Whitesnake to bring out their own wine

Whitesnake's wine out in july


English blues rockers WHITESNAKE turned L.A. Cock-Rock Posers are bringing out the best of juices with their own wine out called "Zinfandel 2010" on July 1st.

Of course it's a wine from California , it can be order directly from the winery HERE for 30 dollars a bottle.

Here's what Whitesnake singer David Coverdale is saying about it :
"It's a bodacious, cheeky little wine, filled to the brim with the spicy essence of sexy, slippery Snakeyness ... I recommend it to complement any & all grown up friskiness & hot tub jollies ...
Is this love? ... I believe it is ..."


Wine woman & song ...

Mia Doi Todd + Vanishing Twins @ Oliver Peel session #25, Paris june 13 2010

Mia Doi Todd + Vanishing Twins
@ Oliver Peel session #25
Very early session for this sunday as Mia Doi Todd, who already did an Oliver Peel session in April (click for review), is back in Paris but has to catch her train on time.
Lovely tiny voice over an acoustic guitar for this folk artist with south American influences.
She has a great record out & the video for the single was done by French director Michel Gondry.
Very different audience today with lots of new faces (Where are the regulars ?) including French-American actor Jean-Marc Barr & folk artist Erica Buettner, who will be playing this very same place next saturday.
JM Barr & friends, the cat is in good hands

Headlining is Jeanne Madic aka Vanishing Twins, she already played supporting probably the most talented folk artist ever to grace Oliver's : Simone White.
Jeanne is also a regular and we saw her playing the Scopitone club in Paris.
She's playing a very conceptual music on diatonic & chromatic accordion with projections on a "screen" then we had a proper song as an Encore, a personal version of " My Girl" also covered by Nirvana.

MUSE
@ Stade de France 2
Paris, June 12 2010
Second show for MUSE @ Stade de France and it's SOLD-OUT once again.
We have tix in the front pit, we get there on the right, too bad Matthew is on the other side.
The stage is massive with a beautiful architecture.
We didn't see any of the support bands Dewchka, White Lies & Kasabian.

MUSE gets on the stage @ 9:20PM to a massive reception from the audience, luckily the pit is far from being packed where we are standing and we have a clear view.
The sound is neat and Matthew's vocals perfect ( Too perfect ?!?)
Going to a MUSE concert is a bit like going to U2, RHCP or Supertramp, even without listening to any of their records you know most of the songs as they're played constantly on radios.

In fact the stage on which they're playing is prety small and the band isn't really moving a lot , even Matthew. He went only twice or maybe 3 times on the other side.
They stole the idea of the small stage moving forward to The Rolling Stones ( see Pic above) and the small elevated platform ( see Pic below) to AC/DC.

One of the coolest thing of the show was the "Spaceship" flying over the audience with the girl underneath.
You might like or not the music, yes it is really pompous but you have to admit that MUSE really put on a great stadium show.
Maybe they should, especially the bass player, move a bit more and use the space better on that fantastic stage.

Really good show !
