All My Friends

Check out this article on Slate about LCD Soundsystem's song "All My Friends." The song--like every song on Sound of Silver--is fantastic. Like Talking Heads channeling the best drum & bass around. And I have a special place in my heart for anyone who can so devastatingly capture the melancholy of the aging cool guy. (For the serious fans, Franz Ferdinand has released a cover of the song that really does take the piss from New Order.)

Losing My Edge

Man am I stupid. I've had tickets for LCD Soundsystem for weeks. Been waiting for it. Looking forward to it. Tix were on the fridge in plain site. It was in my PDA: June 13. I was going by myself, but that was cool. LCD Soundsystem would be worth it.

Except the show was on May 13. And I missed it.

Stupid, stupid, stupid!

Sigh. Here's the video anyway.
