Daft question as it's probably the same setlist as before but does anyone know the setlist for last Saturday yet? |

The concert in Paris at the Rock en Seine was on Sunday 29/aug and the set list was: Re-make/Re-model Out of the Blue While My heart Is Still Beating Ladytron A Song For Europe My Only Love Dreamhome Virginia Plain Love Is the Drug Editions Of You Do The Strand Let's Stick Together Jealous Guy A reduced list because of the other artistes schedule. A good performance, well received. MB |

I was at the concert and although well received, it was despite the sound set up, which was very poor. Far too much bass, Bryan hardly audible, and lack of sharpness in audibility of individual members. The same view was expressed by other English fans around me. |

I agree with you for the PA system, but I’d like to add some comments. Roxy Music were competiting with Arcade Fire, the main headline act. The latter band were scheduled at the great scene at 10 PM, the former at the Cascade scene at 8 h 45 PM– that means you had to make a choice. And RM clearly chose to rival with Arcade Fire delivering a great performance which combined punch and self derision. The concert was supposed to be short (50’) BUT Roxy decided (on their own initiative) to do an “encore”, performing two extra numbers (Let's stick together & Jealous Guy). Last, but by no means the least: Roxy didn’t tour in France since ten years and this could have been at their disavantage. However, their performance was warmly welcome by the audience (merci!) as well as by the critics. The critics are unanimous: “Amazing!” reported “Le Monde’s columnist in “Bright final fireworks”. As for Télérama’s reviewer, he wrote : “We were afraid for the third major concert which was the most awaited and, as a result, the most incertain. We were fulled with joy! We never dreamed Roxy Music re-formed would be so surprising!” in “We were there!” (my translation)– NB: Le Monde and Télérama are considered the French newspaper and the cultural weekly of record respectively. |
