Would laugh my pants off if he'd had a backup in his rig just in case and that one lets him down as well

What I would give to hear "Hello, this is Jean Michel. . . . . Sorry about the malfunctioning MemoryMoog again. . . . . But does anyone in the audience have a 61 key, polyphonic analog synth they could borrow me?"

Maybe some of us should turn up with one, just incase

I think it is the thrill of it all. He likes to take certain risks.

Well sometimes there is a fan or two who want to get an autograph on a synthesizer they brought

You've given me an idea. I could take my Stylophone for JMJ to sign.

Sure you can

But he might ask me to play it. Nice idea but something is gonna go wrong.

We will see.

Would Jarre still have his Electro-Harmonix Mini-Synthesizer, and take it into the audience

?

That would be so ubercool!

A white suit would be also very retro!

Wooh, D50! Hopefully the IDREV2 on that teaser video is a major hint

Also, he might as well use some other synths for certain parts of certain songs so ... anyhow, 20 days left 'til the Finn gig!

That looks amazing. Most of it wasn't shown on the pics of Dominique, Claude and Francis, so it could look like Jarre will have an expanded amount of gear for this tour

The Mellotron wasn't mentioned. Neither was the AX-Synth (which Im 99% sure I saw in one of those pics from Francis' blog). Well with such a list, it's also easy to forget something. Let's see what the final setup will appear as

I have read that the loop station is used with the guitar or bass, so it is nice to see, what is the song, where it is going to be used

He was asked about why no modern Analog synths like Andromeda and he said he like MemoryMOOG more
