Arcade Fire's new album, Neon Bible, has but one disappointment; the band is still a half step away from being as huge as its promise.

The preliminary hearings will continue tomorrow and are expected to last several days as Butler-Sloss decides what will be included in the inquest and draws up a witness list. Already it looks like more than 30 witnesses will be testifying, including some via video-link from Paris.
