Interview with Jean-Michel Jarre

[a boardman]

for some reason ticketmaster are not selling there tickets till 10.00.

[MitchT]

Regarding the tout situation... According to the notes on the Royal Albert Hall web site tickets aren't transferable, though I don't know what mechanism exists to enforce this rule.

[Parrot of Doom]

This would be why they sold out quickly:

[qube_TA]

Do people actually buy them at those inflated prices?

To pay all that I'd want him to perform Oxygene parts 1 - 13, Equinoxe & Zoolook. Then Vangelis would walk on and they'd play a whole new collaborative piece!

... and be able to take one of the synths home afterwards

I found my extremely amateurish piccies from the Docklands concert. Taken with some tiny little instant camera, I was only 16 and knew nothing about photography so be nice!

I managed to get a couple of Stalls seats from the Royal Alberts website yesterday. I thought they had all sold out ?

Anyway the mate I was going with might not be able to get now due to work commitments.....

I may end up ebaying 'em

I'm going to the Royal Albert Hall concert. I've got the stalls seats aswell

Here are a coulpe of my pics, (I was only 13 at the time).
I have a few more somewhere, these were taken from Prince Regent Lane, using a Pentax ME Super on a tripod

IIRC this was with the fixed 50mm lens.

Looking at the projections on the building, I think this was Revolutions.



And this one September

Oooooooo, fireworks!

Good job you got pictures - they're such a rarity.

Found it! Bill Bailey's JMJ piss-take:

It's between 01:50 and 02:35, plus watch to the end for the awesome 'Chaucer Pubbe Gagge'.

[qube_TA]

Is JMJ a fraud? I know that on his big shows it's all mimed and this'll be his first actual live show. But I think if you're worried about that at one of his mega outdoor shows then you've missed the point.

It's a joke. Sorry if I offended.

No I get the joke, it was just the debate on the YT link.

I like his music (not so much the newer stuff) but I'm no fanboy.

Ok, sorry. I didn't read that debate.

Chaucer Pubbe Gagge, though? Eh? Eh?

[qube_TA]

Some good feedback from this tour so far, really looking forward to it now.

Apparently he makes a disclaimer before he starts that the old kit has a habit of screwing up.

No pressure then!

If anyone here is going to the Manchester gig, see you there.

I'm going to it with Mrs SeanyD. Got tickets when it was first announced.

[MitchT]

A word of warning for anyone who's going to the Royal Albert Hall gig...

British Summer Time starts at 01:00 on Sunday 30 of March - Don't forget to change your watch or you'll turn-up for the gig one hour late!!
