but I do... I love Daft Punk to death... like, I love them so much I whoop somebody's ass for talking trash about them, seriously, I would.

I hope to  God that after the Human after all Tour is over, that a DVD box set is released of the entire tour from city to city...with particular interest to Lolla, as the "Chire" (a.k.a. Chicago) is my home. Contrary to popular belief, they do not play the exact same way in every city.... the performance given at Cochella isn't the same as the one they did at Lollapalooza... to me Lolla is better and not just cause it was in Chiccago...especially the end, they did do that at Cochella....

But the show in Dublin was better than Cochella and almost  Lollapalooza...

Sebastian and Kavinsky were the guys playing in the Island thing in the middle of the venue.

Forshame.

And yeah - balls on the after party. Some friends showed up at 10:30 and already the bouncer was saying "No one gets in without a ticket". Whereas the tickets that were pre-sold were only a portion of the total capacity for the night. Bulljive!]]> http://www.blogto.com/music/2007/08/daft_punk_hits_toronto_with_harder_better_faster_stronger_lightshow/#c217029 http://www.blogto.com/music/2007/08/daft_punk_hits_toronto_with_harder_better_faster_stronger_lightshow/#c217029 Toronto, Music Tue, 07 Aug 2007 11:43:00 PDT laki WKD night.  We gave up on the idea of the afterparty because we came to the conclusion that nothing could even remotely compare to the energy of the concert, therefore all subsequent parties were automatically disqualified.

Sebastian & Kavinsky were there, they played a great set, though I understand why you might have thought they were a no show... they were djing from the center of the hall, and the lights were on the whole time.

Just looking at the photos brings back really good memories! :)

They were in the middle part where the light and sound boards were. Thats what the set up lights there where set up for. There was a huge crowd surrounding them they whole time there were playing, I can't believe you missed them. But from the look of the crowd, most people up around the front part of the stage weren't aware either.

Busy P was there with them as well.

Daft Punk simply blew us away.

The Ed Banger after-party was insanely fun. I haven't seen a DJ booth/stage so off the hook with partiers pumping up the crowd, 40oz'rs of booze and magnums of champagne being passed around, vinyl being tossed around, and people just having a total blast. It was a party and a half!

(free before 12- but actually you need tickets- and how convenient- it was soldout!- how much you wanna bet that after 12 some tickets miraculously appeared- for $15 a piece??)
