LCD Soundsystem "Shut Up and Play the Hits"

I had the good fortune of going to the last LCD Soundsystem concert at Madison Square Garden.   Below is the trailer for a documentary they made of the 48 hours surrounding the show.  It gives me chills for 95% of the piece, then it unfortunately takes a turn to make the doc look like a retail plug for James Murphy's solo project.  But whatever, it's still going to be amazing.

I posted this video a couple years ago, but I thought about it tonight and it's worth a repost.  


A bike should look good on its own, but it is incomplete until somebody rides it.

Happy Friday!

Here's a nice vignette on specialty chocolate makers Mast Brothers and their cacao suppliers in the Dominican Republic.  I'm pretty sure I've seen their chocolates at Venice's Local 1205.  Also, Mast brother, your gf is super cute.  Also, great cue - Tesfa-Maryam Kidane's "Tezeta."
