yes.
Just to show that not all the events get playbacked
Blah Blah Cafe, the Jean-Michel Jarre forum
Disagree. The last time Metallica were going to play in India, the concert got cancelled -there were riots, those indians went nuts. No comments about China, with their ridiculous government except for maybe Hong Kong. Brazil and Japan would be good, but I'd still prefer him play in North America and make a huge show once again and I'm sure people would come if advertised properly.jeanbatman wrote:When jarre did Houston, America was topping the word. Now, it's asia. Jarre shouldn't care that much on north America and concentrate on china, india and maybe brazil. That's were the big audience should be right now.
Jarre has speachless music enabling him to conqueer new audiences, what's the point on performing in the us except making an hommage to his father, or pleasing some fans (not that much) The Houston point of comparaison is a deadly poison to anything he'll attempt.
My advice to jean Michel : move on to china!
Something like the Moogfest, very elitist ?Elf wrote:(...) The reason for not playing outside of Europe is that he simply can't sell tickets, unless it's a special one off. (...)
If it takes nothing more than girls playbacking and showing off their breasts while moving around like pole dancers (Spears, Gaga, Rihanna, Perry, Pussycat Dulls and all other cheesy stuff), for the people and press to praise their music, that's a shame, but that's just the way american "producers" consider the 90% audience is worthConsidering that 90% of touring acts like Rhianna, Britney Spears and so on have nothing but sequenced music and loads of backup singing on tape, I don't think a US audience would mind at all.
The less they sell the music, the more undressed the girls will get.Not to be too off-topic, but Gaga does play live. The difference here is that Gaga has got musical talent, most of the other girls mentioned in your post have not.jeanbatman wrote:If it takes nothing more than girls playbacking and showing off their breasts while moving around like pole dancers (Spears, Gaga, Rihanna, Perry, Pussycat Dulls and all other cheesy stuff), for the people and press to praise their music, that's a shame, but that's just the way american "producers" consider the 90% audience is worth
Some people used to speculate that JMJ didn't compose/produce his own songs by saying he used "shadow writers" like Geiss, Rimbert etc. While the majority of his albums do in fact use "artistic collaborators" (as seen in the liner notes) the idea that he was just a puppet for someone else's musical creations is just crazy.thhedk wrote:Haha, never heard that rumor before, but it is weird that JMJ has SO many difficulties playing even shortly after he made the songsFinaero wrote:Seconded. 'Nice' to see the "Michel Geiss recorded Oxygene and Equinoxe" sentiment starting to reintroduce itself after so many years, though.Robi wrote:Those are video clips.
