Daft Punk...Not at Coachella but Playing US

[malcolmjamalawesome]

By the way, Pukkelpop is like Coachella times about 1,000,000,000. Pretty much it's the same thing except beers cost $1, you can walk around smoking dope, there are 2 enormous rave tents and in between the rave tents there is a huge outdoor rave zone with it's own music so that way when you walk from one rave tent to the next you never have to stop raving. Oh, and there are a ton of 15 year old just partying their asses off. And they all sing along to "We Are Your Friends" when Justice plays. So yeah, I'd say it's Dave Wang approved.

Wow we get the Sports Arena. KInda a weird place but it is huge and they hold alot electronic music fests(Monster Massive etc). I'd love to see them at the Greek. Maybe I'll go to both shows.

Keyspan Park? A baseball stadium? Weird.

Has anyone actually been to the LA Sports Arena? How is it?

I've only seen the Clippers there, never an actual music venue...I'm kind of saddened by the fact that it isnt the Hollywood Bowl, oh well.

I don't think concerts are still held at the old Sports Arena. I saw several shows back in the 80's there, but I can't remember the last time I've seen a show advertised there. I would guess it's meant to be the Forum or Staples.

[malcolmjamalawesome]

Everybody's getting a little fired up based off of a sourceless post ... we should take a deep breath and focus on the real issue: The Man Known Only as Dave Wang.

[ThomThom]

Dave Wang = Sheer fucking brilliance

I think my parents saw Billy Joel and Elton John there a few years back, I'll ask them how they liked the venue. I still want the fucking Bowl!

I wonder if Dave Wang would perform with Daft Punk.

[rage patton]

You, malcolmjamalawesome or whatever... stop making Dave Wang jokes!
I have read about 10 posts from you in the last 5 minutes... and they ALL reference Dave Wang.
Just stop it. Haha Dave Wang! Funny.
Not.

[malcolmjamalawesome]

Doubtful, he once suckerpunched Daft Punk Robot #2.

[malcolmjamalawesome]

Believe me, rage patton, when the Dave Wang Rapture comes to Canada, you'll be glad to have heard the name Dave Wang. And that Trance is Dead.

[ThomThom]

Dave Wang would probably be a good opener.
Word on the street is that Dave Wang is playing a secret show at the Glass House on the night before Coachella.

They do raves at the Sports Arena all the time....

Oh well that explains it

[malcolmjamalawesome]

There's actually a special Dave Wang VIP Bracelet this year. They're on eBay already but RIDICULOUS $$$.

[summerkid]

What's the set up for the raves do you know?

[malcolmjamalawesome]

The rave set up is this: If you're not raging hard enough, Dave Wang walks up to you and spits into your open mouth, like in the movie "The Program".
"Starting defense! Seat at the table!"

[Ardentbiscuit]

Honestly if they played the sports arena I would be let down. That place is mostly where they have mega raves with kids in pajamas with pacifiers and mickey mouse gloves.

Oddly enough that fits the exact description of a Dave Wang fan

[malcolmjamalawesome]

Dave Wang certainly does not feel that Mickey Mouse Gloves are Dead. But Trance is.

But... its Daft Punk.

I don't think you can go wrong.

I guess your right, I will have to just take them while I can, I only hope that the Sports Arena has Dave Wang VIP parking.

[Ardentbiscuit]

That's true, it's hard to go wrong with daft punk but the thing is last time I was at the sports arena I watched a bunch of guys beat up this one guy on the dance floor to the beat of the of the DJ that was on. That didn't really appeal to me.

Also, how is that everyone on every board/blog/website has insider information? Either they know someone, or are related to someone, or work for someone?? And why is it they always want to spill it on a public board? I'm not saying this information is accurate or inaccurate. I am just curious how it seems this happens every day in message board posts.

I suppose if you mention enough information about half of it is bound to be accurate. I could just easily list a bunch of bands and chances are some off them will probably play a festival later this year...

[malcolmjamalawesome]

They were beating someone up to the beat of a song? Dave Wang hopes it wasn't a Drums N Bass set.

Holy shit that sounds hilarious! I am on youtube as we speak!

[malcolmjamalawesome]

Certainly doesn't seem like PLUR-friendly behavior.

well my source came from one of our very own board members who has direct contact with Daft Punk's manager Busy P (Pedro Winters). I would say his screen name, but I figure I'll save him the harassment and let him speak out on his own, if he should choose to.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ThomThom]

Fucking Lollapalooza! I hate them...Pearl Jam and Daft Punk...wait, what about Dave Wang?

[malcolmjamalawesome]

Dave Wang nicknamed Perry Farrel "Peretz" at the Viper Room.
