(I've been listening to a lot of of) LCD Soundsystem's new album "Sound of Silver" (which) is (officially) out on DFA/Capitol Records on March 20th.

...the follow-up to the massively acclaimed and eponymous 2005 debut, was recorded over the summer of 2006 in a farm in upstate New York by Murphy and visitors from the big city including live band members Nancy Whang, Pat Mahoney and Tyler Pope. There, between silver foil-covered walls, nine tracks were crafted...

A Spring tour announcement is on the way, but in the meantime we know that tickets (thx Bill) go on sale Friday at noon for a March 30th LCD show at Bowery Ballroom in NYC.

It's also rumored that LCD are playing a Brooklyn show some time around then too, and speaking of a Brooklyn show - Night Time presents Carl Craig and DFA DJ Tim Sweeney at Studio B Friday night. And then of course there's DFA DJ Juan Maclean with Professor Murder at Hiro Ballroom TONIGHT.

just because the show shows up in the search doesn't mean there are tickets. when you click on it, it says "none available" :(

i just got them. go to the main ticketweb page. and thank you brooklynvegan!!!

I was still getting to the credit card input screen around 12:15, but who knows if the transaction actually would have gone through. In shows like these, the site is so inconsistent and unreliable that it comes down to luck and/or skill.

There are lots of massive real-time processing websites out there run by all sorts of corporations which work fine with 1000x the volume; there is really no excuse for TicketWeb's performance no matter what the demand is for a particular show.

Still available...It seems ticketweb can't handle the volume so they shut down a certain show and reopen it later when all the orders have been processed,
