International News: Daft Punk not playing in China
February 18th, 2009 by adminimg src=http://fntrack.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/52872.jpg / pHad you heard the rumour currently circulating online that Daft Punk would play a surprise show in Shanghai, China, this weekend? If you bought the story and were trying to decide whether to book yourself a last minute flight – it’s only, what, 12 hours away? – take note#8230;/p pA Facebook page popped up recently, hyping the duo’s impending visit to China as a secret. “…the french mythical electronic band Daft Punk is coming in Shanghai for one very special night on friday 13th February with a devious concept called dafthidden 09 tour,” read the grammatically challenged post./p pHarmless fun, right? Wrong, the page also listed a phone number and email address, and asked for keen beans to buy a ticket to the show. They’d then receive an SMS on the day of the event with the location of the secret gig. Except there is no gig#8230; and the page now says tickets have sold out. It’s unknown whether any money was made off the scam/trick, we can only hope not!/p br / br
