Arcade Fire's Reflektor tour has only made two stops so far but the band is making headlines with their unique cover song choices. The band was in Minneapolis over the weekend when they covered Prince's 1981 single, "Controversy" during the encore of their show.
The group tweeted out a picture of their cover performance which had the band members wearing TV's on their heads that showed pictures of Price and Michele Bachmann.
