Paris (F) @ Le Batofar

When I look at the others face this morning, I won't be surprised if I was told that one used these 2 days off in Paris to party !! Some drank a lot, others, like real rock stars, got their drumstick signed ... A bit of a messy evening to sum it all up.
We're expected around 2 pm at the Batofar on the shore of the Seine, it's funny they made a venue in a boat, there's not that much roll and at least the neighbours won't bother about the noise. We get to meet Seb and the Badbear gang there, we know them quite well now. There are no less than 7 bands playing tonight, only 2 are going to soundcheck, we're one of the two ... Antonin is doing pretty well and it doesn't sound too bad, which is rather cool if you consider the weird acoustics of the venue.
Just like everytime we play with lots of bands I can't see half of them. When I eventually came in the venue, I missed the 2 first bands and M SIXTEEN is playing already. We are sharing the backline, the moment between each band is short and it's our turn to board a ship. The gig is going on well, the new songs have settled down the setlist... I'd say we do our job, nothing more nothing less, like the audience, enthusiastic nothing more nothing less. We leave the stage on this draw game and let the PO BOX take our place.
Everyone spends some time with different friends, Till from GxP is there, Madfab is over there,too many to count them all... I go back into the venue to got musically beaten up by THIS IS A STAND OFF , and after by BIG D ... Let's put it that way, they are amazing !!! It's only 10:15 pm and the festival is over, it's time we go back home to get some strength under the Mediterranean sun ...
