The Dandy Warhols at Le Bataclan

My last show of the year was The Dandy Warhols at Le Bataclan. Okay, I’m a huge fan of The Dandy since a long time… But this concert was great, an excellent set list… No set list with the Dandy but a kind of masterplan and as usual they sing what we want. … Earth to The Dandy Warhols is really good live. Put the whole line up on the same line in front of the scene is an excellent idea.

Of course, we drank with them a little bit (!). A great news, 8 shows in France (Paris, Bordeaux, Lyon,…) are previous around march.

A few pics on my FLickr.

Ting Tings

I like the Ting Tings LP but you don’t feel the energy of this band on the record. I saw them on stage at Le festival Les Inrocks. It’s excellent a lot of energy, a crazy crowd. I spent an excellent night with them. Highlight of the show : We Walk, That’s not my name, Great DJ, Shut up…. If you want to see some pics of the event you can go on my flickr.

A good mention to the Black Kids, with an interesting set.

Oasis are Back

I saw Oasis at Le Bataclan (paris). I saw them a long time ago in the same venue… i’m not so young ! Oasis still rocks but i definitely love their old stuff whatever if i like the new single The shock of the lightening. They played : Rock’n'roll star, Supersonic, Champagne supernova, Morning Glory, Falling Down, I’m the Walrus, Wonderwall, Don’t look back…. and many more.

As usual, no lightshows, Liam in front of you without emotions but always the crowd singing along. The concert will on TV (Canal +) around december.

Blip : Music + Twitter

Back here. I spend more time on twitter where you can follow me here.

I would like to share with you one of my fave stuff actually is Blip.

You know i like music and Blip is really cool. Blip is a mix of a lot of thing.

Listen music. Send a twitter with a link of the song. Have a network with people who share your musical taste.

Listen to playlist of people on Blip. The best thing is to go on their website and try it !

New Facebook

Facebook is everywhere. Sometimes, I think it’s boring and not really interested but after all I go back to Facebook to see what’s happen around me !

A lot of people are addict… So do you think they will enjoy the brand new Facebook homepage ?

Motorokr E8 Dance version !

An interesting website and cool videos with David Elsewhere. This guy is crazy… How he can do it ?

I won’t buy this phone but I should say it’s a new kind of product demo.

I don’t know if a lot of people will understand the demo but it’s a kind of arty stuff.

Smirnoff Experience Paris after all

July 2nd … day of the Smirnoff Experience in Paris. A great event with a great Band (Duran Duran) and an excellent Mark Ronson. Highlights of the show : Duran Duran played Tel Aviv, a perfect version of A View to a Kill and the version Song 2/Tricked out.

It was amazing because a lot of people from different countries and a really few french people ! I know it’s difficult (impossible) in France to do some communication around acohol. But to be honest the event was really well organized. Cool people like Eva Mendes. An open bar until 1.AM, a good sound, people from Smirnoff and the staff very cool.

After the show they bring all of us in car from La Cigale to the Ozu. In my car, everybody sing along Rio and Wild Boys. Just imagine a car with 50 people who sing along Duran Duran in Paris !

Some pics on my Flickr.

Spot the bull… Winston

Last year we discovered the great Derek for the Spot the Bull campaign. Now it’s time for Winston to take the place of his dad. Streaming, play with friends in order to win tickets for the great Glastonbury festival. One more time Orange gave the key of the project to Poke London.

The line-up for this festival is as always really good.
