It's ridiculous the amount of threads I/others have started. So....
Here is the full questions I would like answered along with other people. This is designed for new additions to see.
1. Will they or won't they come to Australia, and if so, when and what city?
2. An age restriction?
3. Speculated areas where they will be
and 4. Any other useful info you may have. It's time to straighten most of this out!
PS - will post any new info I get. I scour the internet and papers for info on noit just Australia, but any other country and send it to the admin.

i read somewhere that daft punk will try in the near future to travel down, but they said it will cost to much for the set and equipment to be transported!...
nspurway
22nd Aug 2007, 06:56
Augh! They said that at the Electroma screening, but the Herald Sun article said they 'plan' to go this year and Headline the Myer Music Bowl in Melbourne. COnfimations anyone?

Fair enough. I mean I thought they were ages ago - however my screen res must have chased them far off screen for me to notice it. Thanks.

This is the big one people… We’ve literally been hanging on the line for years, with the tantalizing possibility of those loveable French robots Daft Punk bringing their spectacular live show to Australia. The mystique that has grown around the group is really quite incredible: we’ve salivated over the YouTube clips, torn our hair out in frustration over those fruitless rumours and debated it endlessly on the forums. Now ITM can confirm the recent talk is true! Here are the facts…
Brought to you by Michael Coppel and Modular, and presented by inthemix, the ‘Never Ever Land’ tour will see the pyramid spectacular landing in Australia for four massive shows this December, with a world-class roster of supports to back up the robot rockers. In addition to the almighty presence of Daft Punk, we’ll also be enjoying sets from a number of acts on the Modular roster. Indie-electro rockers The Presets will be playing one of their last shows before they disappear to record their second album, while rising star Muscles will be clocking in, as will the ubiquitous Bang Gang DJ posse, also warming up the crowds.
As if that wasn’t enough, we’ll have a second international guest in the form of fellow French dance duo SebastiAn & Kavinsky. One of the current stable of French producers on the Ed Banger label, dominating dancefloors around the world, they come from a musical heritage that is inextricably linked to massive legacy left by Daft Punk, so their presence on the bill is appropriate indeed. How’s that for a massive lineup?
As per usual inthemix will be bringing you all the tasty goodies, as we’ll be offering exclusive presales to this massive tour. Stay tuned for another announcement tomorrow! And be prepared to stare in slack-jawed amazement when Daft Punk’s mystical pyramid lights up Australia this December.
Daft Punk will be playing the following shows on the ‘Never Ever Land’ tour, presented by inthemix!
Friday December 14th: Sidney Myer Music Bowl, Melbourne
Sunday December 16th: The Esplanade, Perth
Thursday December 20th: The Riverstage, Brisbane
Saturday December 22nd: Homebush Showgrounds Main Arena, Sydney
This year could be the first time i have been to Melbourne, but not the first that i've been to Brisbane! If i can afford it all, i'm going to the Melbourne, Brissy and Sydney show.

30th Aug 2007, 00:52
This is where the good info's at... for those in Perth- if you look extremely close at where the perth date is, it looks like it says "to be approved by city of perth" or something.. i can barely make it out. Oh god this is going to be good- Brissy River stage... Summer's night... Nothing could be better. PRESETS SEBASTIAN AND KAVINSKY... Just got even better ;)
http://nevereverland.com.au/daft_punk/
ooo man the presets!!! dang i really need to go.... who else is gonna go for sure? i dont want to be by myself since no one else i know is willing to travel to australia with me :(
agentm
30th Aug 2007, 01:37
Your actually travelling TO Australia? Where the hell are you? Im there anyway. Brissy 20th decemeber baby.. allllriiigghhht.
im from california :)
besides i need a vacation so i plan to stay there for around a week and take in the sights. i'll probably be at the sydney show since my school lets out on the 20th so if i take a plane that night then i can get to Australia at around 7am on the 22nd :)
agentm
30th Aug 2007, 02:03
Hahahaha thats epic. just make sure its not 18+ I honestly think Brisbane and Melbourne would be the best shows. Melbourne because it's big on music and the scene's different down there, and Brisbane because of the weather and the fact that its on the river. Christmas really did come early this year.
haha well i dont really have a choice right now :( sydeny is the only show i can attend possibly... all i'm worried about is that I will be bored by myself after the DP concert is over and i have a week to myself in Australia.

You cant really get bored in Australia even if you were by yourself. Sydney is quite a nice place if you visit the right spots. Its got a great CBD.. its just big.
And yes.. our patience has finally been rewarded.
haha i don't know i never liked roaming around by myself so i guess i might give it a try. I just hope i can afford to travel there though :(

haha spurway i might see u at the sydney show bro :)
nspurway
30th Aug 2007, 07:08
Hurray see you there:D
It won't be 18+... that's ridiculous. The chemical bros arent. And the Wireless festival in the UK wasn't. and this one isn't even a REAL festival, per se.
spurway,
haha well i'm still debating over going or not because I don't like to travel alone because it makes me feel awkward. And i'm going to have to stay in sydney for a week for the trip to be worthwhile. :(
ahhh i don't know what to do
nspurway
30th Aug 2007, 07:24
I'll be here! Just buzz me on my mobile when you get here:d
spurway.
haha yea but i don't know what to do for the rest of the week :(
nspurway
30th Aug 2007, 07:29
Go to the BridgeClimb. Sydney Tower. Aquarium. Sydney Opera House. Sydney Harbour Bridge...
spurway.
yea i read about the bridgeclimb...sounds fun :) but like i have this insecurity...like i have to be with at least one other person or i feel awkward like you wouldn't believe...yea i'm weird :(
ahhh but daft punk is so tempting... and the presets as well..

Sorry man, but all shows are 18+. Seriously. I intend on going to Melbourne Brissy and Sydney, i really ****ing want to. Just need to save money, and a lot of it!

30th Aug 2007, 21:30
How do you know of this? auuugh...
spurway.
agentm
30th Aug 2007, 23:26
I have a feeling it would be 18+... every other type of festival of this nature I have been to here in Brisbane has been that way. Im not trying to bring you down, spurway.. it would just suck to get your hopes up and then find out later you couldn't go. I suggest waiting and checking out the "new" info that comes out today, or within the next week.
nspurway
30th Aug 2007, 23:50
It isn't a festival though.
That's the difference
It's at one arena venue, with a ton of support acts. This is not a festival - like Parklife. Parklife is spread over everywhere and has many MAIN acts - and it's 18+
I'm an optimist. Besides I can pass for 18 easily methinks:D
spurway.

31st Aug 2007, 00:04
The dates are up on daft punk's page on myspace =D
nspurway
31st Aug 2007, 01:54
Indeed they are. I've checked every day for those dates since March 07. Why is it called NEVEREVERLAND and not Alive 2007?
spurway.
matt_cky
31st Aug 2007, 03:00
Who knows why it's called NEVEREVERLAND. But yes all shows are 18+.
The Sydney show is like a mini festival as the doors open at 2pm and goes till about 11-12 at night. It's going to be one epic day/night.
nspurway
31st Aug 2007, 04:19
That can't be right. Because they aren't streching only six acts to twelve hours. No act besides Daft Punk has beyond 90 minutes work of material. It will only finish maybe around 9pm. How do you know they are 18+?
And the organisers never treat Sydney Showground as a festival if only one venue is used.
spurway.
boutboulman
31st Aug 2007, 04:50
Dude if all shows are 18+, wear make up to make yourself look older, go with a bunch of people who are 18+, bribe security, get a fake id, post on Daft Punk's myspace asking for a special pass, ANYTHING, just [censored]ing go!!!!!
matt_cky
31st Aug 2007, 05:02
Dude, there is still more bands to be announced for this. The Rapture will most likely be doing it, as well as Van She. Check the Ticketmaster site, i think it says somewhere on it that the show you click says it's 18+. Plus it also says that the show begins at 2pm.
nspurway
31st Aug 2007, 06:46
EXCELLENT NEWS FOR EVERYONE!
For those of you who are concerned over the age restirictions, Like I am, then worry no more.
Legally, any ticket website has to provide an age restriction notice, if there is one.
Under ticketmaster.com.au, the MELBOURNE show is ONLY 18+ (i mean that's not excellent - i'm sorry to you melbournians).
That show is the ONLY one which says it's 18+ the other three have no notice whatsoever.
I am 95% sure that it will stay that way. The only reason the Myer Music Bowl is 18+ is... well I dunno why. Fatboy Slim played there in 2006 and it was 18+. Maybe it's what they are required to have
BUT HEY! 3/4 LOCATION AGE FREE!
spurway.
nspurway
31st Aug 2007, 06:48
Oh I'll be going. Just you try and stop me:D Yes. it begins at 2pm. With acts playing till around 9pm I reckon.
Other acts MAY be announced. I seriously doubt they would have held off this long if it more acts were to be announce. I think Bang Gang and Presets will replace the Rapture (???)
more info as it comes through.
spurway.
agentm
31st Aug 2007, 08:29
Spurway, Like I said buddy, dont get your hopes up too high. Ticketmaster keeps updating its site. They still were/are confirming the perth gig and changing venues... so just chill on it for a little and dont freak out. My suggestion would be to CALL ticketmaster and find out.
Pauly
31st Aug 2007, 14:38
Fuk i gota get a fake id now:(
and the stress of getting in
matt_cky
31st Aug 2007, 15:08
I think the Sydney gig will go past 9pm, i'm pretty sure there's still more bands to be announced on the bill. I mean, why would The Rapture say they're doing it decide not to anymore? It's the same with The Avalanches....

I used to live in perth, and now I live in brissy... but it keeps changing the venue for you guys... it said the esplanade, then freemantle, now langly park. If i was still in perth and I missed out on tickets (provided they played at langly park) I could have watched them from my bedroom!
nspurway
1st Sep 2007, 00:09
Daft Punk have completely approved the application for Perth (Cirque du Soleil at Langley Park or something)
It'S ALL LOCKED IN!:D
I am quite chilled about this:D
spurway,
agentm
1st Sep 2007, 00:21
And your 100% sure about this? Because their myspace still says feemantle, and ticketmaster says langely park, and the never ever land site still says the esplenade... So you actually personally know this information is correct?
Im not having a go at you.. im just curious as to how you found this information... and have you spoken to tickmaster yet about your venue being 18+ or not?
nspurway
1st Sep 2007, 00:33
Here is thy deal THY DEAL:D
Daft Punk updated the website on the 30th and have not been on since. nevereverland.com.au was the 29th and is an IMAGE and has not been updated. Ticketmaster is always always updating to make sure the info is correct. Langley Park is the final location. They must have needed approval first.
So yes, I am sure - hope I helped

I would LOVE to accomadate you in my house. Hani is already trying to raise the $AU3500 return ticket:D

2nd Sep 2007, 00:36
hahaha......(not in a mean way)
Man this is the most popular forum!
Lucky I live in Sydney - patience IS a virtue after all!
spurway,
haha that would be cool if daft punk did something special for the last show of this year at sydney. like fireworks and like lightup floor and they have a booth with glass floors that carry them above teh crowd and the booth lights up and synchronizes with all the lights and fireworks :) and they put in all of their mixes and bust out synchronized interstellar movie clips to the discovery songs along with the pyramid setup... ooo man :)
nspurway
2nd Sep 2007, 00:42
I am quite happy just for them to come. If they were going to Shore Thing that would have been awesome. Bu that's 18+

3rd Sep 2007, 04:24
My friends.
Inthemix has confirmed my worst fear. ALL shows are 18+! STUPID TICKETMASTER>
BUT NEVER FEAR! I am confident I can pass for 18 using some tricks I know. Plus, they aren't going to check 51000 tickets... (people). that is stupid.
So sorry it is over 18. I aplologise for confiming it way to early
But go to inthemix on Wednesday September 5, PRE-SALE Is on then for ALL concerts.
spurway.
nspurway
3rd Sep 2007, 04:26
Oh and one more thing. The inthemix info is very detailed, trust that, not Ticketmaster.
Daft Punk, in Sydney, will start at 9pm. the whole thing starts at 2pm. THERE YOU HAVE IT!:D (well unless the show ACTUALLY starts at 9pm and DF don't play till ike 2am:D)

agentm
3rd Sep 2007, 06:14
See my little friend... I told you not to get your hopes too high. But its good to see you be so persistive. I'll be honest with you, I hate partying around kids. Its not cool. But if someone is passionate about something they love, they should in no way be denied the right to experience that. I believe that its for your own protection (alcohol and drug abuse will run rampant at this event), but thats due to a few bad seeds. I honestly wouldn't suggest trying to get in with a shoddy fake i.d... firstly I don't know where you got the 51,000 figure from... but even if that was the case, THEY DO CHECK EVERY PERSON. I majored in event management at uni, and if they don't do proper checks, the security company and or event organisers will be held liable for anything that goes wrong to a minor on the premises..
SOOOOOooooo if you do in fact go for a fake i.d, make sure you do it properly, and take TWO forms of i.d so they don't get suspicious... you get caught, you get fined.
Good luck by the way!
nspurway
3rd Sep 2007, 06:41
Ouch man. That hurt. Still, I said I was on optimist. And I party with people who are like 20 and they actually don't hate me that much...:D
And for me, I actually don't drink or take drugs. I find either quite unappealing.
THanks for the support:D:D
I still have plenty of time. And I am buying tickets anyway.
spurway.
nspurway
3rd Sep 2007, 06:44
51000 people is very hard to get through quickly for IDs... I dunno.
I am hanging out as long as possible and I do have some tricks up my sleeve:D
spurway.
agentm
3rd Sep 2007, 06:51
Like I said man, I personally don't like partying with young kids, but thats me, not the rest of Australia. And I also said you shouldn't be denied the right to see them. And its good to see that your staying off the booze and drugs - they both seem to be breeding some scum into Australia's night life (although I do drink a fair bit which is a bit hypocritical).
Plus if it makes you feel better, I think they should have made it 21+ hahahaha. The only reason im really against the young crowd (when you get older you'll know what im talking about), is the fact a lot of them are just tag alongs and do it for the image. There's no denying it, daft have become a lot bigger since their live sets got noticed.. and a lot of people who didn't know them before are just following the hype..
But, like I said my friend..the best of luck to you. You seem to be genuinly really into the group (obviously). You remind me of when I was 15 and was the worlds biggest Korn fan... And I still stick by them to this day. And I got to their concert... so far one of the best experiences of my life.
matt_cky
3rd Sep 2007, 07:22

A friend rung up Ticketmaster or the number for Riverstage, and they told him that it is definitely 18+. Presale on Wednesday.

That's the kicker you see. inthemix is very reliable, and I just emailed ticketmaster requesting more info regarding the concert.
I appreciate your sympathy:D I'm still buying tickets though...
spurway.
spurway keep your head up man... i really want u to get into that show. I want all dp lovers to be able to experience this religious experience :) i do not condone the use of fake IDs but if you have to find someone that works for your local driver's license place, like the American DMV , that deals in that sort of thing. The magnetic strip on the american ones would make the fake authentic so it would be legit. I do not know how the australian ones work but that might be an idea. OR just borrow an ID of someone that looks like u :) best of luck
nspurway
3rd Sep 2007, 10:53
Australian ones use 16s (or L's for learners) and make a 'scratch' of it. I'm only 15.:(

Dude, you have to get to one of these shows, you've been loading this forum with posts about it for absolute months.
Ask someone who might have connections with Busy P or something to inquire. Daft Punk are legendarily nice, I'm sure you could get a special pass or something if you asked the right people.
All that said, don't get yours hopes up :(
This 18+ thing is utter crock though, what the f??

Thats just the way things are here man... trying to keep the kids safe. I do agree with the age restriction at particular events... However! When I went to the Korn concert in 2004 which was much bigger (about 8,000 people) I would definately not have let my underage kid there... but it would make more sense to let my kid into DP... but in saying that, I dont think there was anyone at Korn on pills (to say the least), where as daft theres gonna be a whoooolllleee lot of drugs.
Sometimes we just get dealt the wrong cards.
And i added an online petition. Christ I have no free time:D

**** woeva made it over 18

3rd Sep 2007, 13:39
Thankyou for your support:P
Actually, the concert has capacity for 51000 people!!!
utter crock indeed. The age limit makes younger people do more illegal and stupid things. **** me...
Just you wait. I'm still buying my tickets, and I will be emailing various people. I already sent Busy P a message and Ticketmaster. Daft Punk don't allow messages I think.
Anyone for help?
Pauly - the Melbourne show is so ****ing tightass (NO ID NO ENTRY) you will NEED a good fake ID! If you get one, can I have the persons' name?
spurway.
nspurway
3rd Sep 2007, 13:40
And yes, I did like them when I was ten. Who didn't like One More Time?:P
And also, I know ALL AGES would be beneficial, but 15+ sounds like an easier targer don't you think?
spurwya.
agentm
3rd Sep 2007, 13:50
Okay, firstly the crowd capacity I keep referring to is Brisbane, not Sydney. Secondly, they probably will not open the grounds for the 51,000 capacity.. I keep going back to this korn concert, but the place was sold out... but wasn't completely open. Thirdly, at any one of these given events THEY WILL BE CHECKING EVERY ID.
If you wanna try get in contact with Busy P, why not try parklife this month? I highly doubt you'll be able to meet or speak to him... but in your case anything is worth a try.
And finally, if they were going to make it 15 and above, they may as well have it all ages.. its not the content of the music thats making it 18+ buddy...
nspurway
3rd Sep 2007, 13:52
Those idiots who made that 18+ limit...
But I agree.
PArklife, ironically, is 18+... no luck there..
**** **** ****. Lifelines are slipping slipping. SO many people will be disappointed. The higher age limit makes it more enticing for younger people to do illegal things...
Example: Homebake is 18+ this year because the below-18 demographic was 5-8% of all ticket sales for the festival. This has influence on other concerts. I think you won't find a person my age or thereabouts who would kill to go to Daft Punk...
spurway.
nspurway
3rd Sep 2007, 13:57
I am livid. Furious at this age restriction. I don't want to do anything illegal, but if push comes to shove, so be it.
This is utter crap. I have waited since 2002 (when I got into them with 'One More Time') for them to come here. Obviously I was far too ****ing optimistic. And considering I am 15, without a Ls driver permit, which is what many fake IDs are made from, and considering every single person will have thier ID checked at every show (jesus... WHY???) I am completely and utterly screwed on all fronts..
GODDAMIT! I would like to appeal to Daft Punk, but they disable messages on MySpace. ****!
spurway.
nspurway
3rd Sep 2007, 14:04
Okay
I am sorry to yell and get so angry but it seems unfair
But I found someone who can make a proof of age card, that is very good quality.
Thanks to everyone for their support. If anyone wants a fakey, just ask me to asky my mate.
And, I will keep yez posted on my thing to lower the age restriciton

So Ticketmaster keep putting the prices up and taking them down. At the moment, it has Sydney at $127.50 and Melbourne at $124.64. Weird price for Melbourne but we'll find out tomorrow at midday what the official prices are when the presales go on sale.

I have no wish to start a fight, but for the legal age in the US to be 18, and 21 for drinking, is bizarre, it will certainly seem bizarre to non americans. Why the tough age rules on this, when it's a constitutional right to be able to own a gun?? What's the age limit on that??

70000-90000 in total. They need to play at massive locations (Sydney is the biggest in 2007 and the last show! So specail...) to cover the cost of going. They Sydney show roughly gets $7.4 million in sales only!

For all set times, maps and terms & conditions for entry, click here.
1. CHANGED START TIMES IN MELBOURNE & BRISBANE
Despite what your printed ticket says, we’ve decided to fling open the gates to the NEVEREVERLAND shows early in Melbourne and Brisbane.
Both Melbourne shows begin at 5pm
Brisbane kicks off at 4.30pm
2. CASH UP BEFORE YOU TURN UP
At all NEVEREVERLAND venues around the country, there are only limited ATMs available.
You would be best advised to ensure you have all the money you need for the shows on arrival, or otherwise risk long lines for the cash machines.
3. WEATHER WATCH
At the mercy of elements, we could be in store for some hot-hot-hot afternoons and stormy evenings.
Bring sunscreen, hat and clothes that can protect you from the ravages of the great outdoors.
4. CARDED
NEVEREVERLAND is strictly an 18+ event. It is likely that you will be asked to present some form of photo identification upon arrival.
5. NO PASSOUTS
Once you’re in, you won’t be able to leave and come back in again.
6. BRING:
Ticket, cash, hat, sunscreen, photo I.D. and your best robot rock dance moves.
7. DON’T BRING:
Glass bottles, professional cameras, weapons, drugs or a frown.
Your last chance to catch the pharaohs of pyramid-shaped electro, Daft Punk at NEVEREVERLAND is to grab tickets for either the Melbourne show on Dec 13 or Perth on Dec 16. Go here to get them.

dozens of people are high or drunk at every daft punk show. regardless of where its at. no doubt the same thing has happened before at a dp show. think about it, they played in amsterdam....ive got an aunt and a cousin that went to that show and she was mainly in disgust about how shes never been around so much of that in her life that it ruined the show in general for her.
oh and um.....is it just me, or did an entire row of lights on the right side of the pyramid not ever light up during the first melbourne show???? ive noticed it in many of the vids i saw

Is it just me or did the intro (Robot/Human) seem shorter than usual? Either that or it's seriously lacking alot of energy or something.

Hmmmm you could be right...
this was outside the bowl - and not inside - which means it may have been lost in translation
They muted "Robot" so people could sing it.
And no, it's the same length...:D

The whole thing about the 3 people overdosing was not to emphasis drug use, it was the fact that there were no ambulances on hand despite it being a free service that was recomended before the show.
However, they're blaming the concert organisers... What happened to blaming the dickheads that take too many drugs?

That is true. Your fault you OD'd.
Not the concert organisers.
IS there ACTUALLY a first-aid tent on site??

true, ppl should just be careful and dont do anything stupid...i mean you wanna make the show enjoyable. (as it is without them just as much also). but again..blah..i hate when ppl do stuff like that to where nothing around them is even coherent. that part just suxx.
oh adn as for the show..i like how they muted a certain part in robot rock for likea full few bars. kinda ocol i like hearing all the little/major differences in each show.
and as for the lights....im sure that part i talked about was a real messup. i mean..it didnt jeopordize the show..its just that part of the lights never came on. but oh well. i think the melbourne vids i saw so far were great and had alot of energy.
as for daft punk...i have no clue why i think this, but somethign tells me that they sorta rushe through it and didnt exactly seem like they were excited bout the first melbourne show as everyone else. thats just what i think and i could be wrong.

Yea there was and like first aid people surveying the area and as i was walking out and like into the city i saw a ambulance with its lights on speeding so im sure it was one of the dudes that o.d'd
and people that got caught jumping in only got thrown out not repremanded or fined or even warned?

a) Can you show me this mess-up? I'd be interested to see it, because all the footage I've seen has everything lighting up perfectly, and I don't remember noticing it when I was actually there.
b) How can you tell that from video footage?

around the 3:00 mark it seems like the right (the spot ones, angled along with the pyramid) track lights seem to not work as well as the rest then seem to not work at all at a point. i dunno, its a 50/50 thing really. its just weird that one row would work less as much as the other.
b) like i said, i really dont know. its just me and iuno what im talkin bout. some things just seem weird to me. wish i knew how to explain it sorry. im sure its just me being hella weird. ive got the weirdest sort of biases towards the dumbest things haha.

IS IT BETTER to buy it after or before.
How did you carry all of that!?
DaftClubber
15th Dec 2007, 12:50
It's better to buy it before because the line is longer after the show. I bought 3 shirts before the show and 1 more after. They run out of the popular sizes if u buy them after. The blue Daft Punk shirt and Alive shirt only came in men sizes, so I got the Alive shirt in small, but I got the blue Daft Punk in medium because they ran out of small.
I brought a bag to carry them. I'm glad it was big enough.

Because men's T-shirts are pretty much standard, but those babydoll T's are cut differently. To accentuate your child bearing hips or something, I dunno I'm not a girl.

Otherwise I'd ask Nspuraway to buy me a shirt! :)
I dont really wanna get another pyramid shirt (cause I have one) just cause it has more dates...rather, i'd want the one with all the dates....
UNLESS...someone wants to buy my pyramid shirt (XL) thats only been worn twice (washed of course) that I got in Denver so an Aussie can get me the updated one!!
