Quote:

Daft Punk will play their only UK festival when they headline this year's Global Gathering, joining Fatboy Slim, Groove Armada, and a host of the world's finest DJing talent...

Global Gathering 2006 takes place at Long Marston Raceway, near Stratford-Upon-Avon, on 28-29 July, boasting three massive dance headliners.

Daft Punk will perform their first live UK show in over nine years as one of only eight worldwide shows in 2006.

Fatboy Slim is set to deliver one of his 3-D visual DJ sets, as seen at Glastonbury last year.
And Groove Armada will be bussing in their full band to perform on the beach stage. Main-man Andy Cato said: "New album, new band and the biggest dance crowd of the year. It's a good combination"
There will also be loads of top DJs playing throughout the weekend. Those so far confirmed are Tiesto, Sasha, Deep Dish, Erick Morillo, Paul Van Dyk, Paul Oakenfold, Carl Cox, Armin Van Buuren, Pete Tong, John Digweed, Steve Lawler, Jeff Mills, Kenny Dope Gonzalez, Lisa Lashes, Roni Size, Eric Prydz and Plump DJs.

Many more are expected to be confirmed in the coming weeks, all playing over the festival's six arenas. There will also be an urban village with hip-hop DJs, skate ramps, break dancers etc, an adrenlin village complete with bungee jumps, freefall simulators and other extreme rides, a fairground, and even a late night lap dancing club.

Weekend tickets are now on sale, priced £105 or £155 VIP and are available [COLOR=#0000ff]HERE[/COLOR].

shame there's no other acts yet that really whet my appetite and make me think about paying £105 for tickets...

Still, the preliminary list has some big names in there! Though i'm in the US and probably wouldn't pay that much for a concert anyway (;) ), seeng Daft Punk, Groove Armada, Plump DJs, and Fatboy at the same festival would entice me!

Re: daft punk live in uk!

Great lineup - in 2001.

Re: daft punk live in uk!

wait - they're only doing EIGHT F_CKING SHOWS?!?!

that's a JOKE of a world tour

ESPECIALLY when they even promote it, including stops in the US in their new greatest hits cd

pre-emptive grumble about how I'm not going to be seeing them... there's no way they're playing more than Coachella here

Re: daft punk live in uk!

Matt, seeing Daft Punk are playing global gathering i presume they'll do what Underworld did last year and headline the friday day which is usually better as theres not as much shit trance music around!

They usually post a day by day guide soon as well, so it could be worth popping down!
