After the concert in Berlin, I met a lot of people from the electronic music world:
Jon from Elektron, who brought me a drum machine I ordered in Copenhagen last week
JMJ is now part of the Machinedrum club along with Air, Autechre, The Chemical Brothers and me. :mrgreen: :P

Let's see :D It definitely sounds like he's interested in composing between the concerts.

I'd like to know what drummachine it was he bought in Berlin for the tourbus.
Remember that riff in one of his blogs where Francis put his hands over his ears. We asked what it was. Could this be a new track he is working on?
I don't think. That was one of the Variations.

Jean Michel also mentioned that - "The Reichtag, a good venue for a concert.." So hopefully, he might do a concert in the near future there. 8) Go for it Jean Michel :!: :mrgreen:

I tell you what I'm enjoying about these blogs, all the tid-bits of info, personal and such that you rarely read about with people like Jarre. It's also nice to read what electronic equipment has caught his attention. Nice gesture about the Memotron for Dominic.

If it is a leather jacket, it looks a bit flimsy. :P But in a 8) sort of way. :mrgreen:

Hmm, it would be great but I doubt it would ever happen. I went to the Reichstag on a trip to Berlin last year. The security inside the Reichstag itself is crazy (metal detectors and security guards swarming the place) so anything outside would be very very very strict and if a concert did go ahead, it wouldn't be any fun at all.
