Me, also, heavily.

I guess they are starting to rehears tracks, do you also think?

I think they will reveal 1-2 titles before the tour to drawn the attention up.

Without sounding like an ass, I don't think so, but "Oxygene" and "Equinoxe" will probably be mentioned.

Seems ticket sales is low for Debrecen. Do you think the management will ever be as good as to sell all the tickets out? Altough still 3 months...
I would not comment Live Nation, if you don't mind...

I will turn my psychic powers on and gaze into my crystal ball.

What does it say, Jon? Are you any good at crystal ball gazing?

I would bet that they are rehearsing. I wish I was a fly on the wall.

It's the same here. I haven't seen much promotion for the ticketsale. There are still some months left, but if they did good enough, the tickets would have been ripped away faster, just as it happened with the Oxygene Tour.
My brother said that a famous Danish radio program called 'P3' talk about it though. I haven't heard it myself, but it soundsl ike they mention it from time to time, and even talk about it.

All these up to Jarre too.
With recent low album sales (unknown albums) he has difficult thing...

Depeche Mode concert is just almost sold-out, with decent albums, with decent concept for concerts, with decent management. It is easy for them.

Even though sometimes he does play them 100% like the album versions... back =P sorry!

No, no, no. The intro's at PLD and EiC were magnificent, but in later concerts they just turned into a few minutes of wishywashy melodyless can't quite think what to play sequences. Except Equinoxe 4 at the TDOTS.

I second that, PLD and EIC were spot on musically Am really hoping for a return to that kind of thing. The intros to Oxy 4, Equi 4 & 5, MF2, Zoolookologie (ie Ethnicolor) and RV2 at la Defense and Chrono 1, 2 and 4 in particular for EIC have never been bettered.

By the way, if his Greatest Hits setlist doesn't have anything more recent than Chronologie, I wouldn't mind at all! For me the PLD setlist with Chrono 4 and maybe Equi 7 and Industrial Revolutions (instead of Calypso 3 perhaps) would be absolutely perfect!

If a ceremony would be held for managements being ran all over the world, to award them in all categories, from being the best and the worst.
Only one could be awarded for the 1st, the worst : Aero Production! Dear Fiona and Louis will take the award over.

Just been told that someone was surprised how Louis was without outlook and creativity. Maybe better than Antoine? But seems JMJ is not bothered by this, he is satisfied with 2nd-level "managers".

But Fiona is like a sister to JMJ. So he must be happy with the way things are going.

I could assist Fiona, if she wanted me to.

When you say Fiona, I say Shrek.

But JMJ's Fiona is not married to Shrek.

Wow, like this paragraph praising JMJ:
Get ready for a concert experience like no other, with electronic melodies and innovative instrument use. This is definitely the concert for those who want an exciting and stimulating musical experience, from the musicians who are considered to be one of the ultimate in his field.
