While attempting to clear some space on my phone, came across some epic pics. First up, that time I cut about 75 ski masks, got Sharpie drunk, and was a panda with about 40 of my pals. And got covered in champagne, confetti, and tons of trash. That ruled. #RIPLCD #drunkgirls (at Factory Studios)

As LCD Soundsystem wrapped up on top this weekend, slightly a shy of a decade from their start, and armed with enough stellar material to just kill IT for three and a half hours, it barely seems like there is such a thing as a mass-culture anymore.

Set in the empty lobby of a West Village office building, these affairs were legendarily wild, unhinged from any one scene. “We had some of the original graffiti writers, Zulu Nation kids, guys who worked in movies, smelly Brooklyn punks, old dance-music people, Rosie Perez on crutches—it was the weirdest mix of people you could ever see,” Murphy says.

It turns out, James Murphy is Stefan from SNL. It's got everything, Rosie Perez on crutches.
