daft punk

paul was in town today with a band playing summer sonic in osaka so I headed over to see him. I was going to meet up, hang around and head home if he was busy but then I saw daft punk were playing. I always thought they were scottish to begin with - probably because they were on soma records first off. from the opening close encounters theme tune and the star-wars-esque outfits daft punk were great fun: the light show was a bit like blake-7 meets tron. It was a good show but you can't help wondering if they get bored with doing the same stuff no matter how good it is live. it was also a bit like going to club and just as a song begins to work up, they change to another to keep the easily bored crowd, happy. no encore but the other french guys, phoenix, were good too.

there were lot's of scots about today too. I met about 8 probably due to the wheelers top I was wearing. I've not met any before in japan aside mates. most of the celtic shirts I saw were on japanese backs though.
