Following a handful of reunion shows in New York and Pomona over the past few weeks, LCD Soundsystem finally played their much-ballyhooed headlining set at Coachella last night. Near the end of their discography-spanning performance, Murphy interpolated part of fellow reunited Coachella headliners Guns N' Roses' "November Rain" during "New York, I Love You But You're Bringing Me Down," and they also paid tribute to Murphy's late collaborator David Bowie by covering "Heroes." (They closed with "All My Friends," of course.) Watch below.
