Daft Punk - Let's start the petition right here, right now

maybe theyre a bit too big for the other stage, but they're probably not quite big enough to headline the pyramid. As incredible as it would be to see them on the pyramid stage, i don't think it would happen. Even second headliners would be a no no because it wouldn't be dark.

I think if anything it'd be the other stage definitely

[Vieuphoria]

i think people are kinnda overestimating how big they are? :s

[worthyraver]

Whatever stage Pyramid or Other, it would just be awesome to see them play, when they drop Da Funk I would be all over the place a bit like I am when Leftfield drop Phat Planet. It is hard to believe that Da Funk one of my favourite tracks of all time was released back in 1995.

There is always calls for them to play from these boards, but this is the first time for a good number of years that it seems that it could really happen.

They are the one band that could possibly top Orbital for me

[philly_eds]

i agree.

dont get me wrong, i love them, bought Homework the day it came out, saw them in the dance tent in '97 etc etc (where to my ears they weren't too hot that night, but that could be just me having spent 5 days in the swamp that year), but the Other Stage is plenty big enough.

[Filthy]

Would love to see Justice again

They're the biggest dance act in the world, I can't see how they wouldn't be big enough to headline Pyramid?

[j...rox]

This would be good although it's an inevitable clash with the other headliner. Oh to like many genres!

[Walter Sobchak]

Yes please!

They were f**king immense at global gathering 06!

[thesecretingredientiscrime]

are they though? In terms of reputation for their live performances yes but in terms of recent hits? I don't think so.

They would definitely pack out the other stage field though

[Okky]

I WOULD LOVE DAFT PUNK!

[rexclark]

I really, really hope that they play. Any stage, any time.

[rubenz]

Maybe Thomas Bangalter could do a couple of after hours appearances on the turntables..

Something along these lines..

with these supporting..? ahhh French electro!!

[1mills]

I do. Who else is there? I think most people, worldwide, would at least know HBFS.

[CitizenLame]

daft punk would be amazing at glasto!

i hope they have the huge pyramid they had on the alive tour

and on at the same time as U2?? i'd have a heart attack of joy

[Diamond Solitaire]

YES PLEASE

Would be amazing as long as they're not on at the same time as Radiohead I'm all for it

[JC-Mo'Fucka]

Other Stage

-Daft Punk

-The Strokes

-The Chemcial Brothers

i just couldnt give a toss about anything musical/festival related for the whole of 2011 if this happened

still think the strokes are too big for other though, and reading will get them...

My favourite daft punk track right here, with the party scene in the video featuring none other than

DJ Sneak, Roger S, Derrick Carter, Roy Davis Jr, Paul Johnson,and Robert Armani!

I would be happy just to see this bad boy played live..

Brings back some great memories of seeing them live at Leeds Town and Country whilst enjoying some freshly harvested mushrooms we had picked from the golf course earlier in the day!

I also vaguely remember seeing a very early daft punk at back to basics in Leeds in around 1995 I think, which was awesome!

daft punk seem hugely popular on these forums...is it just 10 people who shout about them or is it really everyone? I for one couldn't be arsed. No proper new material since 2006 and nothing planned in the future apart from this soundtrack thing...heard a few tracks the other day and thought they sounded dated amongst other exciting new dance artists today..i admit though there do have a back catolgue to be proud of..If they are genuinely very popular with the glasto crowd and not just here then they are very welcome, but i do feel that you are all maybe overestimating there massiveness..? i might just be out of touch now so hope i'm wrong!

keep dreaming. glasto could never afford them. they would do their own shows and some commercial festivals.

if you'd seen daft punk live you would have no doubt of their ability to headline any stage in the entire world. their back catalogue is stunning. Seek out alive 2007, press play, enjoy.

better light show than any guitar band could ever put on too.

i'd also bet good money they don't tour in 2011. i do think they will tour one more time ( ) before they call it quits, but it wont be next year.

saw them headline at leeds o2 festival a few years back they were fantastic. the light/stage show was out of this world especially when the tron suites came on.so they would be great at glasto.
