That's one excellent report you have written there, Kanta, many many thanks, I was almost besides you at reading it, seeing what you were seeing, feeling what you were feeling

So you were more than astonished as I can notice, our international Kanta has finally met her looooooooooooove

I'm sure you can't wait any longer for Sunday

[littlesister]

Well, it looks like Fate really shone on you Kanta ! .... I am so happy for you, that you finally met Jean Michel ....

Sounds like you enjoyed the concert too ....

Here's looking forward to Sunday then ...... ... hope to see you around perhaps ?

[AnDrOiD]

I'm happy a dream came true for you, Kanta!

[Velodynamic]

Thank you so much guys for your extraordinary fascinating, exciting, dramatic and almost traumatic reports. The best I've read since... since... well, thank you.

Very, very nice pictures Kanta. The first ones really made me smile as "the great master" for a moment looks so poor and fragile in that big monk coat.



Review from BBC!

[Pat Gleeson]

Kanta, I'm absolutely delighted that you met the man himself, you lucky thing

I'm sure meeting JMJ has exceed all your expectations. Has your heart settled down yet ?

Great report too. It's great that so many of us are getting to see why we love this man's music so much, or in your case the man AND his music

[Vieon]

Glad to hear you had a nice time!

How much was all the merchandise? I'm planning to grab as much as possible, so I'd love to know roughly how much to take

[Equinoxe]

Can't remember the prices of everything...

T-Shirts £20
Mug £6
Keyring £4
Long sleeve Shirt £25.00
Programme £15
Cap £Can't remember(Probably about a tenner)
Poster £6 or 7
Polo Shirt(£25???)

there was also a Bag and a necklace,Lighter and a girls tee shirt and copies of the new remaster CD(£20)


Would hope that they don't add anymore onto the Prices for the RAH,but you never know with London events!!its a chance for them to cash in..

It is really astnoshing the way Oxygène concerts are evolving the good way since the end of the Marigny concerts.

He's having so much fun now (look at his head shaking) and the Oxygène V solo bares no comparaison, it's such a cray step into improv', which was not in Paris (I've seen three of his performances).

Forza Jean Michel !

[Kanta]

Thanks everyone for your lovely comments on my mini report. I am still on a high but what is the chance I will be in the same hotel in London tomorrow? Yes, I must be satisfied but I want more.

[Jon]

Just wondering, but, at the merchandise stall, was there a bargain bin full of T&T items?

sorry, couldn't resist

[Jakob BC]

Thanks to you and your sister Kanta. What a nice report It looks like you have had a great experience besides the concert itself.
Btw. that lighter looks cool. Is it a Zippo?

My video of Variation III :


Please read full more on the “About This Video”:
For my dear friends at Zoolook forum (www.zoolook.nl).

If the camera shakes or goes out of focus is because I am looking at the stage or shaking with the adrenalin.

Hope you enjoy.

All nice comments are welcome on YouTube. The not nice comments, you can PM me.

I have one other video from that fantastic night – Oxygene 13. Will try to upload .

@ Jakob: Yep, it is a Zippo. The one I bought does not work but I don't care. Will try to buy one from RAH tomorrow night. You are welcome and I will pass your thanks to my sister.
