Independent Journalism in Phoenix Needs You
We need to raise $15,000 by August 9 to support the reporting our community depends on. Reader support keeps us independent and is playing a larger role in funding local journalism and shaping what comes next. If you believe independent local journalism matters, make a contribution today.
It’s not often an NBA star can be described as “the short one” in a group photo, but check out this picture of Phoenix Suns star Steve Nash meeting Canadian indie rock outfit Arcade Fire before their show at Comerica Theatre last night.
Yup, Nash is the short one on the far right, next to the band’s big and gangly singer Win Butler. Nash, of course, keeps close tabs on pop culture. He and the band are both Canadian and, obviously everyone from Canada knows each other, so a mutual friend named Pierre probably set this up.
“I met the amazing Arcade Fire b4 the game last night. Great people who brought us luck,” he tweeted.
Who knows what “luck” the Suns need right now as they’ve been eliminated from playoff contention for weeks, and playing garbage time from tip-off on. But, hey, way to stay positive, Steve!
