Garbage @ Zénith, Paris Nov 22 2012

 Garbage @ Zénith, Paris Nov 22 2012
see ya there tonight

Gargabe is back in Paris just a few months after playing a sold-out show at the Olympia theatre (on May 16), tonight is a different story, it's a small zénith (3000 capacity) and it's far from being full.
We have two support bands: first is SUCCESS, we didn't see them as we were still outside, then Pony Hoax that was ok. After a long intermission GARBAGE is finally playing on the very simple stage, a huge backdrop , two keyboards on each side.
Last time we saw Garbage was @ L'Album de la semaine for Canal+ on May 15 promoting the latest album and the day after for a signing session @ Fnac store. Can't say that the new songs sound very good as there are too many electro-effects on them, it's ruining everything, the reviews have been very bad for the new album.
Of course the band is playing all the hits but there's something missing, I don't know maybe I'm not interested anymore in that kind of music. All my friends are telling me that they've done a great show but I'm not convinced at all.
The thing that I'm wondering: how do they get such a big sound with just two guitars ?
Good show just above average






SETLIST:
  1. Control
  2. I Think I'm Paranoid
  3. Shut Your Mouth
  4. Why Do You Love Me
  5. Hammering in My Head
  6. Queer
  7. Stupid Girl
  8. Automatic Systematic Habit

  19. When i grow up
  20. The world is not enough
  21. Only happy when it rains-------------
  22. "Duke song"

Status Quo @ Casino de Paris, Nov 20 2012

Status Quo @ Casino de Paris, Nov 20 2012


Jesus, can't remember the last time we saw STATUS QUO  live in Paris ? Probably 15 years ago even though they're playing in the French capital almost every year.
The Casino de Paris is quite full and all seated but thanks to the french Fan Club and some English , everyone is standing up and getting closer to the stage so we can boogie all night long...
It's 9:00pm sharp when the band is getting on stage, nice and bright light-show, perfect for take pictures, the sound is loud and very clear and where we are, down the front facing Rick, we can hear LOTS of guitars. It's obvious when you're listening to the video below.
As usual with the Quo , the guys are in fine form with always a smile on their faces to the dedicated fans that are probably following them everywhere on these European Tour. The guys in the first rows are all wearing the t-shirt made specially for this gig in Paris.
With The Quo nothing has changed, still the same 3 chords simple rock 'n Roll, that's what we want from them them and that's what they are giving us: no bullshit.
Just simple basic ol' Boogie Rock'n Roll !

See setlist below for details, we had a drum solo in the middle and like all drum solo it is pretty useless, thankfully they kept it short. They also performed a "medley" of some of their songs.
They probably played some of the new stuff but I'm not very familiar (in fact not at all) with the latest records they've done.
Fortunately they were lots of classics
Cool 90 min set !
