Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds @ Casino de Paris, Dec 06 2011

Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds @ Casino de Paris, Dec 06 2011
& Electric Soft Parade
Electric Soft Parade
When we get in the support band was already on stage, part of the audience wanted them out, they took it with a laugh; too bad they've done a great set ending with a smashing ten minutes song. I've been told later that it was Electric Soft Parade, I remember now that i probably saw them many years ago opening for another band ( may be Oasis) at the Royal albert Hall.
They really deserve more success.
Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds

This gig has been sold-out almost immediately when it went on sale, I understand why, it's full of English singing No-el for the whole set.
The band has a powerful sound and a great white light show.
The whole gig is being recorded by French tv Canal+ for a future broadcast, they've already did it last time Oasis played at the tiny Bataclan theatre in Nov 2008.
We haven't heard the record yet but we heard the single and it is sounding very good.
so it's no surprise that Noel's band is sounding much better than Oasis, probably because he's singing all the songs.
Needless to tell you that we're not Oasis fans over here.
Noel is alternating between acoustic & electric guitar, he's not a fantastic guitar player but he has very good songs including the Oasis ones which are sounding ten times better when he's singing them.
A few heavy tunes and some acoustic moments including acoustic versions of "Wonderwall", "Supersonic"...
He had a few requests but he preferred to stick to the setlist, he also had a few funny chats with some English members of the audience.
SETLIST:
  1. (It's Good) To Be Free
  2. Mucky Fingers
  3. Everybody's on the Run
  4. Dream On
  5. If I Had a Gun...
  6. The Good Rebel
  7. The Death of You and Me

  17. (Stranded on ) the wrong beach
  18. -------Encore-------
  19. Little by Little
  20. The Importance of being idle
  21. don't look back in anger
Overall very good show even though he could do better than this.

Combien gagnent les artistes avec itunes ?

Interrogés par le "Nouvel Obs", Claire Giraudin, Responsable des études à la Sacem, et Bernard Miyet, Président du Directoire de la Sacem, répondent aux préoccupations actuelles concernant la rémunération des artistes selon les nouveaux modes de distribution de la musique.

La Sacem, notamment garante du respect et du reversement des droits d'auteurs, explique percevoir « entre 90 centimes et 1,10 euros, soit 9% du prix hors taxes sur un CD de quinze titres ».

Acheté sur la plateforme Apple. « Par titre vendu, la Sacem perçoit 7 centimes d'euros au total pour le ou les auteur(s), le ou les compositeur(s) et le ou les éditeur(s) », sachant qu'un morceau unique coûte généralement 99 centimes au consommateur. Quant à l'interprète, on estime qu'en moyenne 2 centimes lui reviennent.

Déja que les maisons de disques escroquaient les artistes à l'époque de la vente de cds et il y avait les intermédiaires à payer ( fabrication, livraison, disquaire...) maintenant c'est encore pire pour les artistes avec le téléchargement légal et il n'y a plus aucun intermédiaires.

Question: OU VA LE POGNON ? Pas dans la poche des artistes.

Quand je pense qu'on nous a fait passer Steve Jobs pour un saint, Pourris en enfer charogne !

Very cool 5-6 songs acoustic set from this English folk artist, too bad there wasn't a lot of people even though there was a few posters in the store promoting this showcase.

She's playing tomorrow ( Dec 07) with other bands @ Fleche d'Or in Paris

Imelda May @ L'album de la semaine, Paris St Denis le 05 Dec 2011

Imelda May @ L'Album de la Semaine, Paris Dec 05 2011

Cool private show in the Studio 104 of La Plaine St Denis for tv recording of Canal+ L'Album de la Semaine.
We already saw her opening this summer for Brain Setzer @ Grand Rex.
She hasn't changed... maybe the dress, she's wearing a yellow-black stripes dress and top that makes her look like a giant bee. Not the best looking outfit.
Anyway it's nice to hear some vintage 50's rock 'n roll with a good looking female singer with a slightly rock voice.
We were lucky to get an extra encore with a new song at the end that will be be on the next album ( probably called "Mayhem").
Very good set

Paul McCartney @ Bercy, Paris, Nov 30 2011

UPDATED DEC 02 with much more links to videos (only missing a couple of songs)

Paul McCartney @ Paris Bercy, Nov 30 2011

Nearly two years after his last show @ Paris Bercy, Paul McCartney is back in the french Capital. No new album to promote so we have a Best of setlist.
Even if the show is quite the same from the previous tours : same musicians and basically the same songs in the same order but we have a few very good surprises tonight with songs that are played for the first time ever in Paris , like "1985" "come and get it"...
It's only the beginning of the Tour (3rd show) but we had a special treat with "Michelle" & "San Francisco baby blues" that were performed for the first time on this tour.
Otherwise same show as usual : paul is alternating songs on bass, electric guitar, ukulele, piano...
He also had 3 people on stage to sign them autographs, it looks like those fans were picked up randomly from the first row in the audience but all of them had a special pass so they've payed (600 euros) to attend the soundcheck,that took place minutes before they opened the doors for the general audience.

2h55 min show
in our Top 10 for 2011
No need to tell you that we LOVE Paul McCartney & the Beatles on ROCKERPARIS, it's after attending such a great concert that we can see the gap between a Macca concert and Ringo Starr & his "All Starr" band.
Ringo was in Paris @ Palais des Sports this summer and his show was so ridiculous compare to Paul's.
Looking forward to see Macca back @ Bercy for another great show but with a rather different setlist next time.
