damn, i couldn't find tickets for that; I'm not a huge fan but i have heard a lot of great things about their show.

So how was it?!
I thought it was really good! I was a little tired from having to work at 8am that morning but it was alright.

The visuals were Amazing! I think the siblings relied on them a bit to much though. They only played an hour, and I think it was because they have everything planned out cookie cutter like to go with the visuals. Not much versatility I guess you could say. It was still really good, and very fun :P .

Edit: the visuals consisted of spacey or dark forest scenes or 80's era computer graphics/MSPaint type stuff. Basically they project some visuals on a back screen, and then have a transparent net/screen in front of them that was capturing some visuals from the soundboard area as well.

They also had some separate smaller screens around the stage that displayed contorted faces that would do back up vocals on some of the songs. And then there was of course their costumes.

The first link shows the use of the faces as singers. The second more so the screen visualizations.

Daft Punk's visualizations are still my favorite live ones :o
