The show marked Arcade Fire's first performance since multiple sexual misconduct allegations were made against lead vocalist Win Butler over the weekend (via Pitchfork), which he has "vehemently" denied.
Yesterday (30 August) Ottawa City News reported that some Canadian radio stations including CBC Music FM, Sirius XM channel CBC Radio 3 and Toronto's Indie88 will "pause" playing Arcade Fire music "until we learn more about the situation."
