In your daily doom scroll, you may have seen a video of what appeared to be French DJ duo Daft Punk<\/a> at Boogies discotheque in East Dallas on Sunday night. <\/p>\n

We hate to ruin fun, but it wasn\u2019t really them. The duo parted ways creatively in 2021, and they did not pick the small bar in Dallas as the destination to get back together, though it would have been an excellent choice. False rumors of reunification are pretty easy to spread when your artistic vision includes easily purchased futuristic masks. <\/a>A small footnote (\u201cjk\u201d) at the bottom of Boogie\u2019s edited Instagram caption reveals the truth, but the post still fooled the quick eye.<\/p>\n

The night was part of Labor of Love, a monthly series at Boogies featuring resident DJs Stephen Carmona and Rami with occasional help from friends. Last night\u2019s rendition featured local synthwave artist LLora and DJ Orbis9, plus two people in Daft Punk masks.\u00a0<\/p>\n

And we can\u2019t blame our fellow Dallasites for feeling instantaneous pangs of jealousy and the fear of missing out on a would-be momentous dance music reunion. The thought of missing Doechii dancing on the Ladylove DJ booth would haunt us for many nights. <\/p>\n

Between Leon Bridges busking in Bishop Arts, Bella Hadid making rodeo guest spots and the All-American Rejects staging a pop-up concert in the half-pipe at 4DWN, celebrity spotting is becoming somewhat of a game in Big D. We\u2019re considering starting a scavenger hunt. One point for Taylor Sheridan and Troy Aikman, three points for Leon Bridges with a guitar and winner takes all if they catch Lana Del Rey, her alligator guide husband and Kacey Musgraves all performing a trio at a Honky Tonk karaoke nigh<\/a>t.<\/a><\/p>\n

Take this as encouragement to get out on the town and enjoy some of the locally owned businesses that make Dallas special, even to the stars. Stay up all night \u2019til the sun, and who knows, you might even get lucky. <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"INDIO, CA – APRIL 29: Daft Punk performs at the Coachella Music Fesival on April 29, 2006 in…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":258479,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[102,104,103,6569,15138,5177,702,11647],"class_list":{"0":"post-258478","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-dallas","8":"tag-dallas","9":"tag-dallas-headlines","10":"tag-dallas-news","11":"tag-dance","12":"tag-edm","13":"tag-national-spotlight","14":"tag-social-media","15":"tag-venues"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/258478","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=258478"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/258478\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/258479"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=258478"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=258478"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=258478"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
