ROKTRONIK

Unless your name is Helen Keller or have been living under a rock for the past two decades, surely you’re aware of the French electronic music tag team known as Daft Punk.

Despite a period of lull and quiet since their most recent tour-of-epic-proportions titled, Alive 2007, there has been a recent surge of buzz surrounding Daft Punk’s involvement with the upcoming rendition of Disney’s cult-classic, Tron (Tron: Legacy to premiere 12/17/2010). One particular rumor that we, along with everyone else and their mothers, have been actively and eagerly tracking is a potential Daft Punk World Tour in conjunction with the Tron: Legacy movie and the 24 tracks they were commissioned to compose for the score.

While the details we’ve come across regarding this tour have yet to be confirmed by Daft Punk officially, the leaked tour dates seem fairly legit considering that the movie has been in post-production since February of this year. That said, check out the unofficial-official 2010 Daft Punk World Tour dates below!

In addition, we came across a ticket link for one of the shows at Heineken Music Hall’s website that happens to be in accordance with the rumored location/date (August 1st in Amsterdam)–so that’s got to account for something, right? Regardless, you’d be silly not to put ‘em back on your radars…they’re definitely touring either this year or next so no matter what, it looks as though we’re in for a very Daft treat in the near future
