Great Show!
I love the song 'call the police' but they had this wall of keyboards and percussion that was just amazing. I will totally see them next time they are in my area!

LCD Soundsystem are Great!
This band has been around for a while and they don't disappoint. I've seen them a few times over the last few years and my friends and I always have a blast. And having this show at the Greek was fantastic. This is a great venue!

Outstanding, amazing, awesome
Great show. An amazing range of music, with nods to Joy Division, Gang of Four, Kraftwork and more. Was blown away. They made a point of playing the longest set possible as allowed by the venue, right down to the last second as shown by a large digital clock that Murphy brought onto stage. Enjoyed the Greek Theater as a venue, down on the floor close to the stage. I've been seeing bands in small venues for nearly 40 years and this was for sure one of the best.

Music that Moves you ....
The Greek is as good as an outdoor venue gets* we were on the first step up and the space couldn't have been better - great view and space to groove!! I was blown away by LCD in the fall ... and this one could've been better (i like the Greek waaaay more than Bill Graham). Good folks all around

One word
Awesome. I love how Murphy cranks up the bass and the volume so you can literally feel the music, but not in a way that makes your ears hurt.

LCD Sountsystem Was Top 5 Concerts of All time!
This was the first time I've seen a concert at the Greek Theatre-U.C. Berkeley and it was amazing. The sound quality was on point. The view was amazing and I wish I could have come back the following night to see the show again! I've been to countless festivals and concerts in genres' across the board, but this might honestly have been one of the top 5 concerts I've ever been too. It doesn't hurt that I'm a huge LCD Soundsystem fan. The only draw back is that in on the floor/standing room, my fiance and I tried to get a little closer and some lady literally asked us to not stand in an open area, because he friends were in the bathroom and she was "saving" the spots at a rock concert in the standing room only area! We tried to be respectful as possible and there was plenty of room, but it seemed pretty ridiculous to ask people to not have fun or dance at one of the most unique bands in modern history.

Never miss a Sunday show
I was so glad they added a third night so I could go. James Murphy is amazing and Nancy, Pat, Al and co. absolutely killed it. Without a doubt the Greek is the best venue in the Bay Area.
LCD SOUNDSYSTEM IN CONCERT:
Back in the early '00s fans fell hard and fast for the funky electronica and rebellious rock and roll spirit LCD Soundsystem brought to their superb albums and killer live shows. The fun ended in 2011 when the band hung up their guitars and unplugged their drum machines, but not all was lost—legendary frontman James Murphy announced a reunion in 2015, and fans can't wait for LCD to blast some seriously funky stuff when they return to the stage. With headlining sets at several world-class festivals slated for 2016, the band has fans chomping at the bit to dance the night away to favorites like “Losing My Edge”, “Daft Punk Is Playing at My House”, and “North American Scum”. LCD Soundsystem is sure to deliver the party-worthy passion that ticket buyers love to feel on the dance floor, and fans can't wait for their epic comeback party.
BACKFROUND SNAPSHOT:
James Murphy bounced around the NYC music scene for more than a decade before gaining traction with the DJ project Death from Above, which saw him spinning everything from Daft Punk to Can. After seeing a younger DJ aping his unique mixes, he was inspired to write the snarky, humorous “Losing My Edge” in 2002 and LCD Soundsystem was born. He continued to cut successful singles and assembled a group of musicians to recreate his songs in a live setting, a move that thrilling both indie rockers and underground dance fans. Murphy's underground fame soon gave way to crossover success—the band's 2005 self-titled debut and 2007 album Sound of Silver both received Grammy nominations for Best Electronica/Dance Album. After the release of their 2010 album This Is Happening, Murphy decided to step out of the limelight and announced the group’s final show the following year. The hiatus only lasted four years, as the songwriter posted a heartfelt letter to his fans in 2015 telling them he had come up with a wealth of new material and decided that his former band would be the best outlet for it. With LCD Soundsystem headlining major festivals like Coachella in 2016, fans can’t wait to pick up where this dance party left off.
