They played the whole of Quadrophenia ( but no encore so no oldies) Eddie Vedder guests on vocals ( as well as Tom Meighan from Kasabian ).

Here's a video with Eddie Vedder:( the first 20 seconds are the wrongway around...)

The Rodeo + Oh! Tiger Mountain @ Café de la Danse, Paris march 30th 2010

The Rodeo + Oh ! Tiger Mountain
@ Café de la Danse
Paris March 30th 2010

Back to the Café de la Danse in Bastille where we saw English youngsters and Rock'n Rollers Kitty Daisy & Lewis.
The show is starting very early with a French guy on the electric guitar on his own called Oh! Tiger Mountain , cool bluesy-Folk rock songs and dark voice unfortunately the poor guy is losing all credibility when trying to be funny between songs.

Le café de la danse is really packed when The Rodeo ( a cute french asian girl on vocals + a drummer and a guy on fiddle & keyboard) is taking the stage.
Once again the lightning is complete shit for the whole set.
I thought The rodeo was a pop band , not at all it's folk-americana.
They have cool songs but not one seems to be really catchy with a real hook.
Nice set above average.

Lonelady + Raymonde Howard @ C'est Lenoir, Black Session # 313, Paris March 29th 2010

Lonelady + Raymonde Howard
@ Black session #313, c'est Lenoir @ Maison de la Radio
Paris March 29th 2010

First is unannounced Raymonde Howard playing for 25 min+.
She's singing , playing guitar and making live home-made loops with the guitar, there is also a drummer.
Not very attractive, sounds like she's playing the same song over and over.
Don't ask the famous Oliver Peel sitting next to me , he started sleeping , Zzzzzzzzzzzz !

Then there is Lonelady, I've heard the album this week-end and i wasn't convinced at all but sometimes after seeing a band LIVE you changed your mind.
Not this time.
There's a keyboard player ( playing silly melodies with two fingers ) and a drummer (playing the same rythm over and over), The girl is on guitar and vocals.
She has a nice voice but she's not communicating at all with the audience as she's looking constantly at what she's doing on her guitar.
The music is minimalist but boring, soooo boring.
I wanted to hang myself !

setlist: Raymonde Howard & Lonelady

Revolver + Lilly Wood & the Prick @ Chorus Festival @ La Défense, March 29th 2010

Revolver + Lilly Wood & The Prick

@ Chorus Fest @ La Défense, March 29th 2010

Lilly Wood, Prick out of shot

ROCKERPARIS is back to The Chorus fest in La Défense , the business district just outside Paris.
Very unusual time for a rock concert, the first band is playing at noon.
Last time, we were here for Noah & the Whale + Fink ( click for review, Pics...)

French pop band Lilly Wood & the Prick is opening ; between pop, electro (not too much) and folk this young band is doing better and better ( dixit a couple of friends who saw them last year).
The girl on vocals has a nice voice and her english is perfect, most of their songs are pop with a touch of folk thrown in ( even disco rythm for one), a bit of electro is added in the background on a couple of others.
The songs are also more powerfull than it used to with some cool guitar licks.
Cool 10 songs set.

Then we have French Pop-Folk band Revolver heavily influenced by The Beatles.
They had a couple of hits last year in France for their first album.
We saw them in December 2009 @ a Trabendo sessions (click for review, Pics...)that wasn't recorded at the trabendo(?).

We've just found out who's the "Prick" ( from Lilly Wood) when Revolver started their set, that's the guy who's telling everybody that they cannot take Pics if not accredited.
It's a FREE festival for fuck's sake !!! get a life you cunt !

Anyway, in this beautiful round tent (like the Cabaret Sauvage) lots of young girls for Revolver playing songs from their album plus a new new one ( see setlist).
Cool set but maybe they should work on their English as the prononciation is very 'frenchy'.

Don't know why they've played " get around town" ( their hit) twice, luckily they've incorporated the song " Bo Diddley" in the middle of the latter to nice effects.

Tonight Black session with Lonelady.
see ya there
