great photo but why is it ALL MEN
― blueski, Tuesday, 24 July 2007 23:05 (sixteen years ago) link
Not sure, gender split was pretty even.
― Spencer Chow, Tuesday, 24 July 2007 23:10 (sixteen years ago) link
These people look British!
― admrl, Tuesday, 24 July 2007 23:11 (sixteen years ago) link

Did LA have three opening acts like there appear to be for the Seattle show?
― Scott CE, Wednesday, 25 July 2007 00:33 (sixteen years ago) link
LA had Ratatat (terrible) and then two DJ sets with SebastiAn and Kavinsky (who are awesome)
― Spencer Chow, Wednesday, 25 July 2007 00:36 (sixteen years ago) link
wait i heard that it was the same setlist/choreography as coachella...
hmmm...
spencer are you positive?
― Steve Shasta, Wednesday, 25 July 2007 00:38 (sixteen years ago) link
100% Some elements and sections were the same (1st half at least). There are also new effects and the whole encore is new.
― Spencer Chow, Wednesday, 25 July 2007 00:52 (sixteen years ago) link
I should say 100% positive. I rarely post anything I'm not positive about.
― Spencer Chow, Wednesday, 25 July 2007 00:53 (sixteen years ago) link
yeah there was a lot of similar stuff the coachella set, but this one was like a half-hour longer.
― max, Wednesday, 25 July 2007 01:47 (sixteen years ago) link
it was alot of the same samples and stuff of course. i dont think any two sets are going to be exactly the same. they are mixin on the fly.

damn what's all them wires about? xpost
― tremendoid, Wednesday, 25 July 2007 02:00 (sixteen years ago) link
that setup is actually surprisingly simpler than what I had imagined. A whole lot less computer monitor screens than I would have though.
― sous les paves, Wednesday, 25 July 2007 02:43 (sixteen years ago) link
err thought.
psyched for friday!!!!!!!!
― tricky, Wednesday, 25 July 2007 02:44 (sixteen years ago) link
No computers it would appear, but they were using Jazzmutant Lemurs to control everything.

And Max, I was there on the Concourse as well, row 1 of section 7, which was way in back. Nosebleed, but I saw everything, and it didn't keep me and the gf from dancing through the whole set!

dude's face in that photo is unbelievable. like WAHT

Saw them in Berlin a few weeks ago doing the same set. Lights around stadium in pix here look much better. We had way too much ambient light unfortunately. Cracking set, it was great looking up at stage and seeing them pump fists in the air. The masks and suit thing was incredible, so much better than last year! They also appear to be Jay Z fans as they were doing the pyramid hands thing at the end...

o man i can't wait. i hope the fact that i am in the seated section of keyspan doesn't totally suck.
― mizzell, Wednesday, 25 July 2007 15:48 (sixteen years ago) link
thanks Spencer!

Hedi Slimane designed their outfits and took some live pictures last month. They are AMAZING: http://www.hedislimane.com/diary/day.php?m=6&y=2007&d=17

Anyone going to the Seattle show on Sunday or going to the aftershow?
I've put my name down for the free guestlist for the aftershow, but I feel pretty silly going to a club by myself. I'm even spending an extra night in Seattle because of this show (originally I was supposed to leave early monday morning)
― Jill, Friday, 27 July 2007 06:10 (sixteen years ago) link
I am waaaaay kicking myself over this. I can't even get some scalped tickets and skip work, because I'm in hot water over my chronic tardiness. Is Daft Punk worth getting fired over? I think it may be.
― The Reverend, Friday, 27 July 2007 14:44 (sixteen years ago) link
don't worry they'll probably tour again in TEN YEARS
― blueski, Friday, 27 July 2007 15:26 (sixteen years ago) link
Ya, I know. : (
― The Reverend, Friday, 27 July 2007 15:27 (sixteen years ago) link
They're worth it. I'm serious as cancer when I say Daft Punk is... good?? Arse.
