First French Show in Bordeaux


Arrived from Paris before 4PM under a warm sun, soundcheck was OK, feels good to be with the crew again. Did a live interview from the stage with France 3 evening news, then got a phone call from the Maire, former Prime Minister Alain Juppé, a very nice man, apologising for missing the show but Bordeaux was playing Greece tonight, and he couldn't affort to miss it as the Maire of the city.

 

The arena is an ice-skating rink, pretty cold, but the concert went really well and the audience was really into it for one of the best shows so far.. A good omen for the french leg.

 

Later that day, Pierre fell in the street and is still in the hospital with strong pain in the right foot.. Fiona is with him, we hope that he will be able to follow us to Nantes tomorrow..

 

In the meantime we had dinner with Gerard Drouot, our french promoter to discuss Bercy. He and his team are very enthusiastic about the show tonight.

 

Good night..
