<P> The band performed two secret gigs in New York on April 9 and April 12, 2010, at the Music Hall of Williamsburg (Brooklyn) and Webster Hall in New York respectively . James Murphy made an impassioned plea with fans and industry attendees at the New York gig not to leak the album to the internet in advance of the May 17 release date . It was reported in the NME that Murphy went down on his knees onstage and stated: </P> <P> "If you got a copy of the record early and you feel like sharing it with the rest of the world, then please don't...We spent two years making this record and we want to put it out when we want to put it out . I don't care about money--after it comes out, give it to whoever you want for free but until then, keep it to yourself ." </P> <P> For the 2010 edition of Record Store Day, the band released 1000 copies of a single - sided 12" single of This Is Happening track "Pow Pow ." When speaking to The Quietus in August, Murphy insisted that LCD Soundsystem would continue to record music, stating: "We'll do some 12" s and things like that . I just need to get away from it being a big thing ." </P> <P> On February 8, 2011, LCD Soundsystem announced on its website that it would be playing its last show ever on April 2 at Madison Square Garden in New York City . When tickets went on pre-sale and official sale, there were widespread problems with availability and online ordering . Following the immediate sale of all available tickets, LCD Soundsystem announced that they would be playing four warm - up shows at New York's Terminal 5 . The setlists at those shows were nearly identical to the setlist of the final show at Madison Square Garden . The final song performed by LCD Soundsystem at the farewell show was "New York, I Love You but You're Bringing Me Down". The show lasted almost four hours with appearances by Arcade Fire, Reggie Watts and others . </P>
