COMMENTS

The Palais Omnisports is one of Paris's better venues, and perfect for Roger's Wall show - and with the first night selling out within minutes, it was inevitable that a second night would quickly be added. Within a couple of hours of the first night going on sale, this show was officially announced. Our thanks to Julien Richard for the ticket scan shown to the right.

General sale tickets went on sale September 17th, through www.FNACSpectacles.com. The public sale will also see a limited number of VIP packages made available for each show on the tour.

WARNING - SPOILERS AHEAD!

Do not read on if you don't want surprises to be spoilt, regarding what the band played, and what happened as the night unfolded!

Night forty-one of the tour, and the second of four nights at the grass-covered venue - albeit split with these two nights in May, and two nights at the end of June/start of July. Another great show, from initial comments we had, and a number of celebrities were spotted in the audience - more on that below.

If you went to this show in Paris, please let us know what you thought of the event, and if anything interesting or different happened if you've been to previous shows and can compare.

CONCERT REVIEW by BD CONTRIBUTOR, Angelo Misterioso, and PICTURES by Guino Patrice, both of RockerParis

Of course, same show. Guests in the audience included John McEnroe, Marianne Faithfull, Jean Michel Jarre & Sylvie Vartan.

It was really well worth seeing a second time as there are things I didn't notice on the first night.

The best place is not too close from the stage so that you can enjoy the projections on the wall and the quadrophonic sound. Once again GREAT show.

CONCERT REVIEW and PICTURES by BD CONTRIBUTOR, Jérôme Ravon

Here are some pictures of both nights which were a dream coming true for me. The Wall being built in front of us, an incredible Roger who's just in a wonderful shape. The projections looked so connected with the music played with a great feeling...and sound!!

Hopefully coming soon - we welcome all contributions!

YOUR HELP NEEDED! We want to cover Roger's concerts the best we can, to share the experience with everyone, especially those who won't be able to attend the shows.
