Until now, if you wanted to see the epic audiovisual experience that is Daft Punk live in concert, you either had to see them play live yourself (which I strongly--and repeatedly--urge you to do) or watch grainy, compressed audience video shot by amatuers.
That all changes now.
These two videos capture the robotic duo playing live this past weekend at London's O2 Wireless Festival. These videos (which not only are pro shot but also utilize multiple camera angles and some pretty spiffy editing) were broadcast on UK Channel 4 (note to American broadcasters: there is an audience for this stuff and you should maybe think about giving the consumers what they want).
"One More Time" / "Aerodynamic"
If the setlists bear any resemblance to last year, this tune was played near the middle of the set. I think that the twilight conditions verify that. Funny, I never in a thousand years would have thought that Daft Punk would begin their set while it was still light out.
"Rollin' & Scratchin' / "Da Funk" / "Superheroes"
Last year, this was the encore. I wish i would have brought a container to put my brain into after it ended, since my mnd slowly but surely dripped out my ears during the set.
How long until Brooklyn?

My first words after the encore ended: Did all that just happen?
Your response: No.
Interestingly enough, I don't remember that. I do remember being unable to see correctly due to sensory overload. Thank goodness Farbs drove us home...
