As for the Sonar footage, I'm glad he went for a new updated stage, otherwise looks pretty great. Oh yeah, dat Stardust...

Needs more RV4

I think there will change a lot during this tour. The concept will be the same but the tracks will be slightly different every concert. And also the indoor part in October/ November will be bigger and more tracks like "Rendez-Vous 2", "Rendez-Vous 4" and may be others too I think. This is at to moment to much "Oxygene" and "Equinoxe" beside the 2 new albums.

Greetings,

Great setlist! I like seeing the new songs! I freaked out at Zero Gravity. Fuck yeah that light show!

I hope someone has audio record it

Is it me or did i just watch a playback of every song from electronica.

I don't see any live music.

Just watched the videos.

Damnit, my fears of a return to the mimefest days are confirmed

Gutted to be honest.

Actually I found the mix of Exit, equinoxe 4 to Conquistator pretty nice

Inspiring visuals and nice set list...too bad most of it was pure playback
Hopefully JMJ will gain more confidence as the tour progresses.

You are wrong

Having visited Sonar, I must say it was a great concert. Some highlights:
- Impressive stage design, very futuristic
- Added impact with cascades of lasers on some tracks
- Nice build-up at the opening
- A new track!
- The inclusion of great tracks “Brick England” and “Immortals”
- A nearly instrumental version of “Glory”

I’ve got nothing against James Blake, but I must say he was somewhat boring to watch after this. Also the Jarre gig was one of the few at this stage – if not the only one - with appropriate bass mix.

Also played live ox4
