There was a lot of commotion the past few days in the blogosphere about the picture above, posted on Tech Funk Manifesto, which was titled: "Justice Busted". On the picture you see the French electro duo playing a set with a MIDI controller that isn't plugged. Or, in other words, Gaspard Augé is doing effects on a device to which not one single cable is connected. The picture was linked and emailed immediately throughout the internet through which rumors circulated that Justice "doesn't play live", that they had "become lazy" and that they were "just faking it all"...
Justice responded with an official statement:
"Yeah, shit happens! I remember the story, I couldn't remember the city but I think it was in Manchester. I didn't noticed at first, because as you can see I was looking at the computer to launch the next vocal hook and right after I realised that the blue screen went black, so there was no way possible it could work, so I plugged it back in, big deal! And the next thing you know is this picture".And to be really sure that the story above is true, they now also posted before and after pictures of the incident to their myspace:- Gaspard Augé -
PLUGGED
UNPLUGGED
RE-PLUGGED
