Marianne Faithfull @ Théatre de l'Odéon, Paris Feb 15 2012
Marianne Faithfull @ Théatre de l'Odéon, Paris Feb 15 2012
Not a concert tonight but some reading @ Théatre de l'Odéon not far from St Germain des Pres and just in front of Jardin du Luxembourg.
There wasn't a lot of advertising so it wasn't full, it was packed downstairs but lots of empty seats on the sides at the balcony.
As you can see on the pics, it's one of the most beautiful theatre in Paris.
Lady Marianne read us Shakespeare's sonnets (around 20) with Vincent Segal on cello.
She was reading for 2-3 min with the translation on a huge screen in the back and then Vincent Segal played his cello for a couple of minutes.
It went on like this for 80 min.
It was interesting, Marianne's reading was faultless and her voice was perfect.
The cello was sounding amazing, it's one of my favorite Classical instruments .
I would have prefered that they left the translation on the screen while Vincent was playing cello:
If you were reading the text, you didn't focus on Marianne's reading and if you were only listening to her without reading the text, you couldn't understand the meaning of it, sorry we're French.
Cool gig

Nice acoustic show from new pop sensation Django Django.
It started very late and they only played 3 songs ( video of first one below).
They sounded like Syd Barrett's Pink Floyd, very psyche but I Guess when they're playing electric it's more "electro"

Nick Lowe @ New Morning, Paris Feb 12 2012
Not a lot of people on this sunday night at this famous Parisian Jazz club New Morning.
Once again you've missed one hell of a show.
We're not really familiar with his repertoire, we've just been told that we had to go as he's a great composer and...we were not disappointed.
It was a very relaxed and laid back concert with lots a great songs sounding between Buddy Holly, Johnny Cash & JJ Cale.
Conditions were perfect with tables and seats in front of the stage, a bit as if he was playing in our living room.
He started the show on his own on the acoustic guitar for a couple of songs, his band joined in for the rest of the gig.
Nice arrangements on each songs with subtle keyboards/piano and guitar with stand up bass for a warm sound. Vocals were superb.
Very classy gig.
