Pinned Review
Remarkable.
I was there. Sooo good I went to see it all over again when they came to Coney Island.
Perhaps what people may not realise as much now is that at the time of these live shows Daft Punk were seen as way past it. Times had changed, people moved on and the production on their last album (March 2005) had seemed out of step and lacklustre.

For better or worse, richer or poorer... each of these brings back a specific (pleasant) memory fairly close to the date of their release. Each is a prompt to a very specific recollection of people ...
