Daft Punk...Not at Coachella but Playing US

[amyzzz]

fuck it; i booked a room at the vagabond; it was only $89.
That sounds about right.

[gazercmh]

"The Los Angeles Sports Arena is open from 8pm – 4:30am"
I answered my own question, and maybe more of yours too

where'd you get that info?

i sure hope the show doesn't go until the wee hours. i have to drive back to san diego afterward.

[phoenixsky]

Bonaventure, anyone?

[fober]

What are you guys lining up for again?

[suprefan]

where'd you get that info?

i sure hope the show doesn't go until the wee hours. i have to drive back to san diego afterward.

That has to be the Sports Arena website, you can pull up random info like that. Or maybe call them and find out from an automated message. I will say this, its a Saturday night show and they will be able to make the show as a whole last longer, so therefore Ratatat and Sebastian/Kavinsky could get more stage time so its not all rushed and then DP gets a long time also. Thats going to be the problem with the Greek show since theres a curfew at 11pm.

[ficklecycle]

I'm ready for an all nighter.

[captncrzy]

Drinking in LA ends at 2, right?

[suprefan]

Drinking in LA ends at 2, right?

Correct

[captncrzy]

It's good to know that it sounds like its going to run late; I'm going to book a late flight out on Sunday then.

[ficklecycle]

Supre, I looked at my ticket and it doesn't say "no cameras/recording".

So what's the word on camera policy?
Psychic, any help please?

[xbnmx]

Lining up all day for the floor at a fucking dance show? Retardation.

[suprefan]

Supre, I looked at my ticket and it doesn't say "no cameras/recording".

Psychic, any help please?

I swear I thought I saw that on there, I looked at mine too right now and its not there.(too many tickets, it can become a problem) The policy technically is none are allowed, but who knows what they will say at the show. I am only taking one of mine in as it is. I wanna know the length of time their set is anyway, then I could film the Berkeley show in its entirety.

Tell that to the idiots who camped out all day in the Sahara for Madonna last year.

[RickeyinLA]

SPOILER:

Kavinsky and SebastiAn will be mixing in the center of the arena behind the soundboard with the lights on whilst the Ratatat setup awaits on the stage in front of Daft's curtain. They are dropping Justice and an assortment of Ed Banger tuneage in their sets. The DP show is 100 minutes+.
This show will SLAY.

[suprefan]

Thats fine, not a big spoiler, you didnt say what was performed by DP so I am not too pissed.. I am glad I know the time for it so I can do this in Berkeley.

[vogina]

That sounds about right.

yeah, 89 bucks a night, compared to 189 for radisson suck my balls hotel

where'd you get that info?

i just pulled up last years monster massive times. yeah its totally different thing, but if doors open at 8, and show at 9.. i don't know.. if kavinsky and cbass play at the same time for an hour, rat for another hour that would atleast put daft starting at 12, thats counting any inbetween minutes in my opinion, but its reasonable to say that the whole thing could go on to the wee hours of the morning, maybe not 4am, but in the am.. dont you think?

i sure hope the show doesn't go until the wee hours. i have to drive back to san diego afterward.
:eek:

What are you guys lining up for again?

yeah seriously, why?

i just went off the monster massive time last year. i'm sure you can easily get a live operator to give you that information, or call the city hall office, police dpt. etc etc. but laziness overwhelms me while opinion and reasonable judgment can answer this.

if doors open at 8, show starting at 9(i read that either of golden voice, ticketmaster, or somewhere else with credit)

if cbass and kavinksky play together for an hour, rat for another hour that puts daft playing at 11, that still pushes them into the am. so its safe to say it will go into the wee hours of the morning, maybe not 4am, dont you think?

[vogina]

i hope we take over the vegabond.. i see it happening with people on and off this message board.

We need to find out how long Klaxons got at Bercy, then we can gauge their set time. I doubt Ratatat gets an hour, probably like 45 mins tops.

[Trick Loves The Kids]

i can see lining up. i don't want to be stuck in the back with the fucking nubs who are gonna nod their heads and watch the screens, i wanna be up front with the real fucking fans who are gonna crowd surf and take mad drugs and shit.

There's no soundboard in the center of the arena at the Sports Arena though.

At least I don't think so.

Where else would the house engineer be to do sound? Name one arena show that doesnt have a soundbooth set up in the middle of the floor?

[xbnmx]

Why someone would "take mad drugs" and sit cramped and overheating with a bunch of people thrashing and crowd surfing into their head is beyond me. I like to have room to dance, drink, and smoke plus the freedom to go take at piss at my leisure.

[Boourns]

Oh hell yes, I'll be there early, too. That would be so sweet if all us Coachella boardies and our friends took up the front of the line.

As for party favors, this is the one and only time I could imagine taking, um, the sixth letter in Coachella, so hopefully I can score some. My contact only ever deals with weed.

[captncrzy]

i hope we take over the vegabond.. i see it happening with people on and off this message board.

Is there a bar at the Vagabond? Or maybe one right by it? I'm sure I'll be parked in it. I don't line up for shows anymore; somehow I always end up with a really good spot no matter what time I get there.

Dude, its so obvious why someone would drop e for this show, thats the way half the crowd did it at Bang in Miami, and i was almost front row... So worth it

then stay out of the front 'cause ima drop bows on all y'all.

no fucking joke when they play music sounds better with you i'm basically gonna flip the fuck out

[xbnmx]

This is why I like hippie crowds.

[Boourns]

Fuck. I might not be able to go to this. I may be working out of state starting next week until August on a movie shoot. Sigh.

[Somewhat Damaged]

What movie?

[Boourns]

It's all very indie and low budget. But it's work. And money.

[RickeyinLA]

You're looking to score some F? What is that - fruit? I can hook you up.

EDIT - I get it - the sixth letter in Coachella. Ooops. Can't help.

[rage patton]

So does anyone know what order the set times are going to be for each? or is all just speculation at this point?

From what I gather so for, it is going to go...
Rapture
Sabastian + Kavinsky
Daft Punk

or...

Sabastian + Kavinsky
Rapture
Daft Punk

[xbnmx]

No way it's either one of those, Daft Punk's gotta be playing first.

dam. BUT!the vegebond is not too far from the radisson, we could hit up there bar. it would be the nearest, and closest to the venue also. win win situation!!

[crazzz2007]

Is a room at the Standard too pretentious?

(not that I was planning on staying there)

pretentious? this is l.a. everyone here is pretentious. the most pretentious people here are those who don't think they're pretentious.

[captncrzy]

i hope there is.

That's a decent idea.

But...

shady bars=good clean fun.

[fober]

The only thing I'm basing my opinion on is the photos of Monster Massive.

I don't remember seeing a sound booth.

Of course I don't know which acts at Monster Massive would even need a sound engineer.

EDIT: Never mind, it looks like there is one at the tail end of this photo:

[ficklecycle]

That would be a bummer being up front for the stage and having Sebastian and Kavinsky all the way behind us. At least we'd still hear the music.

[summerkid]

still dont know why some of you guys want to be in the front row.

[ficklecycle]

I'm not planning on being front row. Probably two or three rows back for me. But I wanna go in early so I can get the shopping, peeing/crapping, and buying food ready and I won't have to leave during somebody's set.

[ficklecycle]

http://slamonline.com/online/wp-content/uploads/2006/08/34Shaq.jpg

WHY NOT. My plan is this, I am in the front for L.A. but since it will be the same thing in Berkeley I can just watch that one and film it. Good enough?

I love that you've planned on peeing AND crapping.

Second chuckle of the day. Very niiiice.

Wait... people actually crowd surf at Daft Punk shows? Thats hilarious.
I am now even more incredibly stoked for the show!

[suprefan]

Well I think it was more people would crowd surf at a big dance event like this. People got crowd surfed during Justice how about that?

[rage patton]

Well I saw pic of Busy P crowd surfing.
But I guess I havent really ever been to an electronic/dance show like this before.
The only acts I caught in the Saharah this year were MSTRKRFT, and I saw no crowd surfers. As well as part of The Rapture, and I think I remember seeing a crowd surfer or two.
But seeing as Daft Punk shows are pretty much legendary, I could immagine the energy and the atmosphere would make you want to crowd surf.
42 Days! ...Too Long.

but Grrr I really wanted them to add Digital Love to their set.

I emailed another planet and asked about this... so for the greek at least, the Rapture kick things off, then Sebastian & Kavinsky spin between sets, then Daft Punk.

I posted this a while back but it'd take me a while to look through all those pages, and my computer battery is about to die.

you should edit that post. I would consider that a spoiler.

I wish I still was, but whatever. And yeah I went in blind last year, so why not do the same this time? If its almost the same set I would rather not know and see how that goes compared to knowing already and making expectations unreal.

Uh, "Spoiler" I guess...








From NME's article, it's downright identical to Coach's set, which is really disappointing to me. Sure, it'll be cool to relive it or whatever, but I'm sure I'm not the only one that wanted a new mix since an entire year has passed. It'll be fun no matter what, but c'mon.

VICE just put up an interview with the robots. http://vice.typepad.com/vice_magazine/2007/06/interview_daft_.html#more

Currently slaughtering festivals all over the world with their amazing robot revue, French dance titans Daft Punk are about to release their first feature film, Electroma, next month. We won't mention the fact that it's an hour of no dialogue, because that might put you off seeing it. We will say that it's a surreal space odyssey in which the robots try to become human. They almost never do interviews but we managed to sit down with Daft Punk to find out more about the movie...

Vice: You've had the robots for a while and have done on all your own music videos. Why bother to do a real deal movie?
Thomas: When we started to work on our first music videos with directors like Michel Gondry, Spike Jonze, Roman Coppola, we were always interested in a hands on approach to the process. On the last album's videos I began directing single scenes myself. When that was done, we started to think it was a good moment to experiment with film, in much the same way as we approached music in the years before, in a very free way, not caring about any rules or what already existed, just having fun creating something in a way that hadn't been done before. There are, of course, influences. We are not inventing but approaching things existing already in a way they had not been done before.

Now that everyone is ripping you off, does it make creating something original hard?
Yes, not only for the creator, but as a consumer it becomes harder to define yourself by what you like. There is no underground, it has become Catcher In The Rye or A Clockwork Orange for everybody. It is good in terms of cultural awareness but it becomes impossible to use what you know as a cultural marker.

There is no dialogue. What's the deal with that?
We were more concerned with imagery than plot and heavily influenced by Surrealism – Magritte for the cinematography and his very physical subjects and Escher, you know, all black and white staircases looping into labyrinths. When we started taking images out of our heads we weren't worried about arranging logical connections between them.

But this isn't video art, it's a movie, right?
Video art is the same all the time because audiences do not know how to receive it. Film is the same all the time, because audiences don't understand what is possible. Both are slaves to the economy and industry which produce them. But, of the two evils, we were more interested in the thrill of going to an old, dark movie theatre to see a cult film at its only midnight showing.

Interesting. Why not give it an original score?
The retro-futurism aspect: we felt our music would betray us. We wanted Electroma to be impossible to date. You can date almost any movie to within 5-10 years of its making so, without it being the ultimate purpose, we liked the idea of really shuffling that round, which is as much to do with style as technology or technique. This is also why we shot in California, we wanted the two extremes of this very cult Hollywood imagery, combining the warmth of Easy Rider to the coldness of 2001…. When you make all these things collide you end up with something people can't conceive.

* Electroma is released nationwide in selected cinemas at the end of July and released on DVD on September 3.

was it? i couldn't tell cause the computer i'm working on now doesn't have sound.

[gazercmh]

so i gave in and listened to audio of the paris show. it's virtually the same as the coachella set, which i've listened to dozens of times.

so i guess the l.a. show brings the upside of watching people enjoy the great music and the new robot suits, along with a couple of slightly different musical bits i imagine.

is that worth it?

i guess so.

Duh.

i know the focus is pretty strong for LA right now... but i thought i might throw this out there for anyone in the midwest or coming into Chicago for Lollapalooza.

DJ Falcon is doing a set @ Smartbar on August 3rd. coincidentally, the show is starting shortly after Daft Punk is scheduled to finish their set @ Lollapalooza. what with the encore now featuring a DJ Falcon / Bangalter collaboration, who wants to hope against hope that Daft Punk shows up for this after-party of sorts?

im not sure to be honest, it was on the tour dates thing until the show obviously but they never put it up in colors or whatever. digitalism opened, it was fuckin great.

and to be honest most of it has been being in the right country at the right time haha. if i could afford it the list would be much longer

[superfiction]

so i gave in and listened to audio of the paris show. it's virtually the same as the coachella set, which i've listened to dozens of times.

so i guess the l.a. show brings the upside of watching people enjoy the great music and the new robot suits, along with a couple of slightly different musical bits i imagine.

is that worth it?

i guess so.

well if you hadnt listened to it, the fact that there was some new shit thrown in was hella exciting in the context of actually being there. and epecially with the addition of an encore to me it was as exciting as seeing thme the first time

Alright, so I've been reading these boards since before this years Coachella and finally signed up today. Procrastinating is a bitch! Due to the insane hype for Daft Punks return I got 2 tix for the LA show. I barely know any of their material however have seen videos of the pyramid and heard the stories and just know it will be one helluva good time. I will be coming from PHX for the weekend and was wondering where a good hotel to stay would be and what are some cool bars, clubs, etc. to hangout at on Fri or maybe Sat after the show? Any help would be much appreciated, thx! 25 days and counting!!!

Kanye West is the new Paff Duddy.

[rage patton]

The video should read Kanye West ft Daft Punk
Its cool Daft Punk are actually in the video though.
Why does it take place in Japan?
...
Fuck you Kanye West!

[suprefan]

Yeah, I am getting that shirt.

[ficklecycle]

That shirt is friggin balla.

[shakermaker113]

I regret not buying a daft punk shirt at coachella. I never buy band shirts nowadays, but this tour I will definitely be getting one. not sure about the one in that video though. (and was an entire video of it really necessary? a picture would do.)

[hangthedj112]

There's some actual pictures of Busy P. sporting that shirt on his myspace

man i want that shirt

[rage patton]

That is a pretty rad shirt.

Who else thinks Kanye made this video with Daft Punk, because he is bitter abouty losing to Justice at some awards show last year?

[alfredomejia]

Yeah that's the shirt, sorry about the video but was the only thing I found to show it... so who's gonna be a good coachella msg board friend and help me get one?

About the video, I think Kanye still haven't heard justice's music hahaha, or haven't made the connection between daft and justice... who knows.

Has anybody yet raised the possibility of a surprise appearance by Mr. West at the LA show?
I just looked at his tour schedule and he's doing Street Scene,so maybe...

What??? are you sure that's not from last year?

[fober]

I will throw things at Kanye if he so much as shows his face at the arena.

[gazercmh]

kanye played last year's street scene and as of now isn't on the bill for this year. street scene and daft punk l.a. are two months apart anyway.

[anti-square]

alright fuckers, all this hype is making want to go to this really bad now! Is it worth it to buy $90 tickets to the shittiest seats possible at the sports arena? I have never been there, and I would not want to have to bring binoculars and an ear horn to enjoy the show...

[superfiction]

i heard theyre terrible live

[anti-square]

i heard theyre terrible live

alright groupie, some input if you have been to this venue would be nice. I know they are great live, I'm just debating whether it is worth buying $90 dollar tickets to be at the furthest possible location.

From who?

[theburiedlife]

OK, so why would DP work with Kanye after he's been such a C**t about losing a Grammy to Justice vs. Simian. Wouldn't that piss off Busy P, who's the manager for both Daft Punk and Justice?

[fober]

From who?

From myself.

[rage patton]

Thats what I find very funny about this who thing.
He probably figured if he wants to win best video, he has to work with one of these 'electronic' artists. So he "appologized" to Busy P, in order that he could sample "Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger" and work with Daft Punk in the video. This way he figures he will win best video.

From myself.

Ah... well that explains it! Kanye will come on stage and rap over Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger in LA!
(Thank god Im going to Seattle)

[RickeyinLA]

The stage fits exactly two robots and that's it. Nobody stands in front of the lights (like at a Girl Talk show).

But I hear they're really weak live.

[ficklecycle]

Haha, yeah and Prince is gay.

[fober]

Ah... well that explains it! Kanye will come on stage and rap over Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger in LA!

No, it is something tangible. Immediately when presented.

[shakermaker113]

I'd quite like that kanye song if the main line wasn't such a cliche. it's not even an interesting cliche. it's awful.

[instinct]

The only thing I'm basing my opinion on is the photos of Monster Massive.

I don't remember seeing a sound booth.

Of course I don't know which acts at Monster Massive would even need a sound engineer.

EDIT: Never mind, it looks like there is one at the tail end of this photo:

They have a sound/lighting booth.. They always have one at TAO and Monster.

lol.. isn't that Beach Blvd??? I live right by it.

[superfiction]

no kanye will not come out.
who cares that he pulled crap with justice, daft probably just respect him as a producer and were down to contribute to the creativity. P has no say in that in the end. and besides, it ended up being great promotion for justice anyway, and they thought it was pretty funny themselves i think

[higgybaby23]

I recently read an interview with Justice where they talk about Kanye trying to call and apologize after the MTV awards fiasco. Justice were actually glad that Kanye threw his hissy fit, it gave them more publicity than they had ever received up to that point.

San Francisco Giants. Yeah, see we have one of the all time great rivalries in sports history which is The Los Angeles Dodgers vs The San Francisco Giants. You being from San Diego wouldnt understand such a thing.

I understand and frankly I don't care seeing we are going to be 3peat as Western Division Champions, but i posted a Tony Gwynn Padres uniform.

[ficklecycle]

Who saw the Giants? JonnyM is messin up.

Dodger's are behind one game. That could easily change.

[suprefan]

I understand and frankly I don't care seeing we are going to be 3peat as Western Division Champions, but i posted a Tony Gwynn Padres uniform.

HAHAHAHAHHAHA!! You wish, you are going to be the wild card at best, the last series' that will be played will be the ones that determine who wins division. Oh and I mean you do remember how we hit 4 straigh home runs off your asses right? And even against one of the best closers in the game?

[fober]

So not only are you all disrespecting the awesomeness in this thread with filthy baseball talk, but you're doing it with NATIONAL LEAGUE baseball talk!?

COME ON!

[Mr. Dylanja]

D-Backs BIYATCH!! (wishful thinking I know)

Oh, cant wait for Daft Punk!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[JonnyM]

HAHA yes! i started a baseball thread!!! BTW, yes, I did fuck up! I totally thought it was a giants jersey! did he play for them?

But yes, the dodgers are going to win the west this year, i really think that once the dodger bats get hot (nomar and jeff kent are on huge slumps right now) were gonna jump atleast 4 games ahead like we did at the begining of the season. Plus, our team is just simply more well balanced! Our B squad is almost as good on offense as the padres A squad! (matt kemp, Either, liberthal)


So the point of this rant: DODGERS ARE THE SHIT, FUCK YO COUCH

[JonnyM]

btw, new dodgers JonnyM jersey everyday for the countdown...........go make your own in the dodgers.com shop!!!! or pick your favorite team, as long is its not the shitty Padres, Douche Bag Red Sox, or the flamingly homosexual Giants

[JonnyM]

OUCH, JUST LIKE THEY WON THE WORLD SERIES LAST YEAR AGAINST THE WORST TEAM TO MAKE THE PLAYOFFS LAST YEAR........THE ST LOUIS CARDNIALS!!!!


By the way...................how are cardnials doin this year? :)

I didn't know they lost to the "cardnials". What's that bird look like, may I ask? Does it look like a Cardinal?

In my mind it was a victory though. They've been through so much that it's going to be considered a victory. Just like the day the Lions stop sucking. Okay...that may be never. But I'll drive up with my walker to see them in Super Bowl CXCII a.k.a. Super Bowl 2067.

Oh, by the way. Remember 2004?
