Daft Punk Tour 2014: ‘Get Lucky’ Group Denies Show In Devils Tower National Monument in Wyoming, Electronic Duo Playing A Show This Summer?

Daft Punk Tour 2014: Last Wednesday, rumors go around claiming that 'Get Lucky' hit makers Daft Punk had submitted a proposal to play a massive show at the Wyoming Park. This was however rejected according to the Casper Star-Tribune. Representatives for Daft Punk, however, have denied those allegations, saying that the duo was in no way requested to play in the said event, as told to MTV News.

ICM Partners, who were said to be working with the park on the show, sent the following statement to MTV News:

"[We] approached the National Park Service regarding an event which would be held on private property but would include proposed lighting elements at Devils Tower. The agency submitted more than a dozen suggested performers, including Daft Punk, as a sample lineup to the National Park Service. As is the usual case with a music festival, the acts proposed were simply performers and not involved with the planning of this event."

After the success in the recent Grammys, Daft Punk is expected to rule the world with their hip and head bopping sound.

Daft Punk together with Pharell Williams, Nile Rodgers and the one and only Stevie Wonder rocked the Grammys and stole the show after their very heartfelt and hair raising performance of their hit song 'Get Lucky'.

The performance garnered a lot of positive response and even seen in a video where all artists including Jay Z, Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, Yoko Ono and Steve Tyler danced to the groovy tune of the hit song.

The duo's latest album Random Access Memories became a huge hit in the last year and grabbed tons of awards during the Grammys including Best Dance/Electronica Album, Best Engineered Album (Non-Classical), Record of the Year and the duo and Pharell got the award for Best Pop Duo/Group Performance for the hit song.

In recent years, the electronic group has been nominated numerous times for Grammys, also winning the Best Dance Recording for another hit song "Harder Better Faster Stronger" and Best Electronic/Dance Album for the record "Alive 2007", in the 2009 Grammys.

Reporters and critics talked about how the success of the Random Access Memories Album has come to how it is.

"Taking eight years to make an album tends to mean that everyone forgets about you. With Daft Punk it has simply fuelled speculation," wrote Will Hodgkinson in British newspaper The Times of the album.

"Random Access Memories is a blend of disco, robotic vocals, soft rock and smooth easy listening that really shouldn't work but does - brilliantly," he continued.

And British magazine NME hailed it as an "ambitious masterpiece you can't imagine being made by anyone other than Thomas Bangalter and Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo."
