James Murphy NOT DJing for FNO tonight, VPL has Leo FitzPatrick & members of Chairlift/Violens/MGMT instead

Chairlift @ All Points West 2009 (more by Tim Griffin)

After realizing that I couldn’t find any info today confirming that James Murphy was DJing a VPL block party on Mercer Street tonight (9/8), I looked into it a little more and found out that the block party is cancelled, James Murphy included. Instead, and as listed at the Fashion’s Night Out website, VPL (5 Mercer Street) is having this @ 6:30PM — “Seldom House: A Covers Set by Caroline Polachek (Chairlift), Jorge Elbrecht (Violens), Will Berman (MGMT) and Leo Fitzpatrick.” That’s inside the store.

If you still want to some DFA action, Holy Ghost! plays the Prada store @ 6PM.

You can also catch Andrew VanWyngarden from MGMT aka DJ iDEATH with DJ Patrick from Chairlift entertaining people for Fashion’s Night Out at Curve @ 8PM (that’s at 83 Mercer St).

Also Tanlines AND MNDR AND Freelance Whales play Theory (38 Gansevoort St) starting @ 6PM.

Upcoming Chairlift shows are listed HERE.
