My favorite musical moment of 2011.
LCD Soundsystem - Final Show
April 2nd, 2011
Madison Square Garden
Show: #3
I can’t believe I got tickets to this show! If you’re not familiar with what happened, basically scalpers sucked up a ton of tickets before fans could get their hands on any. James Murphy lined up a few more shows prior to this one to drive scalper prices down. I got lucky when they released a handful of extra tickets a few days before this show. The seats were in peanut heaven and the view was slightly obstructed, but none of that mattered as I was at the final LCD Soundsystem show!
The show was bittersweet — while it was a great performance, it was hard to say goodbye. LCDS did it right though by going out on top and what a sign off it was! Just check out the brilliant setlist below. I won’t recap the entire show, but my personal highlight were “Get Innocuous!” and “North American Scum” that featured Arcade Fire. I got chills when AF came out, that was truly special.
