Daft Punk live is a must see

[cured]

Great day and night out at Coachella this year. I'm very tired and have to make this brief but if you have the opportunity to catch Daft Punk anytime on their tour, you really should go. They amp up some of their classics and keep the energy going at a high and steady pace.

Plus the robot costumes just rule.

Their visuals, basically a pyramid stage that has its own powered lighting, is a very nifty piece of work.

The only disappointment I had is that they didn't respond to a good 5 minutes worth of clapping and cheering for an encore after they had left the stage, and they also didn't play Revolution 909. But that would be me reaching for perfection. These guys know how to put on one hell of a show.

well - I am really glad that the show was cool

too bad they only have one show in the US on their entire world tour... but there's still hope that they'll come back... right?

how long was their show? Honestly, they would've been the only reason why I would've gone to Coachella (heard that MA were playing more US shows later)

and did they perform in costume?

yeah they were in the robot outfits. They went on a little after 11pm and finished at around 12:15am. They had about 5 minutes worth of the crowd calling for an encore when it was all over.

someone took a little video of one of their songs...audio is terrible but I might give some perspective. I have a few of my own that I will try and post later if anyone is interested...

I think I was in the audience right next to the dude who posted that video.

Anyhow, one of the great live experiences of my life. I could cry.

Tangentally, My Morning Jacket was almost equally amazing.

My sentiments exactly.

I think the only other time I was that blown away was the first time I saw Underworld, and this took me even higher. I'm still getting chills thinking about this.

I was kind of disappointed by Massive Attack. The sound mixing was pretty bad, but maybe that was because I was about 20 feet from the stage (camped out for Tool who were AWESOME!!!!) Especially the songs Liz Frasier was doing. Her voice was sooooooo quiet over the too loud bass.

Also probably didn't help that I was surrounded by most of hte people screaming for Tool to come on. Honestly I thought it was poor choice to have Massive Attack on that stage before Tool while Coheed and Cambria were playing the other stage. Yeah Massive Attack were bigger, but I think there's much more overlap in the fanbase for those two than Massive Attack and Tool.

nah, Coheed would've stole the show......

Yes, hard to believe it's nearly been ten years since I saw them at Guvernment in Toronto, and hundresd of shows later it's still the best Dance act of my days.

Will they ever return!!?
