i was looking through photos recently and realized i never did a write-up on the lcd soundsystem concert at the tabernacle last october. my brother and i were pumped to see what a current lcd show was all about and gub came along since sleigh bells were opening up.

i have to say lcd soundsystem was quite impressive! they were great in the same way that broken social scene is great live. they tour with lots of musicians who are able to play all of the intricate parts of songs. plus that many live instruments, especially playing dance music, makes the experience so much better than an album can convey.

lcd opened up with dance yrself clean, which is the first song off their latest album. it was a fairly simple setup as the song built up until all of the lights and instruments came crashing in for the awesome upbeat ending. it was a great way to open a show and set the tone for a fun, dance-filled evening.

lcd soundsystem put on a great concert! they sounded amazing and had an awesome light show to go along, i’ll definitely go see them if they tour again.

sleigh bells opened up and were awesome as usual! there was lots of smoke, bright flashing lights, and extremely loud rock music! their live show was very fitting for a venue like the tabernacle. we were glad that we got to see them again.
