Can't remember the exact order but here goes:


Oxygene 20 Intro

Coachella Opening

Automatic, Pt. 2

Oxygène 2

Circus

Web Spinner

Exit

Équinoxe 7

Conquistador

Oxygène 8

Zero Gravity

Zoolookologie

Glory

Oxygène 4

The Architect

Équinoxe 4

Chronologie 4

Oxygène 19

Rendez-Vous 4

Oxygène 17

The Time Machine


I'd not seen Zoolookologie and Chrono 4 live before so that was awesome, as was the whole event!

With regards to the feed cutting to the news, shit happens. Don't take it personally, it's not an act of state repression or deliberate insult, I guarantee it was just due to some dipshit pressing the wrong button or something. The concert also started 30 mins late. Hey, all of this stuff is new to them at the end of the day.

On Exit being censored, yeah that sucks but isn't suprising. Really, JMJ should've just left it out completely and no-one would notice. There's plenty of tracks in the current tour repetoire that he could've used instead....

The projections on the buildings are freaking cool. Almost like good old times. :D
No, nothing from Equinoxe Inifity sadly.

And yes the projections were freaking cool! There was also fireworks going off all around too.

Glad you liked it. Good you saw him, was it your first JMJ gig?

The use of the buildings was amazing and there was some great fireworks. It's as close to a "city in concert" concert as it ever was, I think.

I doubt there was any intention of censorship (except for the change in "Exit"); the other TV station (which was not Saudi 1) went on broadcasting.

Yes the projections were 500 meters square tall. The creators of the laser part stated that on Facebook.

The Green Concert Jean-Michel Jarre

I am happy today to have achieved my Green Concert with such a great success and welcome, here in Riyad, to accompany this period of transition within the Kingdom.
I am convinced as an artist that it is important to contribute to positive changes, helping the young generations of women and men to shape a better future. #thegreenconcert #together

Tracklist in order, per my recording

Oxygene 20 (intro)
Coachella Opening
Automatic pt. 2
Oxygene 2
Circus
Web Spinner
Exit (WITHOUT Snowden)
Equinoxe 7
Conquistador
(? - not available because of the news break, probably:
* Oxygene 8 + Zero Gravity
* Oxygene 19
* Zoolookologie
* Equinoxe 4)
Glory
Oxygene 4
Oxygene 17
Architect
Chronologie 4
Rendez-Vous 4
Stardust
Time Machine

I actually liked that Exit was without Snowden, for me that was the highlight of the concert. I'm not a big fan of Exit, and without Snowden's talking it's a bit more tolerable.
