The B-52's helped turn New York City's Hammerstein Ballroom into a funky little shack (or Funplex, if you will) on Saturday night, heading up a party-band dream bill that also included Hercules and Love Affair and, on the decks, LCD Soundsystem's James Murphy and Pat Mahoney as Special Disco Version.

Both the B's and Hercules have a healthy portion of dates ahead of them, with the former sticking to the West Coast, and the latter jetting off to Europe at the end of the week. Special Disco Version, meanwhile, DJ at Santos Party House in NYC on November 5. Hopefully they'll be celebrating that one guy winning that thing on Tuesday.
