Daft Punk Is Playing At My Tax-Supported Concert Hall
Honestly, I’d been sitting on that title for a couple months now, so I just felt I needed to use it.
But, anyway. Daft Punk plays at the WaMu Hall (which is just a big concrete box in the Qwest Field hall — with colorful curtains!) tonight at 8, with NYC dance-punkers The Rapture opening. Need tickets? Good luck.
As best as I can tell, this is Daft Punk’s first Seattle concert in ten years (that right?), so if you miss out, I’m sure they’ll be back around in 2017. By then, you’ll be approaching middle age and swatting West Nile infected mosquitoes off your children while the robots hold court at ZooTunes. In other words, if you’ve got the money burning a hole in your pocket, tonight’s the night you go meet the person with whom you will have those toddlers who will be bouncing to “High Fidelity” at the zoo in ten years.
Or maybe it’s a robot, if you’re one of those robosexuals. Not that there’s anything wrong with that. I’m no robophobe.


What about robots wearing kilts? Are those OK, or a bridge too far?
