[Robi]

You should be proud Mrs K, that is a nice video.

I like the way Jarre goes up and then back down the scale at the start. Go JMJ, give that wasp some wellie, me son.

Thanks Kanta for posting this up

@ 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.

I just checked a Zippo... it appeare that the inside and outside are two separate parts, so you can always buy a standard zippo and put it into the Oxygene cover/casing. On the other hand the price for a standard Zippo is quite the same as the price of this event merchandise, so yes another sollutions is just to buy another On the other hand there is a neverending guarantee for Zippo products

Thanxs Jonno71 (Mr. Tung) for your lovely comment.

I am proud to announce my video of Oxygene 13 is available to watch :

[Jon]

You got some nice vids

[Kanta]

Yep, I sure do. Wanted to take some more but my arms hurt for holding the camera up too much. I pretty much knew which tracks I was gonna film before hand. These were the chosen ones.

Great photos! Thanks Kanta!

Btw, don't you have video about Oxygene 5 ?

[Kanta]

, I only recorded Variation III and Oxygene 13. Before I went to the concert, I practiced how long I could hold the camera up and even these two tracks were tiring my arms. If I had superwoman's hands/arms I would have done it. But I haven't.

Excellant photos

[Kanta]

Thanks Mr. Tung. Believe you me, it was a pleasure to take these photos. I look at them now and memories come flooding back. Will cherish them forever.

I hope doesn't have a "Mammoth" camera.



It's interesting how Jarre is like "attacking" his synths in the Variation III video.

Such...energy!

I also think his impros somehow sound more and more similar to the China concerts back in the early 80's (when he should have been closer to 30 yrs old. ).
Mainly I'm thinking of the exeptinal timing he had back then.
