Suisse, 2ème journée. Rappel, pour la 1ère journée, en résumé, beaucoup de route, des meuh meuh, une bonne ambiance, quelques photos, et pas assez d’heures de sommeil. Donc, 2ème jour, samedi. Levé tardif. La journée sera miam miam, plage, carioca et autre joyeusetés.
Friday. 6PM. working. Eww. A friend (and colleague) is coming. “So what’s the plan for tonite?” me “errrr… dunno.. kinda focused on the database thingy right now…” “Ok… well.. we tought we might go to the “apero urbains” later if y want to” me “yeah… well… yeah… who’s going, when”… and that was the beginning of a nice evening 
But what exactly are the “apero urbain”. it’s just a nice and cool idea, for the summer, a spot, never the same, to hang out and be able to have a drink…
That is precisely why, despit the short format of every gig in a Music festival like “les Ardentes”, I love being there. You have the possibility to discover some talents, singer, groups etc.. That you might never heard before if it wasn’t for this particular day. Today, after the awesome “Hollywood Porn Stars“, time for “The Bellrays” and “Nneka”, two artists that I now want to hear in my headphones.. Discovering talent every now and then is just so nice

”Les Ardentes” Music Festival in Liège, 2ème partie (En Français dans le texte). Here I was. Back in Liège, Belgium, for the “electro Rock Festival”. 2nd part, but actually 3rd day, (1st day with Camille amongst other is here) meaning Saturday, didn’t went on Friday, got to work, u know the drill, and the only artist that really made me wanted to come (M.I.A.) as cancelled. No Biggie. Today will be nice. Starting with Devotchka , will then come the Hollywood Porn Star.

So here he the 2nd part of the Bruksel Live ‘08 edition. As a reminder, the first one had Puggy and The Tellers in it. What’s up with this 2nd one? Long story short, a SD card will die, The Black Box Revelation will make our heads explode eventhough they are only 2 on stage, and Daan will not make any effect at all on me.

Et voici donc la 1ère soirée en pays Helvétique avec les amis d’un peu partout. Dingue quand même quand on y pense. Il a pas fallu grand chose. L’idée, le concept, le principe de se connaître, de s’apprécier, de se retrouver, de discuter, de former jour après jour un petit groupe qui s’entend de manière plus ou moins cohérente. Drôle. L’histoire de ma vie. 19 déménagements dans ma vie. Redevenir social, redevenir sociable, se reconstruire à chaque déménagement. Mais à priori j’y arrive plus ou moins à chaque fois. A voir la date de mon prochain week end dispo, je me dis que oui, je m’ennuie pas et que je suis quand même bien entouré.. Toujours est il que ce soir… Seesmeetup en Suisse, alors qu’il y a une majorité de non Suisse qui à fait le déplacement.. Allez comprendre A Wild Night.
Bruksellive ‘08 edition. A free music festival. A one day shot, a nice idea. Right next to one of the symbol of Belgium had being held this Bruksel live edition. What’s the story behind it? Don’t really know, except the front speakers speak Flamish, which makes me hard to laugh at the jokes they are saying ^^ . In the “theâtre de verdure”, everything here is set up for a nice evening/nite. With a majority of Belgium bands obviously, but doesn’t matter, I’m used to the quality pop/rock sound Belgium can create. The 1st part of the evening will be The Tellers and Puggy, already saw the last one for the “Fête de la Musique” a month ago.
Y’a des jours comme cela, il y a des idées comme cela. Le principe de se retrouver en Suisse, admettons. Le fait de venir des 4 coins de France et de Navarre (aucun lien avec le commissaire) alors qu’on se connait que depuis quelques mois passons. Mais l’idée de le faire en voiture, est juste excellente Différentes raisons à cela, pas nécessairement intéressantes maintenant que c’est passé, même si rien que pour la 3ème journée, ca valait le coup de partir comme cela. Nous voilà, à Paris, après mon arrivée le jeudi soir en train, prêt à partir sur le coup de 11/12h direction l’Helvétie. Ce n’était que le début d’un road trip de Meuh meuh, d’au revoir, du doubs traversé un nombre record de fois, de déviation, et de g33kitude absolue.

So it was the time for the French Singer “Camille”. What do I know about her? not much I have to say. For me, she’s from the generation of new “French singer who have lyrics that are nice, and are never, willingly or not, to have 2 or more instruments in their tracks”. Guess after the real nice demonstration I was going to experience that I was far away from that. Should have listen to one of my ex who was only talking about her a while ago. Camille is now at is, I think, 3rd record, and we can see than on stage, she do more than the job.

So here I am, clearly frustrated by the security guy at the entrance… ewww… C’mon… I love photo, not my fault… 
So after the awesome Flogging Molly Concert… Just went to ask “but well, ya know, it’s a small camera, and I see some in here that are 4 times the size…” the lady “well.. ok… if it’s not too big”…. The camera is not don’t worry. It’s the eye of the photographer behind it that’s needed ^^ (right now, u can just throw flowers at me, no biggy). So here I was, on the tracks where going to be Empyr, Brisa Roché and Yael Naïm…
