Haiti used to be a relevant disaster zone because there was an Earthquake there that stole a lot of disaster buzz from New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina. However, now Japan is sorta the leading buzz disaster, and Libya is also getting a lot of international relations buzz, so Wyclef Jean is basically the only celeb who is still buzzing about Haiti. Anyways, Regine Chassagne is the 'front woman' of the Arcade Fire and she made the Arcade Fire donate $1 million to Haiti, and now she made them prolong their album cycle in order to play a 'free relevant secret popup show in Haiti.

The band plays a 45-minute set at the Hotel Oloffson in Port-Au-Prince

Anyways, the most relevant meme of this performance is Regine Chassagne's 'show stealing' performance + stage presence as she jimmy jangled the tambourine.

In addition, she also played the accordion, trying to prove that she could play more instruments than the Ginger Bro.

In addition, the violin girls in the Arcade Fire also looked visibly jealous of Regine's spotlight, particularly in Haiti.

Is the Haitian earthquake 'still buzzworthy'?
Is Regine staying true to Haiti?
Do u think the band is tired of being Haitian-wave indie?
Is the band jealous of Regine?
Do they try too hard to be 'humanitarian'? Should they just anonymously donate, or are they trying to be the next U2?
Did Win Butler 'rip off' Coldplay's gimmick uniform, or did they rip off Tom Morello [via Rage Against the Machine]?
Who is the #1 Jimmy Jangler in indie? Or are yall on #TeamZooeyJimmyJangle?
