Band of Horses @ Black session, C'est Lenoir France Inter, Paris August 30; 10:00PM

Band of Horses @ C'est Lenoir, Black Session
for France Inter @ Maison de la Radio , Paris August 30 2010

Each time we saw Band of Horses these last few months it was in the best conditions possible.
There was L' album de la Semaine for Canal+ on then the day after a show @ Fleche d'Or in front of less than 500 people.
Last time was just a couple of days ago in daylight @ Rock en Seine festival in front of 20000 people. (click on links for Pics, setlist, review & video)
On all theses shows they've been playing new songs ... and finally the record is out today.
Not many changes in the setlist ( see Pic) same show, but what a show.
The more I see them the more I love them.
Love this pop rock with high voice and Aerian guitars....
Very good 60 min set.


Fly high !

The Black Angels @ L' Album de la Semaine Canal+, Paris August 30 2010 8:00 PM

The Black Angels have a new album out and once again they're promoting it @ famous Canal+ Tv show : L' Album de la Semaine.
Last time was in May 2008 ( if I remember well) just before a show @ Maroquinerie.
They came back this year @ Bataclan opening for Wolfmother in January 2010 ( click on link for Pics & video).
New album but same Psyche music heavily influenced by the 60's with heavy guitars.
8 songs set, they came back to redo more song(s) but we had to go as they started late and we couldn't miss Band of Horses @ C'est Lenoir.
Cool set even though some songs tend to sound the same.
sorry no Pics or setlist

Massive Attack & jello biafra @ Rock en Seine, August 28 2010

Contact: irockinparis((@))yahoo((dot))fr

Massive Attack
& Jello Biafra @ Rock en Seine
Parc de St Cloud August 28 2010

Massive Attack on the main stage, they're headlining tonight, it looks like the whole festival wanted to see them.
One of the most arrogant shit I've seen this year, after 3 songs we felt sick and we couldn't miss Jello Biafra.
Jello Biafra is headling the 3rd stage, the show had already started when we get there.
That is good shit and certainely not arrogant, straight heavy rock punk with a very entertaining Jello Biafra acting every sentence of his songs.
The guy's funny: makes me think of the way Johnny Rotten is acting on stage

Patrice , our photographer went to join a couple of his friends on stage and the lucky bastard was standing next to the guys from QOTSA who seemed to really enjoy the show.
Josh Homme ( from QOTSA) and Jello hugged eachother on the side of the stage before the encore.
Very good set, nice to end this day on a happy note.

And a video from the stage:

It fuckin' rocks

Jonsi, QOTSA & LCD Soundsystem @ Rock En Seine August 28 2010

Jonsi, QOTSA & LCD Soundsystem @ Rock en Seine
Parc de St Cloud, August 28 2010
Jonsi had trouble with his electronic equipment stuck in Portugal so he played an acoustic set ( on second stage) alone at the beginning then joined by his band on drums , guitar xylophone & bass.
He has the voice of an angel but it's a bit boring specially in a festival maybe we should him in a club to really appreciate.

We left after 5-6 songs to get a decent view for QOTSA

Things are really getting hot on the main stage, it's packed, the audience is very different no more teenager girls.
They've done a killer set, but down the front we're fighting for our lives, the pit is divided in two for the first 30 rows ( front to the back) which is the most stupid thing to do, people keep on pushing as they don't see there are crash barriers.
Many other festivals have a small pit not @ Rock en Seine , too bad.

Hard to appreciate a gig when you're crushed.

LCD Soundsystem on the second stage, some of the songs are interesting but others are really boring and very repetitive.
Not fan of electronic music so we left to the main stage to see Massive attack...
