I am gutted. I’ve seen LCD Soundsystem twice recently. I saw them a mere 2 weeks ago. And there was no sign of them breaking in any of the best songs from This Is Happening. And now, here they are, at the Wellmont, playing ‘Dance Yrself Clean’, ‘You Wanted a Hit’ and ‘Home’, three contenders [...]

Mark Ronson & Business Intl – [...]
