Daft Punk...Not at Coachella but Playing US

[ficklecycle]

Think about the fact that they have their own sites reporting shit so maybe that's the reason it didn't surface here too much.

[airguitarvet]

human after allllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll

[superfiction]

I wonder how 'confirmed' this is, since it wasn't mentioned in any of the other reports, while the japan dates that pitchfork mentioned are strangely missing from the daily swarm article.

hmmmm.

it is.

[shakermaker113]

it is.

oh. superfiction confirms it.

on another note, I wonder who will be opening on these new dates. (and I'm not talking about s&k). they've had an good set so far -- klaxons, ratatat, the rapture. if you count festivals you'd have to throw in lcd soundsystem and soulwax as well. who opened on the other european dates?

[gaypalmsprings]

more Daft dates confirmed

http://www.last.fm/music/Daft+Punk/+events

[ficklecycle]

I wish we coulda seen the Klaxons open for them too.

[Trick Loves The Kids]

would somebody be kind enough to burn the videos from berkeley to a DVD and mail it to me? my internet situation sucks and i'm afraid the shit will go down before i can download it. i'll paypal you for your trouble if you want.

[ficklecycle]

The ones that Chris took? I can do that.

PM me.

[Robototron]

I wish we coulda seen the Klaxons open for them.

They would've been better than Ratatat, but they're not nearly as fun live as The Rapture.

I think Digitalism opened for them in Berlin (or another German city).

[J~$$$]

The bald kid in the back always makes me laugh.

Isnt the bald kid in the video the other half?

[deftonepuma]

I have a strong feeling that the Close Encounters intro will not be on the Alive 2007 CD due to copyright issues/royalty fees. If anything it wouldn't be titled "Close Encounters intro"..that probably costs an extra few dollars. This is just me piecing together info all over the internet and likely speculation, call me Daft Radiohead Puma.

[shakermaker113]

I was quite happy with ratatat. didn't show up early enough to see the rapture. (curse you early shows). and actually, thinking back to the klaxons show I saw, I was quite disappointed. I loved their album, until that night. still, at the time I thought it was cool that daft had them as an opener.

[ficklecycle]

I loved Ratatat they were amazing as always. Perfect way to start it.

[superfiction]

oh. superfiction confirms it.


blow me.

[HunterGather]

I was thinking that too, but hopefully the HUMAN/ROBOT part is still there.
I'm sure it is, but I just figured since they are sepearating all the tracks, the intro should be it own...

[HunterGather]

Isnt the bald kid in the video the other half?

The other half of Daft? No.
Guy Man is mostly not seen in that clip, but he's there...

[ficklecycle]

Does anyone have any other old school vids?

[superfiction]

They would've been better than Ratatat, but they're not nearly as fun live as The Rapture.

I think Digitalism opened for them in Berlin (or another German city).

istanbul. i was at that show

[ficklecycle]

That must've been EPIC.

[superfiction]

i gotta say it was pretty sick. the venue was right on the water too, outdoor. i was bummed they didnt bring digitalism wiht them to the states, or justice. im jsut not a fan of dance bands like the rapture, ratatat or klaxons...or lcd....i could go on haha

[mistdevil]

haha naming all the dance-punk bands.

[HunterGather]

Rapture is a poor mans LCD.
However, I dig them live :D

[signmeup]

the Rapture sounded terrible in Seattle but were a little bit better in Denver, still not a fan though. I wouldve taken the Klaxons or Ratatat oveer the rapture any day.

Bulletin from The Presets: AUSTRALIAN TOUR



DAFT PUNK

Rejoice, Australian earthlings, because Modular Touring & Michael Coppel can confirm that, FINALLY, Daft Punk will bring their now legendary pyramid spectacular to Australia for four live shows of blind-siding robot rock at Never Ever Land, this December.

Never Ever Land is a utopian dreamland: a one day live show and party from tomorrow that features magical music from a seemingly faraway place, conveniently packaged and delivered to you at 4 open air locations around Australia to kick start the summer.

Never Ever Land will be expanding realities around the country on the following dates:

FRIDAY DECEMBER 14TH – SIDNEY MYER MUSIC BOWL – MELBOURNE
SUNDAY DECEMBER 16TH – THE ESPLANADE – PERTH* (Perth City)
THURSDAY DECEMBER 20TH – THE RIVERSTAGE – BRISBANE
SATURDAY DECEMBER 22ND – MAIN ARENA, SYDNEY SHOWGROUND – HOMEBUSH, SYDNEY
*Subject to City of Perth’s approval

Accompanying the seminal daft robots is a line up that has been hand picked from Around The World:

• The Presets have notched up enough frequent flyer miles in the last couple of years to go with Richard Branson to the moon and back, but have not played on Australian soil for some time. These will be amongst their last shows before they unleash album #2 on the world.
• SebastiAn and Kavinsky are from the Ed Banger stable of French producers currently tearing up dancefloors around the globe. SebastiAn has risen to notoriety through his ball-busting remixes of the likes of Cut Copy, Bloc Party, The Rapture and Kelis, while Kavinsky is the scene’s man of mystery, with nary a photo to be seen and the excellent Teddy Boy and 1986 EP’s to his name.
• Muscles has gone from a myspace phenomenon to a living breathing festival slaying one man band, with already-anthems Ice Cream and Sweaty in his canon converting fans all around the world. Fresh from supporting Soulwax in the UK and touring Europe, Muscles will hold it down solo at Never Ever Land.
• What more can be said about The Bang Gang Deejays that hasn’t been sung already, the premier party DJ’s, the hosts with the absolute most, the guys that put the why in party, Never Ever Land could simply not be imagined without The Bang Gang. Realise.
…MORE to be announced shortly.

Tickets will be available from Thursday September 13th from Ticketmaster, inthemix.com.au, and selected outlets.

Courtesy of EMI, the first release of tickets will include an Australian tour edition of Musique Vol. 1 1993-2005, the anthology of Daft Punk’s career and a great taster of what will be covered by their live shows at Never Ever Land.

From Friday August 31ST register at www.nevereverland.com.au for updates and news.

I forgot its summer there.

[shakermaker113]

awesome. I'm glad they're going to australia. australia often gets neglected.

they're even playing in brisbane. I'm going to tell my friends there right away...

[ficklecycle]

So The Presets are opening for Daft for the Aussies? Wow.

[dontfeedthebird]

Rapture is a poor mans LCD.
However, I dig them live :D

The Rapture totally OWN live. They win.

[superfiction]

the rapture totally suck all the time

[ficklecycle]

So I went to the Perspectives In The Crowd exhibit yesterday at Otis and loved it. Good place for some good shots ;)

And you gotta love the "ooooooh" on the TOGETHER sample haha

I like this picture a lot. who did it come from? it looks pro-shot, it's very good.

[4Ransom]

ok, so without looking through this whole thread, i just heard this mp3 labeled: daft punk - live mixes 2007 (B1 Mix). does anybody have this, and if so, what is it? it sounds like a crazy remix of prime time of you life?

[xleslie]

it's the music from the "prime time of your life" video. nothing special.

[suprefan]

I like this picture a lot. who did it come from? it looks pro-shot, it's very good.

Yeah thats an SLR, probably a canon. You could find out by checking the site its being hotlinked from. And its the promoter in Japan apparently, so who knows where the shot is from.




http://www.creativeman.co.jp/

[HunterGather]

Yeah, that's where it's from.

Anyhoo, anyone remember the DVD someone from here made comprising of multiple videos of Coachella set to the BC bootleg?

I wanna do the same thing for the 2007 shows and set it to the official CD that comes out in November. I got a Mac with Final Cut Express HD and all that good stuff.

It'd be awesome to get urry bodies input, especially those who posted those Berkley and Seattle videos pages back (sorry, forget who did those offhand)!
If possible at some free point, could I get a DV file of it, so I get the highest video quality?
And anyone else who even has the smallest video that could help. (except ones taken by cell phones...)
Doesn't matter what show you were at, it'll all work, if I got enough to make the whole show.
I'll even mix in the 02 Wireless broadcast of One More Time and Da Funk (and if there are good angles from other shooters, replace the damn audience shots!).
I could track down people who posted good videos on Youtube and such, but that is putting a little too much thought into it.

And if anyone cares, I don't know if this was posted here or not, but 2 long clips from the Dusseldorf and Bercy shows here in DIVX format, which I'd prolly use too:

http://stage6.divx.com/user/openDVB/video/1372797/Daft-Punk-Live-Duesseldorf-30-06-2007
http://stage6.divx.com/user/Unblogged/video/1321115/Daft-Punk---Live-at-Paris,-Bercy

I like this site. It's like a DIVX youtube, but it kinda suffers from not being big enough yet because there aren't millions of videos on it.

[rage patton]

So whats what electronic artists and leather jackets?

Both Daft Punk and Justice wear them.

[crazzz2007]

So whats what electronic artists and leather jackets?

Both Daft Punk and Justice wear them.

it's probly just a french thing

[ficklecycle]

Geez im coming up on a lot of Daft videos.

[HunterGather]

O rly, u must share. And YES, it was you with the Berkley videos, no? Or did you just make the MP3 files from it...

[ficklecycle]

I made the MP3 off of it but the videos came from suprefan.

I just have those, some promo video from the company that helps with the pyramid, the vids from Wireless & the Encore from the Sports Arena.

[HunterGather]

I have probly every video that was linked on this forum as well, but It'd be great if I could get the show videos directly as a DV file, as opposed to the AVI's they were converted to, if possible.

[HunterGather]

Hey, got this from another daft forum...
-------------------------
There will be an interview with Thomas & Guy-Manuel tonight on Annie Mac's BBC Radio 1's show. Her show starts at 22:00. Also on her webpage it says, "a big announcement about Daft Punk".

http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/mashup/

It's like 8.30pm UK time right now from where I am (Florida).
I wonder if it's news we know of already or not....

[ficklecycle]

So this show starts at 2 PM PDT. What can it be?

[ficklecycle]

"Got some big news for you".

[brando4n82]

So this show starts at 2 PM PDT. What can it be?

What do you mean? it's gotta be about the new material

[ficklecycle]

Live DVD announcement? It can't be the Aussie/Mexican/Japanese tour.

[brando4n82]

Live DVD announcement? It can't be the Aussie/Mexican/Japanese tour.

new material

[ficklecycle]

Let's hope so.

[HunterGather]

Well, I'm wondering if the interview was taped earlier like when they were in the UK and is just now airing or if they are over there physically now...
Hopefully it's not about the tour news or CD news thats already out now...

[ficklecycle]

Yeah hope it's actually something LIVE.

[brando4n82]

As far as I'm concerned, at this point, extending their tour Anywhere shouldnt be labeled as "big news," unless its Antarctica.

[HunterGather]

Or Iraq and Afghanistan.
That'd be awesome. They would bring peace over there!!

[ficklecycle]

True that.

So uh who's gonna record the MSTRKRFT mix?

[brando4n82]

True that.

So uh who's gonna record the MSTRKRFT mix?

serioussss, that shit looks BOMB,

Hey Now, Wait a minute Mr. Postman...

[ficklecycle]

So I'm confused apparently what I'm listening to is something that already happened last week so does that mean that the announcement was actually last week and not tonight?

[ficklecycle]

So apparently the announcement last week was that this week (tonight), they're going to broadcast the interview with Daft they did at Wireless this year...

Eh. But at least I get to hear the Prince remix.

[HunterGather]

That's it? Lame.

[HunterGather]

Oh yes, wait a minute mister postman!!

[ficklecycle]

No the poster was right. He said the interview would be tonight and it is. In about 10 minutes.

It's something.

[HunterGather]

So the interview is from the 02 Wireless festival?
Anyhoo, were you listening to that part just now? Oh yes! wait a minute mister post man! :D
Doep mix

[ficklecycle]

Yeah it's from Wireless festival.

Yeah I was now I'm listening to 1Xtra Take Over. BALLIN.

[ficklecycle]

I'm recording the interview.

She said they played Coachella in 05...

[shakermaker113]

lol yeah it's prerecorded. he talked about ratatat "who will be opening for them in LA".

although he's also saying they are excited to make new music.

[ficklecycle]

Yeah i'm listening to it. They were at Coachella this year tight!

From the sound of it, they're going to take time with the new album.

[shakermaker113]

yeah. it sounds like they want to do it, but who knows how long it'll take.

all the more reason to absorb as much daft punk as possible now. mexico, anyone?

[ficklecycle]

I would if it wasn't for Vegoose and my trip to NYC in November. DAMN.

[HunterGather]

I really want to go to Vegoose or Mexico. But damn, it costs alot just getting there!!

[HunterGather]

That Kiss/Da Funk mix was baller

[omg wtf bbq]

anyone got more info on the mexico city gig?

[ficklecycle]

Here's the TM page for it. Don't see Daft though.

http://www.ticketmaster.com.mx/venue/163842

[shakermaker113]

yeah. and neither the MX nor the Japan dates are on their myspace yet... but the australia dates are up.

it's just time I guess. and yeah, unfortunately it costs a little, but luckily I got a free flight voucher last time I flew on alaska, which will take me to mexico city and back. otherwise I don't think I'd consider it.

I wonder who will be opening in Mexico.

[ficklecycle]

The Presets opening for them is the greatest thing ever. I would've loved to have seen that. Don't get me wrong, I love Ratatat, Klaxons, & The Rapture. But The Presets are sure gonna bring the whole house down.

[brando4n82]

so does anyone know where i can get that MSTRKRFT mix or what? sounds like i missed out

[ficklecycle]

Well, here's the interview considering this is a Daft thread...

http://www.zshare.net/audio/34130679b0ef2b/

[brando4n82]

Well, here's the interview considering this is a Daft thread...

http://www.zshare.net/audio/34130679b0ef2b/

CONSIDER NOTHING! I know at least one of you are resourceful and nice enough to upload that ish. pleeeeeeeeeeeeeease?

[Robototron]

The Presets opening for them is the greatest thing ever. I would've loved to have seen that. Don't get me wrong, I love Ratatat, Klaxons, & The Rapture. But The Presets are sure gonna bring the whole house down.

I'd say The Presets are on par with those openers. When I saw them open for Hot Chip last year (or it might've been The Rapture, actually) they weren't that amazing. The only part of their set I was really feeling was actually a Daft Punk cover.

[ficklecycle]

They opened for the Rapture. I had known about the Presets for a while already but had never really seen them. I went to the show being a Rapture fan. The Presets definetly stole the show.

[Trick Loves The Kids]

the presets are better than the rapture

[suprefan]

Here's the TM page for it. Don't see Daft though.

http://www.ticketmaster.com.mx/venue/163842

They wont announce the onsale for a couple more weeks I imagine.




I would go that would be so much fun hearing everyone screaming in spanish.

[ficklecycle]

the presets are better than the rapture

Agreed to the fullest.

[superfiction]

They wont announce the onsale for a couple more weeks I imagine.




I would go that would be so much fun hearing everyone screaming in spanish.

i saw them in spain. it wasnt as cool as you think. people were kind of annoying to be honest

[orbit]

There were a group of mexicans around us in the show at Red Rocks, cool people.

I saw The Chemical Brothers in Argentina on 2004, and people were great too. Don't know about spanish people tho, but for the youtube videos look like a nice crowd. But yeah, the vibe is kinda different, I like it.

[HunterGather]

I think these 2 videos sum up the crowd in South America:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uJffaSgJi0o

Flippin' Awesome!

[fober]

Argentina knows how to fucking get down.

[ficklecycle]

Wow. That must've been epic.

[HunterGather]

I love how they are ALL singing the MUSIC parts in perfect unison and jumping up and down at the same time.

[ficklecycle]

I remember my friends and I practicing our singing/dancing/jumping on beat before the show.

Good times...

[HunterGather]

Random thought:
Wouldn't it be awesome if Daft Punk did Ultra Music Festival (not to be confused with Bang) in Miami in feb/march and then finish the tour at Coachella 2008 in April...
...
Rainy days suck...

[ficklecycle]

Chris and I were talking about how they should end the tour with Coachella. Like their "farewell" show.

[HunterGather]

It just seems right. And that could even be the one they film for DVD! Assuming they really did scrap the L.A. shoot.
Oh, and do you know what venue the Mexico show is going to be at? Don't feel like going through hundreds of pages...
Wanna see what it's all about.

[ficklecycle]

http://www.ticketmaster.com.mx/venue/163842

That's the TM page for the venue.

As for the DVD, who knows whats going on. All the NYC footy is just for the Harder Better Faster Stronger single. So who knows. I wish they'd do it off the L.A. one though...

[signmeup]

They wont announce the onsale for a couple more weeks I imagine.




I would go that would be so much fun hearing everyone screaming in spanish.

Its more fun to hear japanese people screaming in bad english!

"UNA VEZ MAS!"

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha...

Yeah, and you need to be in a Boca Juniors-River Plate soccer game..

THAT is fuckin awesome. Oh man, I miss Buenos Aires..

"YOU WANTED THE BEST? YOU GOT THE BEST! THE HOTTEST BAND IN THE WORLD! KISS!!!!!!!!!!!"

[HunterGather]

Hahah.
Assuming I can get funds to go to Vegas or Mexico, I'm not sure what to do!
The venue in Mexico is big and I'm afraid I wont be as close as I want, and of course a small festival is always a gamble too...

[ficklecycle]

How close do you want to be? Considering Vegoose is not just Daft, I'm sure you wont have a hard time with positioning.

You need to get yourself to one of these though.

& if anything you could win all the money for the trip on the slots if you get lucky.

[HunterGather]

Im not talking front-row ish. Towards back ish. Not too far back. Maybe 40-60 people behind.
And I don't know what it is about me, but I always have to pee alot when I go to shows, so I usally have to do 1 of 2 things:
1-Hold it and think for the entire show "I GOTAA PEEE"
2-Go pee, and have the worst fucking time getting back to where I was-ish.

Red Rocks was no problem. Matter of fact, I left my spot several times to pee, walk around, smoke, and had no problem.

Seattle was a little different. I had to pee again when the Rapture was playing, and my friend asked everyone around us to let us back in the circle when we get back hahaha.
It was a tight squeeze. We got ugly looks by damn hipsters, but eventually got back to our spot. :D

I can go a whole 10 hour shift at work without peeing, but I gotta go 20 times at a show!

[ficklecycle]

I know how you feel. I never pee at shows. It feels like I don't even pee the day of a show at all. I have the same problems at movies. I think you'd have an easier time getting back in at Vegoose.

[kingsblend420]

I think they will have bathrooms in the back of the field opposite the stage so you wont have to go too far.

I hardly ever pee at shows. I never pee at coachella even though I am drinking like an irishman all day long. Its probably because of all the sweating.

[ficklecycle]

I only pee at the beginning of the day at Coachella.

[RotationSlimWang]

Do you and your friends all practice peeing in unison?

[ficklecycle]

We would if they let us all go in the same restroom.

[crazzz2007]

I think these 2 videos sum up the crowd in South America:

I dont want to see Daft Punk at Coachella again unless it's completely different aka no pyramid. I guess if they do come back they will have to play main stage, which is stupid. If they played in the tent, at least 10,000 would be bummed they couldnt fit. I would be way down for them to play a straight up dj set with some turntables, no extravagant theatrics.

I sort of agree with you. Something different. Its still Daft Punk, they're still amazing.

[shakermaker113]

at both LA and berkeley a friend had to leave to go to the bathroom. I honestly didn't think they would find me again, but I had bright bleach-blonde hair at the time, and in both cases it stood out enough that they were able to find me again in those huge crows.

I rarely leave to go pee if I'm in the middle of a crowd though. I did that for the yeah yeah yeahs the other week and I never got back to as good of a spot. blah.

[ficklecycle]

I'd stay in the bathroom at a YYY's show.

[HunterGather]

It's not really a problem if getting back to your spot, it's that there are so many people hugged up against eachother and they look at you like you just killed their dog or something.
I encourage everyone to not be like those people! Unless the person(s) are getting right in front of you blocking your view and they werent there before, let 'em through God damnit!!! hahaha

No way. If I let everyone through who wanted to get in front of me I would be at the back of the crowd. And I fucking hate it when one person pushes infront of me and there are like 8 people in tow. Fuck you. Its every person for themselves.

[HunterGather]

Hahah...well, if you like remember the person moving their way out, then by all means let them back in. But I understand what you mean.
I'm just so concerned that I'm going to have to pee...

Speaking of, when I saw Daft at Bang, during the middle of the show these 3 guys busted their way through everyone with a huge keg of booze...that was weird....

I think I may do Mexico because it may be cheaper...but I'm not sure....
I'm still waiting on the lineup for Bang this year....
Fack...I gotta see them again!!!!!

[kingsblend420]

Thats why you just bring an empty bottle and piss in that.

[HunterGather]

I actually considered doing that at Red Rocks. I kinda had to pee during Sebastion and Kavinskys second set, but by that point I knew it would be hell getting back, so I held it.
Too many people around to pee.

[HunterGather]

these foreigners keep fuckin it up

[shakermaker113]

Hahah...well, if you like remember the person moving their way out, then by all means let them back in.

eh... I don't think anyone can leave their spot and reasonably expect to get back. if you leave, you give it up. it's a free for all. you don't have any more right to that spot just because you stood there once.

having said that, at the very large concerts in europe, they sometimes have a separate section at the front. they only let so many people in there, and they give them wristbands so that they can leave and come back again easily. bathroom problem solved.

Either way, just force it out before the show.

Just like in 2006 right?

[suprefan]

Hahah...well, if you like remember the person moving their way out, then by all means let them back in. But I understand what you mean.
I'm just so concerned that I'm going to have to pee...

Speaking of, when I saw Daft at Bang, during the middle of the show these 3 guys busted their way through everyone with a huge keg of booze...that was weird....

I think I may do Mexico because it may be cheaper...but I'm not sure....
I'm still waiting on the lineup for Bang this year....
Fack...I gotta see them again!!!!!



Yes and no, just because the exchange rate is high doesnt mean it will translate over here as a break on money. Morrissey in playing in Tijuana in a few weeks. Tickets are $40 - $75 usd, some break huh?

[shakermaker113]

Just like in 2006 right?

I remember them having a separate section at the front of the sahara -- I was in there for the first 1/2 of daft, until I wanted room to move. that was a little different though. they let a limited number of people in, but no wristbands to get back in. so if you leave, you've left for good.

I just used "copy link location" then past image and insert link.

[Robototron]

At the LA Arena show I left the second or third row of people towards the center just after Ratatat ended, and started off at the side of the front (I was barely even in the crowd) when Daft Punk went on. Within fifteen or twenty minutes I'd danced my way back to pretty much where I was before, so getting my spot back wasn't really an issue.

[daftmonkey64]

when i do that all i get is this

http://i19.tinypic.com/52crwok.gif

[kingsblend420]

just put around it

[HunterGather]

In Seattle, if me and my friend werent holding onto our shirts for dear life, we'd surely have been seperated. Not that it would have been a bad thing, I mean it's Daft Punk, who cares who's around you. But I surely would have been sent waay back. Anyone who was in the front-ish knows that from Robot Rock to the end of Television that it was nothing but a massive wave/push and jumping non stop :D:D
Good times, good times

[ficklecycle]

My group and I were at the very front and we didn't even move back one foot.

Well maybe because my GF was hanging onto to railing at the front and I was holding on to my fairly fat friend whenever a wave of pulling would commence. The pushing during Arctic Monkeys at Coachella this year was worst.

I think the best way to find out if it is indeed MELT is to see a video of their live show during Technologic or the video for Technologic...

But yeah..melt?

[shakermaker113]

real news!

mexico, japan, and australia dates all up on their myspace (http://www.myspace.com/daftpunk).

mexico city presale on now at ticketmaster mexico (http://www.ticketmaster.com.mx/event/14003F22EB30CFF1?artistid=807213&majorcatid=10001&minorcatid=201) -- password is DAFUNK.

hmm what do you guys make of the seating chart? the on sale page gives me a choice of NIVEL B, NIVEL A, NIVEL C, NIVEL D, and NIVEL E, from most expensive to least expensive. the seating chart doesn't indicate where NIVEL A is though -- is that the floor? yet it's not the most expensive ticket? hmm...

http://media.ticketmaster.com/es-mx/tmimages/venue/maps/mxc/20269s.gif

I only go on about the seating because I'm seriously considering this. I'm going to talk to my boss tommorow about some time off.

[shakermaker113]

ah crap... they only seem to ship within mexico, and will call is apparently not an option. do I really have to ticketfast this? I've never ticketfasted before. I like real tickets.

alright enough whining from me.

also, cost of a section A ticket after fees & ticketfast is 672 pesos, which is about $60 USD according to xe.com.

[omg wtf bbq]

thats not bad at all.

[anti-square]

I live a couple of blocks from the border and I have a house in Mexico. I can mail them to you if you send them to my house...

hahahah

[betao]

if they can tour mexico and charge that much... then seriously, the could have added more US dates to that tour.

your talking about the highest populated city in the world(insert mexican procreation habits joke here). They can charge whatever the fuck they want and enough people will show up regardless.

Just something to think about.

[Mr. Dylanja]

I'm f'in pumped for Vegoose!!! I've shown remarkable discipline in my spending habits to make sure Oct. 26-29 will be (for lack of a better synonym) EPIC! Sure Tool would be unbelievable, but I'll be able to catch them one way or another. Soon as I hear whatever sounds come out of that pyramid, look up and realize the bright lights aren't the strip it will be bliss!

DP wouldnt do it. The only way to know thats going down is if the artist posts something regarding it. So if DP did a ''hey we are on myspace secret shows top friends list'' bulletin, expect an announcement within 48 hours. I get those secret show things every week and thats how it seems to hppen. DP wont do L.A. all secret though. It will be some random city.

Yes, please do! 3 Daft Punk shows in one year... would almost be too much!

And if not, I would gladly take MSTRKRFT.

[ficklecycle]

I don't get why you're all making such a big deal of the Myspace Secret Shows thing. U2 was on there once...

Random thought.
I really like the Rapture.
I regret not actually listining to their albums before seeing them on Dafts tour.
They were great live, but it's a little hard to enjoy new music live, at least for me.
After getting a few songs stuck in my head at the shows I went to, I can't stop listening to their stuff!

Yes it is, this person had to have had access to it, they were never sold to the public unless you knew who the artist was and went to their site to buy it.(if that was even the case) Thats the only way they couldve gotten it. I wonder how much they paid for it if they indeed bought it. And I would never sell that poster if I got it.




Edit: his site has one selling on e bay, guess that mightve been the only way. And its only been up since yesterday. The photo of it on there seems to be higher res, I would take that image and print my own on nice paper. Kinkos here I come, or some cool print shop that will do it.
