  • have really gone to pot compared to the previous tours.

    You used to be able to get reliable and detailed summaries the same or next day, but now it's as if most people can't be arsed.

    Sad...

  • It mentions Morrissey amongst the crowd-pleasers. Can French speakers discern more?

    Grande ferveur populaire pour les Eurockéennes de Belfort

    Vue du public lors d'un concert de Daft Punk aux Eurockéennes de Belfort, le 1er juillet 2006
    Jean-Philippe Ksiazek(AFP)
    Les 18e Eurockéennes de Belfort, qui se tiennent à guichets fermés pour la première fois de leur histoire, qui attendent plus de 96.000 personnes sur trois jours, suscitent la ferveur d'un public conquis par l'oecuménisme musical du festival.

    Retranchés depuis vendredi dans un immense champ constellé de tentes et de caravanes, plus de 30.000 spectateurs investissent au quotidien les rives du lac de Malsaucy.

    Après avoir goûté aux expérimentations futuristes de Daft Punk et à la pop soignée des Strokes, ils s'apprêtaient à célébrer samedi le retour en grâce de Depeche Mode et de Morrissey, avant de chavirer dimanche au son de Muse et de Mogwaï.

    Déambulant entre les odeurs de kebab mais aussi de fondues et de merguez, ces milliers de jeunes sont également venus communier autour de la fine fleur de la scène française: Camille, en goguette expérimentale samedi avec une quinzaine de Japonais; Seb Martel, le guitariste de M., et ses Chroniques; et Dominique A et ses mélopées intimistes qui viendront clôturer le bal dimanche.

    Pour se mouvoir entre les cinq scènes, le festivalier doit faire preuve d'adresse pour éviter ses congénères qui goûtent aux joies du farniente à même le sol, et doit se passer de son téléphone portable pour retrouver sa tribu: l'afflux de spectateurs est tel que le réseau est en permanence saturé. "Du jamais vu", selon les organisateurs.

    Ces petits tracas n'ont pas suffi à réfréner l'engouement du public, visiblement sous le charme d'une programmation rock qui flirte également du côté du reggae ou de la techno.
    Absent de la scène depuis 1998, Daft Punk a créé la première sensation de cette édition 2006. Coiffés d'un casque chromé et moulés dans leur combinaison de cuir, les deux androïdes de la "french electro" ont pris place dans une pyramide high-tech au milieu d'un déluge de lumière baignant la presqu'île d'une nappe futuriste.

    A coups d'infra-basses sismiques, le duo a réexploré ses hymnes "One More Time" et "Around The World", emmenant son public jusqu'aux lueurs du petit matin.

    Quelques heures plus tôt, Dionysos s'était taillé un franc succès en étrennant devant quelques 13.000 spectateurs une des créations "Made In Eurocks" qui font le sel du festival. La tellurique formation française avait revisité son répertoire accompagné par un orchestre symphonique au grand complet, surmontant courageusement un couac technique: une coupure de son d'une quinzaine de minutes.
    Nombreux sur le site, les jeunes coiffés de dreadlocks ont, eux, pu se rassasier en écoutant Damian Marley exhumer quelques-uns des hymnes reggae composés par son géniteur, Bob: "Exodus", "War", "Could You Be Love"...

    Autre fils héritier, Seun Kuti, le fils de Fela, avait lui fait revivre l'afro-beat inventé par son père il y a 30 ans: un mariage de rythmes funk et syncopes africaines célébré par une armada de cuivre et de textes militants."

Asking if Claude Brasseur was always alive, and was disapointed of rott rank in Freeeeeee.......eee as he said; thank you for this short but very strong show, the rott songs are made for concert, only one regret no "bigmouth" , it would have been gigantic for this outside show;sorry for my poor english;

  • well it was a good show BUT the audience SUCKED.. there were maybe 5 people there for morrissey, including julia, and that was about it.. i exagerate a little but it was seriously pathetic... everyone else was waiting for depeche mode and let morrissey know it at almost every break between songs! i am shocked he even finished the set...

    not too much stage talk.. mentioned how long the drive was from cologne to belfort, asked julia if she drove too...

    when he changed into a blue shirt which got a loud reaction from the audience and he asked if they liked it, they said yes, he thanked them with "merci" and mentioned that again at the end of the show when he said something like "thanks for the shirt, merci, ciao, enjoy depeche" at some point he wished france luck (they had not won yet)...

    he also said that he ALMOST had a hit single in france then played killed me..

    introduced the band as "the pigsty 5" after all the names were done he called himself "the singer"

    said that ringleader has not done well in france, surveyed the audience and said, "i wonder why"

    said belfort was much hotter than expected...

    the moat was HUGE and ridiculous... nobody was dancing or singing, no pogo, nothing.. no pushing, nothing... loads of arm room against the rail..

    i did get the set list, 2 copies... one from gary and one from a moz-tour guy who said "you were the only person who sang every song, here..."

    and thanks to the help of some french depeche Mode fans i also have a piece of shirt!!!! my first moz relic so i am so happy... and it smells like him!! and it is blue... sorry that i am writing like english is my 8th language and i had never finished all the courses but i am JUST back from Blefort, i have had no sleep, i have been on trains all day, been speaking french all day and i am brain dead...

    the set list:

    IRISH
    HSIN?
    B'APPY
    KILLED
    GANGLUD
    YOUNGEST
    HERO
    FUTURE
    PIGSTY
    COMA
    1ST UV
    SNOG
    FAR-OFF
    BAWN
    ART
    PANIQUE

    MORRISSEY:BELFORT:FRANCE:01-07-06

    as far as france is concerned i spopke with some french morrissey fans... they said, as i am always told, he is soooooo underground here he is virtually unknown... he does better in paris, but it is more of an international crowd.. it was Chloë's first Morrissey show and she LOVED it...

    i met another french guy and his gf who are fans... he said he is 26 and never heard of morrissey until 6 months ago, but has since bought everything...

    personally, i think moz is very lyric driven and for people who dont understand the lyrics it could pose a problem, but that's just my very simple opinion coming from a very tired me...

    detroit guy was cool (bubbah-not his real name) and pissed off some german girls who would shout "just can't get enough" (a depeche mode song) inbetween moz tracks...

    at one point some one yelled depeche and moz said "yes, i know" or something to that effect.. and there was a starnge group who only shouted manchester for half the show..

    morrissey was wearing a black shirt with black trousers then changed to the blue shirt which he tossed to the audience (he had it knotted at the bottom)...

    the boys were in chocolate button downs with light silvery ties...

    they all seemed less than enthusiastic, but who could blame them...

  • For a festival crowd he should limit new songs to two and just pummel them with stuff they know- everyday is like sunday, suedehead, november spawned a monster, there is a light, etc. There is no way he is going to make an impression on a sweltering, ornery audience by delving into challenging new stuff. HSIN and Panic are perfect choices. The setlists he's been doing are fine for his own concerts, but for festivals he needs to get into the Oasis mindset and gorge them with the hits.
