LCD Soundsystem! @ El Rey

Saw LCD Soundsystem at El Rey last night with Amritz and Sarah. Soooo good live. Just as good as Coachella but better because I was way closer to the front and had a clear view of James Murphy working his musical genius.

The opening band- Yacht was pretty good. The kid is sooo energetic. He had an ibook, pressed play then went out dancing nonstop and singing, sounded similar to “Of Montreal” kinda stuff:

From what I recall, LCD performed:

Tribulations
Movement (YAY! one of my favorites)
Thrills
Great Release
Yeah (a reeeeeally long cool version)
Watch the Tapes
Us V Them
Time to Get Away
North American Scum
All of My Friends
Get Innocuous!
New York, I love you but you’re bringing me down…

They did a 3 song encore and Murphy said that’s 2 songs more than the night before. It was a special night.
