Would been tremendous to have projected images lasers onto those classic architectural buildings.
I love this guy heartily giving thumbs up.
I know right. It's easy to take JMJ for granted.Dr_Jones wrote: Wed Jul 02, 2025 11:00 am That was a very fun show. Beforehand I thought it was a low budget/festival kind of gig (with one musician on stage), and even if it was it was very impressive visually. A proper light and sound show like we've seen him do before. Compared to his late 00s/early 10s tour, I think I prefer this one. It helps that there was firewoks and fire too (as if it wasn't hot enough!)
All in all I'm pretty impressed that with 77 years old he still manages to do a concert like this.
This was the first show where I saw people faint. We saw 4 people being carried away by first responders throughout the concert. Probably because of the extreme heat. Because my god, it was HOT.
To me they all sound too samey in pacing from Electronica tour onwards till now.Dr_Jones wrote: Wed Jul 02, 2025 11:00 am Musically it was an altered Versailles 400, Bratislava, La Rochelle set with some tracks added and removed. The biggest surprise was Arpeggiator which worked great. For a festival setlist: pretty fun. But for me it was kinda predictable, these arrangements of songs I've heard before. But this concert is not for me only so tough luck for me![]()

Agree completely. Just as in Brussels, those classical facades around the edges of the concert site are just waiting for a pair of blinking eyes to be projected on to them, or laser generated snakes, butterflies and more. Such a missed opportunity for a tour such as this with these locations not to take this hybrid approach - the modern Jarre stage, combined with the classic Jarre architectural integration.plate of chips wrote: Thu Jul 03, 2025 8:53 amWould been tremendous to have projected images lasers onto those classic architectural buildings.
