Dan San + Applause + Piano Club
@ Fleche d'Or, Paris May 27 2010
Nouvel an Belge

Piano Club

Belgian people are never doing things like everybody else as they are celebrating the New Year in May with celebrations for the whole week between the end of May and the beginning of june in different locations in Paris.
Tonight it's La Fleche d' Or with several rock bands from Belgium.

First on stage is retro-rock band Piano Club , if you're into Genesis or ELO this band is for you. And you know what ? They were good.

Applause

Then we're getting close to the 90's with Applause & a singer trying to impersonate Jeff Buckley. The music a cross between Jeff Buckley & Radiohead.
And you know what? They were also Good.

Dan San

Then we had Dan San, also from Belgium, It's more Folk-rock with acoustic guitars and a bit of violin thrown in.

Well well well, I'm surprised by the musicianship of each band, these guys have nothing to be ashame for compare to some English or American bands.
The only problem is that compare to French bands , they're way above us.
