Another busy day for ROCKERPARIS & friends, we went to check the Tour de France arriving in Paris, as they were riding nearby our home sweet home. It looks like they were late so we waited for an hour and we saw them less than 20 seconds. I don't understand how can people travel long distance and wait a whole day for that.
We wanted to go to the nearby Cinématheque for the Stanley Kubrick exhibition that is closing at the end of the month, we left as we didn't have the courage to wait in line for an hour to get tickets, we'll go later this week.

We did a bit of sightseeing like tourists and then headed to the Hotel de Ville for the last day of the Festival Fnac Live. Several bands were playing everyday from July 21 to 24. Free fest
Today is the last day.
We arrived just in time for French singer Florent Marchet, enjoyable chanson française.
We missed new sensation Selah Sue ( we saw her @ Album de la Semaine Canal+ tv show in May ) who was playing earlier as we were having diner at a nearby restaurant.


Much more people are here today mostly for former lead singer of french rock band Rita Mitsuko: Catherine Ringer who has released a solo album a few months ago.
We also saw her @ Canal+ tv show L' Album de la Semaine in May.

Cool set between pop-electro-chanson Française & rock.
Nice ending with Rita Mitsuko's "c'est comme ça " here on video.

Amy Winehouse, death of a star

It's better to remember Amy Winehouse with her show @ Zénith in Paris on Oct 20 2007 than her last performance in Belgrade this year:


We were lucky @ Rockerparis to attend her very first concert in Paris @ L'Album de la Semaine tv show in front of less than 200 people for Canal+ on Jan 29 2007.
At the time she was unknown, 6 months later she was a superstar.
She also performed a private short set @ Bobino club in Paris on June 28 2007.

Another day, another free gig @ Hotel de Ville, we had a quick look as we had a busy day with the "marathon Photo".
First artist on stage was French pop singer Luce : well not our cup of tea so we left for a nearby restaurant and came back for former AS Dragon lead singer Natacha Le Jeune's new band Oh La La ( any relation with The Faces ?!?).
Maybe not as good as As Dragon but enjoyable. Nice cover of a Run DMC song.
We couldn't stay for the other bands : Brigitte & Mlle K, sorry !
