The ‘Reflektor’-heads continue their tradition of covering songs devoted to a certain city.

​Watch Arcade Fire cover Creedence Clearwater Revival’s ‘Hey Tonight’

Arcade Fire’s current world tour is stuck in a rut in some senses, in that by beginning a tradition of covering a song devoted to every city they arrive in, they can’t really stop.

And so it continued last night at California’s Shoreline Amphitheatre in Mountain View, where they ran through a sax-spliced cover of Creedence Clearwater Revival’s ‘Hey Tonight’. The 60s staple was given a rendition that features the band’s Richard Reed Parry on vocals, complete with a Win Butler head mask.

Watch the performance below.
