Sonic Youth @ Palais des Congres Paris Oct 25th 2009

SONIC YOUTH @ Palais des Congres
Paris Oct 25th 2009

Lyrics to one song
Strange place to see Sonic Youth , The Palais des Congres is a concert hall situated in a posh area with confortable red seats like in a movie theatre , 3500 capacity all seated.
The place is packed.
I won't tell you anything about the support band as they've probably play side 1 of Lou Reed 's "Music Machine".

As soon as Sonic Youth took the stage people get down to the front so everybody had to stand up.
Sitting down at a SY concert : NO FUCKING WAY !

They've played almost all the new record ( see setlist for details ) and a few oldies.
They don't talk that much with the audience but we're used to.

Some people complained that the sound wasn't that good in the back , vocals were not strong enough. Performance was neat the band wasn't as wild as it used to.

It took me some time to appreciate the new cd and by playing most of it tonight it gave ( me ) another dimension to those songs.

Kids wanna rock

Hope to see them soon in Paris ( at the "104" in January ? )
Of Course they're playing " L' Album de la Semaine" on tuesday ( oct 27th ) for a 30 min+ gig of new songs.
Another Great set ! YO !

Kasabian @ Bataclan Paris
Oct 23rd 2009
After seeing Kasabian yesterday night for the " One Shot Not" tv recording for Arte (performing 3 songs acoustic ).
We are back for another dose of Rock'n Roll this time @ The Sold-out Bataclan.
They will be playing the bigger Olympia next year on Feb 08th 2010.
Lots of English in the audience, they're quite popular across the channel , they've opened this summer for Oasis on their Stadium tour.
And like Oasis they have great hymns to sing to.
The singer is the main attraction with a bright spotlight on him for the whole set while the others are concentrated on their instruments.
When you have the right songs you don't need that much and Kasabian has some great songs that you can sing with your mates on a friday night after a couple of lagers.
Great show, see setlist below for details.
