Yeah, and not just 4 minutes of it
In Gdansk we were already expecting the show to start any minute and then they played a tiny snippet of WFC... which was kinda lame

Okay, just a very rough translation via Google Translate:
After a long preparation, where we discussed at length the track listing, rehearsals have started in a new piece of studio JMJ, totally renovated, among others, by Patrick Pelamourgues.
Long days in exciting prospect because it is our charge.A date set synthes is in place and wait to "the heavy Between very heavy ....
The modular will be present and our old companions (Eminent, ARP, MOOG, Synthex ELKA etc ...) have been reviewed by Patrick and the incredible PROFESSOR Dierstein. I had met there for many years, where I had problems with my first organ in rented furniture FORTIN MUSIC PARIS know it worked for WYD!
The interior design as usual by JMJ is exceptional and totally different from OXYGENE TOUR ....
Each track from the original titles was studied very carefully and dispatched between the four of us (JM / DOMINIQUE / Claude / France) ...
The first concern is to memorize all the scores that are similar in weight, the volumes of the LEGEND OF THE CENTURIES VICTOR HUGO ... .. Fortunately, our years on the concert scenes BOSS we were able to work most part of musical parts!
Claude, our musical director noircit brought hundreds of music with the rigor that is its charm!
Dominica, still imperturbable gins the chorus with ease!
JMJ 2000 ideas per minute, while I relive every day all these days and nights we were preparing, Houston, La Défense, Docklands know that years later I am again at my keyboard to rediscover and interpret these music pages that are part of my life ....
The clock is ticking I waited in the studio ... A bientôt!
Thanxs a lot Francis and Michael for sharing this wonderful info.

They started rehearsing just now?

If that is the case, Francis must be speaking like the rehearsing is only one step.

Maybe, they are very confident
and so they should be after the Oxygene Tour 1 and 2.
, I need to prepare myself.
