“We could steal time, just for one day”
Back on January 12, we told you about an event in New Orleans billed as: Arcade Fire and Preservation Hall Jazz Band Present “Pretty Things” A Memorial Parade for Bowie.
Here’s an entry from the Arcade Fire FB page on that day:

David Bowie was one of the band’s earliest supporters and champions. He not only created the world that made it possible for our band to exist, he welcomed us into it with grace and warmth. We will take to the grave the moments we shared; talking, playing music and collaborating as some of the most profound and memorable moments of our lives. A true artist even in his passing, the world is more bright and mysterious because of him, and we will continue to shout prayers into the atmosphere he created.

Arcade Fire have now posted a 5:40 film of the parade on their YouTube channel. Check it out here.
