Event was decent as a live venue. Don't think LCD ever played anywhere big in Brighton? Pretty sure they played C2 around that time.
It was a really good live venue I thought.

They played the C2 twice I think. I saw them the second time and my wife saw them the first. Second time was 10 years ago on 2nd album I think. This was as big as it got in Brighton for them.
Ok, here comes saddo. As far as I remember they only ever played Brighton 3 times and they were all on or before the release of the first album.
Aug '04 - Concorde (I was there - at the first LCD gig in Brighton etc....)
Feb '05 - Concorde
Dec '05 - Event 2
I saw them 3 more times, twice on Sound of Silver, both at Brixton and then my final time in the tent at Bestival (after 48 hours without sleep and off the back of a bad trip), which I think was their last UK gig. They got progressively better, the last show being one of the best gigs I've ever been at, despite my extreme tiredness and at the time me (quite wrongly) thinking 'This Is Happening' was a bit of a let down.
If they did play Brighton on Sound of Silver I must have been away.
Not that I'm obsessive or anything.
I've seen them three times, once at Glastonbury and twice at Brixton on the Sound of Silver tour wouldn't mind a trip abroad this year to see them.
In retrospect I made a poor decision in not seeing them at the Event in 05 I remember it being advertised but decided against.
Primavera would be a fantastic festival to see them at.
I would put any amount of money you like on them being announced for Primavera.
It's even more nailed on than Glastonbury (which I suspect is pretty nailed on.)
If they play Glastonbury they'll be popping up at numerous festivals on the European summer fezzie circuit I reckon. I'll be keeping my fingers crossed for MELT!
An ATP curated by LCD Soundsystem would sure be a thing.
Could start by getting as many acts namechecked in 'Losing My Edge' as possible.
I'm going to say this again. Isn't this the best music news in ages?
