In retrospect, the additional Chinese instruments in certain tracks are nice, but sadly it's one of the most blatant examples of the Aero-era playbackfests (the Monaco 2005 gig is the most blatant one). Not to mention that gigs like Gdansk and Morocco had a bit more variation in their track chocies.

But still, Zoolookologie was played for the first time since PLD (with a totally unfitting Theremin intro, though), Voyage a Pekin is the best version of that track (loving the extra instruments in that one) and there was even one live mistake - the random laser harp sound in the middle of Fishing Junks at Sunset. :]

But best of all, it got a pretty damn solid DVD release. A shame no past concert will ever get one.

Nice pic. I spotted an Aeroskull XS on the right of the desk.

Well, there is a project for at least the "La Défense" show to be released.
