First Impressions of Daft Punk While On Drugs

daftpunkYou know Daft Punk’s album is now out. It’s been streaming, it’s all over torrent sites and whatnot, and if you were lucky enough you got the pleasure of going to Wee Waa last night to hear it out in the middle of the bush. If you consider that lucky. While I’m sure it was awesome, I was unable to attend, but that didn’t stop me getting into the spirit of things. Instead of paying alot of money for petrol, accommodation and drugs, I stayed at home alone and decided not to spend the money on petrol. What I did have was a golden ticket, a chemical I hadn’t hung out with in years. I also had an apartment to myself, an iPod, a laptop and a copy of Daft Punk’s ‘Random Access Memories’, which, until then, I had never heard.

So come with me now, as I give you my first impressions into the most anticipated album of recent memory as I present….. FIRST IMPRESSIONS OF DAFT PUNK WHILE HIGH ON MDMA

Ch-Ch-Chet Faker and a guy named Flume

Chet Faker

As I entered the packed out venue of Festival Hall for the all ages gig, first thing I noticed is that it looked like a school excursion minus the teachers. About one hundred 15-17 year olds were all sitting on the ground near the stage like they were waiting to hear instructions from their teachers. I’ll admit, I hated that aspect of the gig. Definitely prefer over 18 gigs to all ages. I forgot how annoying teenagers can be sometimes.

Nicholas Murphy, aka Chet Faker approached the stage as the roar from the crowd was overwhelming, probably cheering for his beard more than anything. You could see that beastly beard all the way from the back of the venue. One of the most impressive beards I’ve ever seen. Also probably the size of my head.  Continue reading
