Does anybody know the complete setlist of the concerts? The official album seems to be very re-recorded. I even doubt that some of the songs on the album were played during the concerts, like Arpegiator or Equinoxe 7.
Btw, what I heard about the Lyon Concert is that it had to be so short due to security reasons. Jarre speaks about that in the Making the Steamroller fly documentary.
Probably going onto another topic, but in respect of China - there is a question mark over Arpegiator, as to whether it was actually played at all in China. Equinoxe 7 - yes I think it was, the video shows JMJ playing the end of it at least (although the main melody part is accompanied by annoying visuals of people pinching and rubbing their noses). Most people now think that Souvenir Of China was never performed until Houston (and, inexplicably, about every concert since!).
Don't recall the Steamroller bit explaining why Lyon was so short, and I don't understand why security concerns would only result in an hour long event as opposed to say, 90 minutes!
