Who doesn't love Daft Punk? You should know they rarely EVER do concerts, and the Coachella 2006 concert was AMAZING, so I could not be more happy this is happening

I'll be going to the Berkeley one, best news ever

[FallingEdge]

Dope. They are coming to Denver. I think I'll hit that up.

[mr. newbie]

i heard the last alive tour. sucked. their last cd sucked to. but i'm excitied anyway!

[shadowcharlie]

hate for the south from yet ANOTHER groups tour spots -_-

[YellowS4]

Oh fuck, Daft live is fucken monster.

[¤Scrimples¤]

No Midwest love? wtf :-(

[Chaos]

Fuck me. I am the biggest fan I know and they aren't coming within 1000 miles of Atlanta.

[Etcetera]

I am not a fan of this type of music, but just want to know what a live show for this genre is like. For a type of music that isn't instrumental or vocal focused, I can't imagine what is like to "perform" live.
Feel me in on this, youtube stuff I just checked look like just some random club and not a live performance of a touring band.

[Chaos]

Isn't instrumental focused? .................................................. ...................

[Chi-Rithy]

Holy shit!

This is great news,can't wait for this summer:cool:

[Etcetera]

Isn't instrumental focused? .................................................. ...................
When I think of a live performance, I think of people playing instruments in order to create music and not just purely synths or whatever they use.

[¤Scrimples¤]

You should broaden your thinking then.

It's 2007.

Get with it.

[FallingEdge]

No Midwest love? wtf :-(

They got love for the midwest. Denver baby!!

:wgrin:

[Chaos]

NEWSFLASH-----synths are instruments.

[1]

When I think of a live performance, I think of people playing instruments in order to create music and not just purely synths or whatever they use.

Synthesizers, Keyboards, Mixers, computers, and turntables are all instruments used to create and alter music. Sure, It's not your traditional drummer-guitar and bass player setup but it still sounds good.

[ILLiterate]

Feel me in on this, youtube stuff I just checked look like just some random club and not a live performance of a touring band.
They do the DJing, have lots of effects, every one is dancing, glow sticks and such are fun to watch, they do some things live (such as guitar) and the main attraction for Daft Punk is that they HEAVILY mix their songs together. They get like 5 songs going at once and even if it's one of the songs that you HATE on the album, once you hear it you're amazed

It's a club feel for sure, but they pretty much NEVER tour/play live (they wear the robot suits so people don't know who they are), making it that much better

[YellowS4]

^Seriously haha.

Live in Belfort was beast live set.

[*InVeRs3*]

Is this a live performance or DJ performance?

I'm not a fan of live performances, but I'll definately go to the berkeley one 100% sure if it's a DJ set.

[zakky]

Might try to hit them up in Montreal. I heard the Coachella show was unbelievable. After hearing that I wanted to see how they matched up to the greatest live act of all time: The Flaming Lips. If Daft Punk even comes close to matching the sheer power of the Lips live I will be thoroughly impressed. If you EVER have a chance to see The Flaming Lips live, do not pass it up, you'll regret it the rest of your life.

The full mix on mp3 is floating around the internet somewhere.

[ILLiterate]

Is this a live performance or DJ performance?

I'm not a fan of live performances, but I'll definately go to the berkeley one 100% sure if it's a DJ set.Not sure, but most likely a DJ set with a few things thrown in to keep it fresh, but yeah mostly DJ performance such as seen in Coachella 2006 ( or the video above )

[Preppy]

I was going to get tickets and then realized they're playing Seattle the same weekend as Evo. Dammit.

Thanks very much for pointing this out though. I would definitely have gone if I could.

[PLD]

Fuck yeah!! I just started to listen to them recently. I liked them for a good while, but just recently I got to get more into it. Interstella 5555 is also great! I'm at the L.A one.

When do tickets go on sale?

[OMG AntiAir Dust]

Mp3 of coachella performance. --> http://milkandmonsters.wordpress.com/2006/07/19/59/

They are just killing it, thanks to no1976 for pointing me to this badass live set. They are one of my favorite electronic acts of all time. So much funk. Sad they wont be hitting up chicago as i would love to go see the robots in person.

[Chaos]

I hope they don't use any of the garbage from the Human After All album. One of the great dissappointments in recent memory for me.

[Preppy]

Song recommendations:

Aerodynamic [Daft Punk Extended Mix] off of the Remixes vinyl
Aerodynamic off of Digital Love or Discovery (but Digital Love is +20sec which is nice)
Digital Love
Face to Face off of the Face to Face vinyl or Discovery
Haster, Better
Music Sounds Better With You off of that EP by Daft Punk/Stardust
One More Time
Something About Us either off of Daft Club or the EPs
Too Long [Gonzales Version] off of Daft Club

Skip Human After All and every EP, and if you "accidentally" buy "Human After All Remixes", you can join me in the That Was Stupid club. But the little Daft Punk Kubricks are cool. If people want I'll put up pics of them.

[YellowS4]

1. Robot Rock
2. Technologic vs Oh yeah
3. Television Rules The Nation vs Crescendolls
4. Too Long
5. Steam Machine vs Around The World
6. Too Long pt. 2
7. Face to face vs Harder Better Faster Stronger vs Short Circuit
8. One More Time vs Aerodynamic
9. The Prime Time of Your Life vs Rollin' and Scratchin'
10. Da Funk
11. Superheroes vs Human After All vs Rock'n'roll

The Belfort set.

The Coachella one was too good

[Logos]

That Coachella set was fucking amazing. I am definitely going to see them when they roll out to Denver.

[FallingEdge]

Word :rock: :rock: :rock:

[Chaos]

There is a good chance I'm going to try and catch them in either Denver or NY if these are the only dates. It will cost out the ass but its gonna be my only chance to see them possibly ever.

Holy mother of Peter I just looked at the lineup for coachella 2006. In retrospect I would have easily paid 1000 bucks to attend that festival as a once in lifetime chance. Kanye West, Common, Franz Ferdinand, DEPECHE MODE, DAFT PUNK just on friday. Unreal. AND TOOL.

[Dummy Account]

Unfortunately:
Evo West> Daft Punk.

[mr. newbie]

maybe it'll be my first live show.

[Preppy]

Probably should check but:
* buy the kubes (http://www.cduniverse.com/productinfo.asp?PID=7041697&style=music&frm=frooglemusic) (probably, should check each listing)
* buy the Babekubs/Kubricks (http://froogle.google.com/froogle?q=daft+punk+kubrick&btnG=Search)

There was also the RAH versions.... this (http://images.google.com/images?q=daft+punk+figure&btnG=Search&sa=N&tab=fi) shows every version of the RAH toys that I know of + the bendies. This (http://zachd.com/kubricks/daft%20punk.jpg) is a pic of the Daft Punk Kubs (what I have). Not reallllly exciting, but still kinda cool hanging out on my CD rack.

I hope you guys have a blast at the concert. :tup:

[mr. newbie]

^ya the kubes weren't that expensive originally iirc.at least, the ones you have. the bapes are for club members only. no way of gettin those.

do they have any more merchandise? i've never seen a shirt or a poster or anything.

[ILLiterate]

I hope they have a shirt or something to buy at the concert, I'm ready to throw money at them

[DrumlinerJoe]

Damn it, nowhere near Texas.

[Shin-Mech-Brian]

HOLY SMOKING ASS-CRACKERS!

I will so be at the Los Angeles show!

[Ne0phyte]

No Midwest love? wtf :-(
Better head over to Toronto like I'm planning.

[FurryCurry]

When do tickets go on sale?

AND

How much do you guys think they will cost?

[Hyperhal]

Does anyone know what the people of Daft Punk actually look like? I've NEVER seen pictures.

.

wow. you're so uncultured. i died a little inside reading this. unless you live out somewhere in the boonies, the countryside, or some other place no where near modern civilazation... then i would understand.

[Mixah]

I think it's funny that this thread received more attention than the "free ozzfest" thread. I would have thought there would be more Ozzy fans than Daft Punk fans on this site. Personally, I prefer Daft. w0rd up.

Well, have you ever been to a club? Wasn't there an MTV show at one point that had some dude named DJ Skribble and they would "perform" as DJ's? You do realize that a performance without instruments and voice could actually be more unique and creative than those with, right? Or would you rather just completely deny the existence of such an even occurring?

for the person that requested pictures...

SEBASTIAN

It's going to be a crazy show and pretty much sell out cause of The Rapture as well so pay attention to when tickets are getting sold. These bands are mad hype, bring your dancing shoes kids cause it's gonna be a helluva night.

[FallingEdge]

Tickets for Seattle and Denver go on sale this Saturday.

Also, many people know The Rapture and Daft Punk, but not many people know about SebastiAn and KavinZky.

KavinZky died in 1986 in a automobile accident and is now back as a zombie for revenge.

SebastiAn rockin the SHIT in melbourne.

Checking for ticket sale dates are killing me! I check everyday to get my tickets and nothing. Not even mentioned on the LASA site.

...Goddammit, why do summer event dates always fucking coincide? :sad:

[ThyAllMighty]

got 2 ticks to LA mofugga

[FallingEdge]

Just got my tickets to the Denver show.

WOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!

[Silentness!]

why is my location so shitty. Nothing exciting happens...

It's so crappy that I instead list a WoW city as my location.

[Logos]

Just got my tickets to the Denver show.

WOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!

Same, shit's gonna be awesome!

[misterbean97]

also got my ticket for LA yesterday morning

[PLD]

Got my tickets on Sat. also.

Anyone have extra floor tickets for the LASA?

[Shin-Mech-Brian]

also got my ticket for LA yesterday morning

Same here. It took our friend almost 30 minutes to get ttickets online so we got first level above the floor - 1st come 1st serve fuckers! We may not have floor tickets but at least we have somewhere to sit when the other two bands play.

I can't wait for this concert. :annoy: :annoy: :annoy:

[1]

My friend and I are looking to get tickets for the Colorado date. It's the closest to where I live. Just gotta make arrangements and make sure I'll be able to go.

[ThyAllMighty]

tickets on sale this sunday at 10 for greek theatre in berk

[YellowS4]

Anyone get a chance to see Electroma? Mad funky and interesting.

Got my TO tickets, hopefully I'll make it still.

[Buddha's Weapon]

Coachella was such a bombass mix, i wanna see daft punk live now!

[ytwojay]

The link to the Coachella set is down, here's a new one:

http://www.abrooklynlife.com/2006/06/rock_robot_rock.html

Daft Punk ftw

[FallingEdge]

Denver concert is just over a month away.

WOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

[debs]

damn i wanna go to the NY one. how much are the tickets?

[Pablo_the_Mex]

I think I will go to the seattle show. I don't really follow their albums but from the little I have heard, I dig their stilo.

[FallingEdge]

If ya haven't seen it yet...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N81-W7OmIGw

Dope ass vid. Daft Punk + Akira influence = win

I hope they play this at the concert too >_<

[debs]

hell yeah. i think thats why i like timbaland and old neptunes so much...they're beats sound so different...something like stronger (produced by kanye, sampled from daft punk) is what hip hop needs IMO.

i think it works for both audiences. now more ppl will be exposed to daft punk.

[Buddha's Weapon]

That song is tyte, seems like people are starting to sample alot of daft punk's songs nowadays... which is a good thing.

[randomplayerx]

It pisses me off to hear people who "don't really follow their albums" have shows in their city and can just up and go. Burn in hell. God forbid they do a show within 1000 miles of the southeast.

[maxx]

anyone know who directed the video?

[FallingEdge]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K2cYWfq--Nw

[FallingEdge]

Denver concert IS NEXT WEEK!!!

Can't wait!!

[Pablo_the_Mex]

I missed my chance to get tickets. I may not be their biggest fan, but it would have been nice to catch their show.

[ha-dou-ken]

sweeeeeet.

Oh and that Daft / Kanye mashup is kinda weak.

[Buddha's Weapon]

nice find!

[Bounce]

missed them in miami, loved all thier albums.....laughing at the amount of disrespect they get in the mainstream only to have their beats used as bases and background music. anyone who has a chance to see them have fun.

[FallingEdge]

Concert is tomorrow. YEAAAAAAAAAAAH! [/Jacky]

[KrsJin]

Concert is tomorrow. YEAAAAAAAAAAAH! [/Jacky]

Amen, I have a final the day after, but I'm still going lol.

[Shag]

Got tickets for the NY show. I can't wait!

I still remember the two times I caught them back in '96. Pure Bliss. :lovin:

... the main attraction for Daft Punk is that they HEAVILY mix their songs together. They get like 5 songs going at once and even if it's one of the songs that you HATE on the album, once you hear it you're amazed..

Motherfucking truth.

My friend hated Fresh (song with the ocean surf in bg) until he heard their remix of the song performed live. You can hear some of it on their live album.


Do you guys know about Vegoose (http://www.vegoose.com) music festival? Daft Punk is headlining under Rage Against the Machine. Its located at Vegas at the end of October.

[FighterX]

Fuck me. I am the biggest fan I know and they aren't coming within 1000 miles of Atlanta.

I know...that sucks. :wasted:

[Logos]

Concert is tomorrow. YEAAAAAAAAAAAH! [/Jacky]

Holy.. . I do not really listen to DP, but that set is pretty dope. (More into the Trance vibe.. .) But yeah good stuff.

[Logos]

Just got back from the concert an hour ago, and it was fucking amazing. Seriously, by far the best live performance I have ever seen. The encore was almost better than the entire rest of their set.

[misterbean97]

LA show was insanely sick. like logos i thought it was the best live performance i have ever seen. very similar to their coachella set except some tracks were tweaked.

encore performance >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>*

Correct. I wrote a small entry at my LJ if interested: http://krsjin.livejournal.com/91280.html

Like you two, was the best live performance I've ever seen.

[Pablo_the_Mex]

Now I am pissed that I missed their show.

[Dragon Punch]

Well it looks like my buddy found some girl with 5 tickets to sell, so i'll post up a review of the show after sunday.

[misterbean97]

Correct. I wrote a small entry at my LJ if interested: http://krsjin.livejournal.com/91280.html

that venue looks really sick

[Buddha's Weapon]

I wanna see some footage of this show :(
Hopefully someone will put it up on youtube or something.

[Logos]

that venue looks really sick

Yeah, Red Rocks is just a straight up amazing venue. I feel lucky to live a half hour away from it.

[FallingEdge]

The concert was fucking amazing. Everything about it was perfect. Weather, atmosphere, peeps, everything. So much fun.

[KrsJin]

I wanna see some footage of this show :(
Hopefully someone will put it up on youtube or something.

YellowS4 posted this above earlier on http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...arch&plindex= It's their entire set from one showing. It's pretty much identical to the set FallingEdge, Logos and myself saw, with subtle differences and different location.

[Logos]

I think our encore was completely different, along with a couple other parts. But yeah, that gives you a general idea of the awesomeness of the show (minus the awesomeness of Red Rocks).

[War_Destroyer]

Saw it in L.A. Was the most awesome concert experience of my life. Great music, great vibe on the floor, unmatched visuals, over the top encore. More of a let loose and dance club feel than a concert, which I would prefer any day than just standing and watching a 'band' play.

Been a fan since Homework and feel a goal in my life was fulfilled in seeing them.

[War_Destroyer]

Could someone link the mp3 again? Was a dope ass mix.

[¤Scrimples¤]

I think I'm going to have to choke someone to see them tomorrow night...

[Shag]

Just got home from their live set in NYC. :cybot::cybot:


Phenomenal


:pray::cool: :party::rock::tup::woot::clap::lovin:

[Asura]

God damn, I was only slightly interested in Daft Punk but after hitting this thread holy shit they're awesome. To bad the only thing I can find are their actual CDs and not any mixes on torrent sites.

What exactly is the kind of music that Daft Punk is classified as? I'm hella interested in this genre whatever it is, the vocals albeit simple and distorted strike a huge cord with me.
