Shut Up And Play The Hits

On April 2nd, 2011, LCD SOUNDSYSTEM played its final show at Madison Square Garden. LCD frontman James Murphy had made the conscious decision to disband one of the most celebrated and influential bands of its generation at the peak of its popularity, ensuring that the band would go out on top with the biggest and most ambitious concert of its career. The instantly sold out, near four-hour extravaganza did just that, moving the thousands in attendance to tears of joy and grief, with New York Magazine calling the event “a marvel of pure craft” and TIME magazine lamenting “we may never dance again.” SHUT UP AND PLAY THE HITS is simultaneously a document of a once-in-a-lifetime performance and an intimate portrait of Murphy as he navigates both the personal and professional ramifications of his decision.

Wednesdays this summer, June 13th through August 29th, SPACE selects a favorite film to screen on the beautiful rooftop deck at BAYSIDE BOWL, 58 Alder St, Portland.

Films are free and start at sunset.  Seating is on a first come basis. Cash bar and taco truck available. In event of inclement weather, screenings will be moved indoors.
