hey

I'm in Paris from Monday 24 until Friday 28 of January 2005.
Can anyone suggest me a great, nice GIG over there...?
Would love to pick up some music...

hey lieve,
all okay?

maybe try this one: http://www.thesession.org/sessions/display.php/279

there's a (mail)adress at the bottom, send them a mail, maybe they'll come back here on the board to inform you (us) of anything they know of?

goodluck
mm

I was over playing in Paris in Nov 2003.

'The Quiet Man' has a good sessions...was a good one on the wednesday, run by Vincent Blin.....but with a high proportion of fiddles. If I remember rightly, the Saturday session had a better mix of instruments.

I particularly enjoyed the Thursday night session at a pub called 'The Blue Light' which was somewhere in Montparnasse. I played there till 4am!

hey paul

you mean 'the blue sky'? Martin of 'the quiet man' talked about it.

"You will just have missed the annual Brooks Academy weekend. This year with people like Emer Mayock, Oisin MacDiarmada, Christy Leahy, Sean Corcoran, etc... A couple of wild sessions on both Friday and Sunday night. The following week will be a little slow ..." quote Martin

anyway, I'll try to pop in somewhere and pick up some music, tunes...
thanks
