Motorhead & Izia @ Zénith

Paris Nov 4th 2009

First on stage is French Janis Joplin called Izia, it could have been a problem to her to open for Motorhead. She did really well with her classic rock band, she's giving it all on stage and get Lemmy's fans eating in her hand.

Then MOTORHEAD, yes Lemmy we know you're Motorhead and you're playing Rock 'n Roll !!!
Nice start with the "Iron Fist" then " Stay Clean".
It's a small Zénith tonight ( 2500 seats ) and it's almost full , quite an achievement as Motorhead played here last year ( Click for review Pics & Video ) and there is nothing to promote today.

Sorry no Pics from our photographer Patrice Guino as this lazy bastard prefered to relax in the stalls.

As usual with Motorhead they always put on a great show , they have so many great songs ( see video of "Going to Brazil" & " Killed by death" ).
Once again they've played a couple of songs from " Another Perfect Day" one of my fav record ending the set with "Overkill"
90 min sharp including encore , not the best show they've done but they are still kicking ass.

Here's " Another Perfect day " from last year :

Bad Lieutenant @ Fnac Montparnasse
Paris Nov 4th 2009 6:00 PM

Bad Lieutenant is playing the sold-out Olympia tonight opening for headliner Bat For Lashes ( Les Inrocks Fest ) but before that they're doing a showcase at the Fnac store at 5:30 Pm.
We were allowed in just before 6:00 as the band were rehearsing a long time just to play 3 songs, yes only 3 songs !!!
They've played 2 new songs and last one was from NEW Order ( Here on video ).

-Sorry I wrote down down Joy Division , I've been abused-

Then they did sign stuff to people , nothing was really organised as the band was in a hurry , Bernard Sumner signed records to whoever was next to him in a very relax atmosphere , no one was pushing and he took the time to speak to fans .
Cool !
it's time for some of us to go to the Olympia , I'm going to Motorhead @ Zénith.

Sweethead @ L' Album de la Semaine Paris Nov 3rd 2009

Sweethead @ L' Album de la Semaine Canal+
Paris Nov 3rd 2009

setlist and bass player Eddie" alcool & cigarettes" Nappi

Troy Van Leeuven, guitar player in Queens Of The Stone Age has a band Sweethead and they're playing tonight at Canal+ tv show " L' Album de la Semaine".

More and more rock bands are dressed in a very smart way , Sweethead is one of them , all dressed with black suits ,and white boots for Troy.
A Very sexy blonde with curly hair and nice red lips is on vocals dressed with a short black dress and black polish high heel shoes ( Christian Louboutin's ? ) looking like Madonna/Debby Harry.
Enough for the look let's talk about the music , it's a straight rock band with rocking Jack D vocals that reminded me of 80's indie English rock with a taste of American west coast rock.
It was the first time i was listening to the songs, unfortunately if most of the songs are good, you can't single out one or two.
To succeed in this tough world you need a good single and i couldn't find any catchy songs tonight in their 7 songs set.

See ya at
