Daft Punk
Keyspan Park
Coney Island
August 9th

I finally got an answer to that age olde question that has been plaguing scienastrologists for ages: What kinda concert do two French robots put on? Happarently one of the most RAWKinest ones mt EVERest and mt BLANC! With the imagery of Tron, THX-1138, the Star Wars arcade game, Intel, and the Masons, Daft Punk pieced together the mos bananas and grapefruit ear and eyegasams of this new century! While they may only be two dudes juss twiddling knobs to pre-recorded music inside a pyramid, I still wouldn’t trade the eggspeareance in for 17 live Jimi Hendrix guitar solos. Wait, what the hell am I saying? Anyblaze, the non-stop mix they played got the usually tame/lame NYCers toe tappinin and hands clapinin from the get go to the get end. I mean, they may be robots, but they is human after all!


looks like the only thing I missed out on all night was this NSFW subway ride!

and oh yeah, the other nite at the Beacon, we totally JOed to Chris Isaak, juss like it was the ’06

and oh yeah, schlappy 75th bursday LEGO!

Great Danes

Who doesn’t love a good Danish? Personally, you can’t go wrong with Entenmann’s Danish Walnut Ring, but I prefer the sweet sweet sounds of Junior Senior juss a wee bit mo. Oh yeah, remember them? Well, next Tuesday the follow-up to their insta-classic D-D-Don’t Don’t Stop the Beat, Hey Hey My My Yo Yo, finally gets a US release


Shiz has been around since the ’05 (their thumcredible ditty with the B-52 ladies ‘Take My Time’ [vid] even made our best of list for that year!), but to make up for the delay, some come with a limited edish 7-song EP, Say Hello, Wave Goodbye

But wait folks, there be more! They is touring and it’s a show not to be missed. How do we know? Well, we caught them at the Merc Lounge back in the ’05 tis was so rawkin that we’re catchin em again next week too! And so can you! I got a pair of tickets to give away to the NYC show. All ya gotta do is tell me whom you think the greatestest Junior/Senior combo is and why. For example, me thinks Professor Henry Jones, Sr. and his son Dr. Henry ‘Indiana’ Jones, Jr. are the knees beez cause they both banged the same Nazi chick!

Here’s the rest of the dates
that you should make a date for

08/10 New Orleans, LA – Ryko Convention (Tipitina’s Uptown)
08/11 Boston, MA – Middle East
08/13 New York, NY – Highline Ballroom
08/15 Los Angeles, CA – Roxy
