Arcade Fire slip on the headliner slippers with comfort

No 'wow' factor for the Canadians but extra helpings of class

Gavin McInally - 27 August 2010

The Canadians didn't have the buzz Oasis, Iron Maiden or Green Day might have generated in past years but by the time the eight members started tearing into their various instruments there wasn't a gripe to be heard from the crowd.

Dave Grohl favourite 'No Cars Go' was a highlight as the band plundered their limited catalogue.

It's a performance which proved their status in the elite league rather than the usual confirmations of greatness Leeds is used to.

Leeds Festival 2010 continues tomorrow (28 Aug) with Blink 182, Klaxons and many more...
