After a decade of Daft Punk references, white suits and Muppet videos, James Murphy announced the dissolution of LCD Soundsystem a little over a month ago. And now, with ticket scalping drama and four celebratory, three-hour-long shows at Terminal 5 past, their alleged final show ever as a band will take place tonight at MSG. But even if you didn't get tickets, you can watch an exclusive stream of the whole show at Pitchfork starting at 9 p.m. In the meantime, you can check out the collective mourning process going on across the internet. more ›

Last night, LCD Soundsystem played the first of their last shows ever. Across three, one-hour sets, James Murphy and the gang rocked through fan favorites and jam sessions, accompanied by a male chorus, a horn section, and at one point, Reggie Watts. more ›

The conspiracy theory continues, with Reuters' Felix Salmon back on the case of how LCD Soundsystem's final show at MSG got sold out impossibly fast. The short answer is: it didn't. The long answer can be found here, and we'll sum it all up for you below. more ›

Last weekend, LCD Soundsystem announced that their final show as a band would take place at MSG in April, and yesterday, the internet went bonkers when scalpers swooped in and collected an insane number of the tickets to the show. Fans were pissed, and LCD frontman James Murphy was pissed (he sent off some particularly angry Tweets during the day)—but Murphy came up with a solution: LCD Soundsystem announced late last night that they are now playing four more dates at Terminal 5 on March 28, 29, 30 and 31. more ›

We've never handed our tickets to the door guy at a show before and been asked if we wanted to get a table and buy a bottle. But this, I suppose, is what you get when you go see a show on 16th street and 10th ave. Our experience at the new High Line Ballroom felt as if we were living the opening scene of a Law and Order episode, where at any second some over-tanned I-banker would come stumbling out of the bathroom covered in blood as everybody runs towards the exit. The thumping music, the blinding lights and this lingering sense of false superiority reeked of a disaster, but the ambiance aside, both Spankrock and Ghostface put on one hell of a show. Each act managed to cram as many people as possible on the stage, all rocking and flopping about to the music. Even fellow Wu-Tanger RZA came up briefly at the mic for a brief cameo. Live hip-hop shows are often a mixed bag for us, but while this one started out a bit sketch, it ended with a huge bang. (pic via Gaelenh's Flickr) more ›

We're sure you're all busy with office parties and hiding from the cold, cold weather. But it's one of the last weekends of 2005, so try to get out there (besides, who knows if we'll have subways after the weekend is over!) more ›
