Far be it for inthemix to delve too deep into hyperbole and online gossip (granted, we do love a good piece of questionable news juice), but some things are just too good to pass up. Case in point, when some local tour dates announcing the local return of French electro titans Daft Punk emerged online, we couldn’t help but run some news.
As spotted on the Last.fm profile page for the robotic duo, two Australian dates have emerged, speculating that Daft Punk’s beloved pyramid is due to touch down in both Sydney and Melbourne next winter – that’s August 22nd and August 28th respectively.
Whilst it’s already come to light that Daft Punk would once again hit the road next year in support of their Tron Legacy film score, supporting the leaked dates, we’re going to keep from going overboard with excitement incase this is just a case of internet duping. Indeed, that the rumoured Sydney show falls on a Sunday next year lends credibility to the theory that this is a cruel hoax. But still, that won’t stop us dreaming of robots tonight…
Daft Punk Rumoured 2010 Tour Dates:
Aug 22nd – Sydney Football Stadium, Sydney
Aug 28th – Olympic Park, Melbourne

thursday says...
I don't think they are. I'm going to add Brisbane and Perth dates right now. No Adelaide. Freaks.
Ben Royal says...
So this rumour is the new Rectangular Stadium at Melbourne and Olympic Parks? Thats an interesting venue......
vandoogle says...

CRoNic says...
Information already gone off the site!
McHead says...
I'm not believing this until it's on their Myspace page!

omg no wai!
tylerj23 says...
When it is officially announced - then report on it.
cloudpost says...
I call bullshit. The events were added by some guy called Kevin119 from Ireland. He claims "It being announced official within 1 month. I got it from a friend who's working at livenation " (taken from the event at Wembley Arena on last.fm). This guy seems legit...

daft punk are the worst
hydee says...
Even more amazing ITM news journalism. Reporting on "rumoured, leaked, daft punk tour dates." AHAHAHHA u tossers, you think they would lug that pyramid all the way back here so soon? With with what new material? Their tron "legacy"... far out. Why don't you reporters, ask DJ's themselves, or do research, or get credible news instead of posting this shit, or akons brawl etc. No news here people. Daft Punk will not be touring next year, or the year after or the year after that. Go back to your jobs, continue to pay taxes.

please please please do a perth show! i will fly to the eastern states for it but it would be so much easier if they came to Perth
lanesra23 says...
This is as bad as the newspapers that reported Bowie and Massive Attack for BDO after someone on Last.fm posted a 'leaked' line-up.
mangina says...
No surprise they are back in winter, they would have sweated their balls in those suits when they were out here in december.
daverh says...
am i blind or does the article actually acknowledge that it's more than likely a rumour? sheesh guys.
flippy says...
if they're here, then i'm there - get your head around THAT.
Dee Jay Mikey says...
I just creamed my pants
Fratello says...
Jesus, hydee, take a chill pill. What's the difference between ITM posting about a rumour and you declaring they're never coming back? Just a bit of fun. AND. If it turns out to be true, you read it here first.
djbricksta says...
Wherever they are, i will be
chris_b91 says...
their not bringing the pyramid back anyway, sydney was the last show to use it
sonicc says...
Aill there be dogs???
InTheForest says...
perth?
seethehell says...
All you ITM bashers should be ashamed of yourselves. The article CLEARLY states that this info is found on the interweb and is no way credible and factual. ITM just wants to keep you in the loop you idiots!! Plus, when the French robots DO announce their upcoming tour and DO come to Australia, ALL of you will be scrambling to get tickets and telling all your mates what die hard fans you are... and how you got your presale tix through inthemix!!
danmau5 says...
hydee, get over it man. seriously. nobody wants to read the comments from you on every article about how shit the writing is.
Warn-A-Brotha says...
Pyramid was epic. Cant wait for this.
Gouldy says...
