Before they played MSG Arcade Fire were just another Montreal band trying to catch a break. This footage shows Arcade Fire playing a Montreal houseparty in 2002, two years before Funeral was released. In this video they're playing "My Heart Is An Apple," a song that appeared on their 2003 self-titled EP. Régine Chassagne has tiny pigtails. And if you look closely, it definitely looks like Clues/Unicorns member Alden Penner is thoughtfully watching the band from the front row. Watch it at Youtube.
