LCD Soundsystem turned Victoria Park into a dancefloor as the band delivered a carnivalesque set to kick off the second weekend of All Points East. 

Social media is awash with videos showing brutal winds carrying flying tents across Leeds Festival so when the sun smiled down on east London on Friday indie sleaze fans were counting their lucky stars. 

An early highlight of the day came when Jockstrap delivered an electric set of experimental pop to the sunny main stage. Georgia Ellery finished the set wearing a giant pair of monster legs, both baffling and delighting the crowd. 

Later came The Pixies who delivered a crowd-pleasing setlist including Hey, Here Comes Your Man and Wave of Mutilation before the audience sang Where Is My Mind back to them. 

But New York City dance rockers LCD Soundsystem stole the show with a riotous set which took place below a giant disco ball. 

Whilst LCD Soundsystem have only released four albums over the course of nearly 20 years, they’re all brilliant so there was no filler to be found here. 

It was hard to pick out highlights of such a great set but Someone Great had thousands singing back to frontman James Murphy about the death of his therapist while I Can Change, another of the band’s incredibly danceable sad songs, had everyone moving.

After leaving the stage for the world’s shortest intermission the band didn’t disappoint during their encore. 

Kicking off with Dance Yrself Clean was always going to be a winner as the band held the tension in the crowd until a euphoric release. 

They followed this up with the anthemic New York I Love You... before finishing with All My Friends. 

Frontman James Murphy sings ‘And if it’s crowded, all the better because we know we’re gonna be up late’ sang to a crowd of thousands ducking and diving over flailing arms as the band wrapped up an incredible night.
