New York I love you---but you’re bringing me down”. Arcade Fire is a cathartic encounter. Takes the air out of me, when you hold me from behind during Neighborhood #1—“Then I’ll dig a tunnel…from my window to yours.”

My feet are numb from hours of standing. You hold my hand the whole way home, the headlights of the cars guiding our way back to the city.
