Fellow DJ Pete Tong hitches a ride for the first two shows; Paul Oakenfold catches three slots; Sasha & John Digweed are onboard for two shows; and James Holroyd guests for one night. More dates for the Chemical Brothers are expected to be added.
The guys are saying they've turned their new shows "to 11 with a brand new spectacle of sound and vision." But what exactly does that translate to?
According to Aussie mag Undercover, the show downunder - where they were during the beginning of March - featured a "fantastic bridge-of-the-Starship-Enterprise stage, an incredible round roof-of-the-Starship-Enterprise thing/screen, two fantastic smaller screens on either side," and "the brightest and most attention-grabbing backdrop you have ever seen" with "six screens working in synch dominate(ing) the stage, causing a silhouette of everything in its path."
Hope that's not spoiling any surprises for northern hemisphere fans.
Before landing on this side of the pond, the Chemical Brothers will be busy with a tour of their home country and Europe. After their April stint in North America, they head to Mexico for one show on the 30th.
