James Murphy has knee injury

LCD Soundsystem requested Klaxons Jamie Reynolds' wheelchair during their Carling Weekend: Leeds Festival appearance today (August 24).

The band were playing the NME/Radio 1 Stage when singer James Murphy admitted he wanted Reynolds' wheelchair, which the singer has due to a broken leg.

Prior to ’Daft Punk Is Playing In My House’ he said: “I was putting water in our bed before, and I fell over and exploded my knee.”

He then screamed: “I wanna borrow Jamie from Klaxons' wheelchair!”

LCD Soundsystem played:

‘US V Them’
‘Daft Punk Is Playing At My House’
‘Time To Get Away’
‘North American Scum’
‘All My Friends’
