Yesterday (Wednesday) I made a day trip to Marseille for an Arcade Fire concert! It was one of those, How is my life so awesome? moments.
The show was great. It was sort of my first real concert and I enjoyed it very much--it was a spectacular performance on many levels. They also plugged Partners In Health and the Stand with Haiti campaign as part of their show! That just made me love them more (if you've ever read Mountains Beyond Mountains by Tracy Kidder, you understand why the people at Partners in Health are heroes).
I also spent the morning wandering around Marseille a bit. It was really really cold and I didn't get the chance to do much sightseeing, but I passed through the Palais de Longchamp and stopped in a lot of bookstores (of course).
