This shows that the new mother, she knows! Romijn's style here shows her beautiful cuts. This style requires curly hair style with long edge down. These goals and more direct than the outward curl glare. Rebecca is the best part of the explosion this short wispy bangs hairstyle. It is part of a combination of feathers.

Aloe Blacc @ L'Album de la Semaine Canal+
Paris Sept 28 2010
Young soul man Aloe Blacc is playing famous Canal+ tv show to promote his new album "Good things".Paris Sept 28 2010
We already saw him at another Canal+ tv show La Musicale where he played 4 songs on the piano.
This time he's with a full band (drums, bass, keys, guitar and sax) all dressed in black.
Aloe is good looking , has a nice voice, is a good dancer and is dressed smartly, the music is also a cool cross between soul and reggae.
Everything is a bit too perfect, too rehearse, it's lacking a bit of "Soul".
Good show but it could have been better.

Blonde Redhead @ C'est Lenoir, Black Session #318
@ France Inter, Paris Sept 27 2010
Killing Joke was playing the hot & sweaty Bataclan, we chose to see a more relax band in a nice place , the studio 105 of the Maison de la Radio with its confortable sofas.@ France Inter, Paris Sept 27 2010
Best conditions to see a gig when you're sitting down in a confortable red sofa with 300 other lazy bastards like us.
We already saw Blonde Redhead a few years ago ( at the Bataclan) but I don't know that much about their career or discography.
They started with very ambiant songs and then they've played some more noisy songs à la Sonic Youth.
One drummer in the back , the girl on the left on vocals and guitar the boy on the right on vocals & guitar + keys.
They're helped by some pre-recorded bass ( that was way too loud) and keyboards.
Lots of smoke on the stage and lights from the back ( remember it's a radio show broadcasted live) to create the atmosphere that goes with the music.
Cool set (with 2 additional songs that were off the air) even though it's harder to appreciate that kind of music when you've never heard anything before.
Listen to Neil Young's " Le Noise"
Neil Young's " Le Noise" is out today in France but you can listen to it by clicking on the cover above. Enjoy !

Roger Hodgson @ Palais des Congres
Paris Sept 24 2010
Early start for Roger Hodgson , he's on stage at 8:20 PM for a good 50 min then there's a 20 min intermission and back on stage for another hour.
The Palais des Congres is packed but not sold-out : there are still a few seats left at the very back of the venue.
For this price you expect to see the artist with a full band unfortunately like last time at the Olympia theatre ( click for review & pics) Roger Hodgson is only playing with one musician on Keys/"Bass"/sax so we have stripped down versions of his songs.
[ check also our review with Pics from the show @ Fete de L'Humanité in front of more than 50 000 people]
Lots of talking between songs ( and in French for most part) which are played alternatively on electric piano, grand Piano or acoustic guitar.

American Folk singer Jo Krasevich is playing a showcase this afternoon @ Gibert Joseph store in Paris after opening for Ray Lamontagne yesterday night @ Café de la Danse.
I've heard a few of her songs quickly on her Myspace page and I liked what I've heard.
Always better to see artist in vivo.
She's promoting her first album "Mery go round" featuring Doug Pettitbone (Mark Knopfler, Tracy Chapman) on guitar and Daniel Lanois who just produced "Le Noise" for Neil Young.(click for Pics & more from his last show in Paris)
She's been compared to Chrissie Hynde for her voice but I personnaly think she's closer to Suzanne Vega ( we love her @ ROCKERPARIS... well Patrice does; click on link for more).
We were treated to a 5-6 songs set from her new album including one unrealeased song ending with a great acoustic version of Neil Young's " Like a hurricane".
We ( Oliver and I) had a nice chat with her afterwards well... she should be soon ( hope so) @ an Oliver Peel session.

Rachel McAdams is one starlet that knows how to make heads turn when they enter the room with her various hairstyles and creative which is a sport on the medium length blond hair, and this is a parameter in some cases, with pink light.

But the music really sucks, I mean when you hear a song on the radio that's ok but for a whole gig that's really too much.
Hard to believe, it's so lousy, it's ruining everything.
First and... last.
