Daft Punk Tour in the Works



Holy scintillating space pyramids, Batman! A pair of costumed crime-fighters may soon be headed to a city near you, and, well, no dig on the dark knight, but these dudes will get the job done in well under two and a half hours. The crime they fight? That of immobile feet and crossed arms. Their weapons? Irresistible house grooves, lights galore, and a freaking pyramid. The name they go by? Daft Punk.

As noted in a recent Billboard.com report, France's favorite android sons are gearing up for a tour "in the near future," according to a Creative Artists Agency representative. We don't know quite when or where these visitations will occur, so keep your eyes peeled for the Daft signal. Or, better yet, just check the next news story on the subject.

While you wait, bide the time with repeat viewings of Daft Punk's Electroma, available now on DVD via Vice.

Finally, according to the aforementioned Billboard.com report, the horizon also holds tours from the likes of Depeche Mode, Green Day, Usher, Weezer, AC/DC, the Killers, and, shit yes, Journey.

Coachella 09 will go like this

Friday

Outkast 8:30p to 10p ---> Daft Punk 10:30p to END and then Outkast comes back at the end for a Daft/Outkast B.O.B. to end all....

[marooko]

[TeamCoachellaHellYeah]

[summerkid]

unnecessary and not going to happen since they got all pissed off at Coachella last time they tried to play.

[TeamCoachellaHellYeah]

Really? What was the story behind them not playing the last time?

[suprefan]

Dm baby. And kill me on the DP thing. They play staples this time, 2 nights. Floating Tetrahedrons ftw

[marooko]

i read GV announced prior to confirmation. they wanted to finish their album.

[summerkid]

they were on the poster and they claimed they never agreed to play and blamed Coachella for the confusion and I remember seeing something on their site and they seemed really angry.

[TeamCoachellaHellYeah]

Bah! They are probably over it now.

Couldn't have been worse than what happened to Evil Nine in 2005. Goldenvoice screwed up telling them their proper set time, so they never made it in time to play their alloted set (opening Sunday I think), but they still came back and closed it in 2007. So wounds heel.

[menikmati]

And are people really that excited about a new Daft Punk tour? Whatever happened to making a new album? Do you really want the same pyramid and same set again?

[aeroplanee]

No pyramid this time, i think

[apostle2]

no pyramid, new set is my guess...

but shit, I never saw the pyramid

[Derekx]

WTF! DEPECHE MODE! I finally get to see them, hopefully.

they are working on their album too, this article says nothing to the contrary.

Floating Tetrahedrons ftw
