Gimme a little more time.

You have had 8 months now. Ding dong. You ran out of time.

I guess his favourite JMJ setlist is something like:

Kraftwerk performing their own tracks, with new tracks about how lame Rondats guitar playing is.

My Dream setlist is...

Waiting for Cousteau (Intro)
Industrial Revolution Overture
Oxygene 2 (Mosscow)
Oxygene 4 (La Defence)
Equinoxe 5 (Houston)
Equinoxe 7 (AERO)
Magnetic Fields 1 (Parts 1 & 3)
Magnetic Fields 2 (With Perrier Solo)
Souvenir of China
Ethnicolor (Full Version)
Zoolook
Digisequencer
Laser Harp
London Kid (With Hank Marvin)
September
Chronlogie 6 (EIC Version)
Rendez - Vous 2 (Original Version)
Rendez - Vous 4 (With Hank Marvin)

Encore...

Oxygene 7
Magnetic Fields 4 (China Version)
Bells
Equinoxe 8 (Full Version)

Musicians

Jean Michel Jarre - Synthesizers
Dominique Perrier - Synthesizers
Francis Rimbert- Additional Keyboards and Synthesizers
Jo Hammer - Electronic Drums
Garry Wallis - Percussion
Hank Marvin - Electric Guitar

I want to add Summer Presto with PR to that list.

I think it's a little hard to make such lists. In some way, I would like to see tracks like Equinoxe 5 and Magnetic Fields 4 to be played again, on the other hand CiC is special for having Magnetic Fields 4 in the tracklist. Concerts ad tracks seems more exclusive to me if they can be related to specific concerts. I know my opinion is different, but...

Gotta pull this one up again....

I obviously pondered this issue very often, as I always do with all my favourite artists, and there are some slight variations possible, but this would greatly sum it all up for me:

- Waiting for Cousteau (as pre-concert soundscape, as he already frequently used it in the past)

- Equinoxe 1
- Chronologie 1 (ideally full length, but MANDATORY at least the main part until approx. 6:30)
- Miss moon
- Oxygène 4
- Magnetic fields 3 + 4
- Computer weekend
- Industrial revolution overture & part 1
- Oxygène 9 fading into --->
- Ethnicolor (full version)
- Oxygène 8
- Chronologie 3 (but without human voice, just keyboards, guitar etc. as on the studio album)
- Souvenir of China
- Vintage
- London kid (bring that cool Hank Marvin dude on stage for this ANYHOW )
- Calypso 1
- Magnetic fields 1 (until about 7:30) fading into --->
- Oxygène 1 (with Theremin)
- Equinoxe 5, 6 & 7 (played in sequence as on the album)
- Rendez-vous 1 + 2 (with human choir)

(encore break)

- Les Granges Brulées
- Rendez-vous 4
- Chronologie 6 (with JMJ playing the accordion)
- Calypso 3

(encore break)

- Music for supermarkets part 1
- Chronologie 4
- Equinoxe 8
- The emigrant (ever since I first saw this incredibly beautiful performance from the Docklands concert video, this was the perfect closing piece for my imaginary JMJ setlist)



That'd be the setlist for my dream mega concert of JMJ, a very long one of course, but still only covering my absolute favourites.
