I was hoping you might be referring to the Triton concert in late June, as I thought you might not be aware that they play a concert on June 12 somewhere in the Parisian area. In this case you'll be missing both of them. Disapprove

I am probably not going to attend any concerts for the rest of this year because of financial difficulties. Cry But looking at the bright side, I have already seen Magma three times during last April Big smile

Still 3000 miles away from me so no I don't think so.  You guys in Paris are probably closer than I am. Wink

I counter your bad news with this good news:
http://dc-soniccircuits.org/index.php/2010-festival/

Magma is now playing on the 18th, and Univers Zéro on the 25th. Clap

Finally, we got the Sonic Circuits lineup for this year, I've been waiting for months! I missed Evan Parker and Ned Rothenberg last year, and although I saw him a couple months ago, it wasn't as good because the other players were mediocre. If they were in a studio for a few days, they probably could have recorded a good album, but there's a wonderful synergy you get with long time improvising associates that is impossible with people who met 20 minutes ago. But maybe they're still working out the kinks with some big names, since right now the majority of those bands are local, and I can't imagine they will only have Magma, Univers Zero, Merzbow, and Fennesz as the relatively big names.

Yeah, it says on the website that the lineup is still incomplete.  Richard Pinhas is a relatively big name as well. Wink

I'd love to see Merzbow live, that's got to be an interesting experience.

By the way, here's the full schedule for the festival. Somehow I find it funny that Merzbow is playing at the French Embassy. I'll probably go, he's playing with an acoustic guitarist so that's cool. I'll just bring earplugs! The Univers Zero/Miriodor show might be cool, except that I've never heard an album from either of them. And a bunch of people I've never heard of are playing at Fairfax, which is only 20 minutes away from me.

Why do all the awesome artists not come to west Michigan? LOL

And shame on you for not hearing a Univers Zero album. Tongue

Although I have to say, I didn't see Nels Cline in DC because of volume concerns, so seeing Merzbow might be pretty stupid.
 
I've heard some UZ, but it was ehhhhh so I never got around to an album. I feel like Art Zoyd does what they do better, and 20th century classical composers do it better still. :P

I do like the Art Zoyd album I've heard better than the UZ albums I've heard.

YOU AND HENRY ARE BANNED!
I'm going to go to that UZ + Miriodor show, and that includes buying plane tickets (for a rountrip in the same day) + the tickets for the show, and I'm sure it'll be worth it.
What's nice though, is that Magma will be preceded by The Muffins. That makes my decision harder.

We will definitely be there, both for Magma and UZ+Miriodor. The tickets should be put on sale very soon - the Sonic Circuits website mentioned early July, so it should be a matter of a few days yet.

Haha, it will be funny to meet you and Micky. And other PA members (Jon might go to UZ).
