Hot Chip Apologise Over Crowd Issues At LCD Soundsystem Gig

Hot Chip have aplogised after fans were subject to long queues at the opening night of their co-headlining tour with LCD Soundsystem.

Many fans were forced to queue for up to half an hour in cold conditions to get into Alexandra Palace in London last night (November 10).

The queues, which continued at the bars and toilets inside the venue, meant some fans missed Hot Chip's performance.

In a message on Twitter, Hot Chip said: “Apologies for frustrations over queuing to get in, for drinks, toilets etc - we were unaware of these issues, will look into what happened.”

As previously reported on Gigwise, headliners LCD Soundsystem were due on stage at 9pm but didn't start their performance until 9.35pm.

Despite the delay, the band, led by James Murphy, delivered a crowd-pleasing set. You can see highlights from both band's performances on Gigwise below.

LCD Soundsystem and Hot Chip's UK dates continue tonight (November 11) at the Coronet in London, before touring.
