Best heavy Metal band, great setlist, kicking ass like never before
another great concert even though paul 's voice is now very weak
great show , too bad security was a pain in the ass
with Josh Homme on drums, average songs for an average band it probably saved our life on Nov 13
3 days of music on a beautiful site near switzerland, 5000 people max, lots of great blues bands, felt like holidays
great to see Richie after all these years, music is ok but Richie can still deliver
free concert outdoor, nice set
Kicking ass
August
Rock en Scène Festival with FFS ( another great show) , Benjamin Clementine ( average) The Libertines (overated band with very average songs and poor playing), Etienne daho ( better than expected)...

Short set in one of the hotel's room, nice
Crosby Stills & Nash @ Olympia
Every time we saw them these last few years they were great, at their best in 2015

Stunning venue, great set even though we've never heard the new song before, we stayed there a couple of days and the weather was hot: Holidays

Putain de concert

un des rares chanteur français écoutable
un des rares chanteur français écoutable
superb once again with Horses played for head to toe
2 shows , playing mostly tunes from the last two records and a miracle happened: his voice was listenable.
one of the last bluesman alive , a legend
cool set
November
Poor show , average songs, in fact I realized they were shit
great concert better than with Depeche Mode, electric but respectful atmosphere
felt like seeing Mad Dogs & Englishmen alive
good rock concert, not their best though
well... too many average songs , nice stage if you're seating on each side of the huge screens
first concert after the terrorist attacks, a relief...
great double bill, both delivered great sets
great composer/songwritter, classy
December
better than the november shows, with Eagles of Death Metal and Patti Smith as special guests for the encore, one each night
Music is crap, most of the time she's not singing live but the show is stunning with dancers...
free show for 1200 people: nice for the fans but the band sucks badly
Bertignac est un "killer" à la guitare, petite "surprise" avec 4 titres des insus pour le rappel afin d'annoncer la grande tournée de 2016
2 charity shows with Patti Smith, Thom Yorke, Flea and others... Patti was rocking as usual, Thom Yorke played a couple of new Radioheads songs which made the headlines in the whole world the day after, Flea as mad as you expect him to be
our last concert of the year, a legend from St Germain des pres
