After leaving Canal+ where we saw Soulman Black Joe Lewis & the Honeybears , we headed to Radio France next to the Eiffel Tower for a Black Session with New Yorkers : Pains Of Being Pure At Heart.
We get there just 2 minutes before they went on stage infront of another selected audience of 250 people confortably seated in red sofas like in a movie theatre.
The guys ( and the japanese looking girl on keyboards ) are quite young.
They are playing a mix between English early 80's indie rock and soft american college radio rock.
They have a few good songs including a couple of great ones ( which are sounding like the early Cure ).
Unfortunately most of their repertoire is sounding the same and the last 20 min of the hour show were pretty boring.
