I don't know if they perform in Canada or what not, but I would really love to see these guys live. I doubt it would happen in the near future though.
You don't have to wait for them to tour to see them you can form a band I think they franchized their group where anyone can an Art Brut band. (The best tribute band I saw btw was from Canada - "The Musical Box.") The one odd thing I noticed about Art Brut is that Freddy Feedback is only seen for no more than three seconds in any video I've ever seen, that's official videos and recorded studio performances.

U2 - Same reason I dislike Coldplay. Very boring (sometimes to the point of treading muzak territory), and there are bands that do what they do a lot better.
"They only sell records that have charted, and Art Brut, they only just started."
