8 Days

Last night wasn't quite as great as the night before, but the weather was much more agreeable. It was kind of a rap/techno night, with one French rock group (Phoenix) who was pretty good! Then Lily Allen was fun, but after that it was just rap and some techno, which is ok in small quantities, but I can't spend a whole night listening to it. We had Ace Out up first (in place of Sebastien Tellier who for some reason was not there). Then Phoenix, Lily Allen, Kanye West, and the last group we stayed for was Yusek. The people I was with are not at alllll rap people, and during Kanye West's performance, François actually pulled out the newspaper and started reading it. lol xD! To make it even better, we were against the border of the walkway coming down from the stage, so there was no one pressed up against us and you could clearly see what he was doing. THEN! Kanye came singing downnn the walkway and fans were pushing at us, but he didn't even look up from the paper. ahhaha! It was great. Kanye has a really hot head, too. He's got the "I'm a bigshot" type ego, and it really annoyed me. First, he told the security that if he saw one camera or cell phone, he'd leave the stage. That didn't work at all, because everyone already had them and there are over 10,000 people there, so that is a little hard. Then, when he was walking down the middle, he had people around him pushing hands away and he didn't touch anyone's hand or even awknowlege the fact that there were people on both sides of him. He was also the only artist to not even say "Bonjour" to the crowd. I dunno him personally or anything, but he doesn't seem like the fan-loving kind of singer. Then after him, it turned all techno and everyone jumped around like a rave. It was kind of fun, but like I said, it's not something I could spend until 5AM listening to, so we left after an hour and I got home around 1.

Today is the Aérodrome Festival, then for the Main Square, we've got Placebo, Kaiser Chiefs, Bloc Party, Gossip, Ghinzu, Expatriate, and Crookers. I'll letcha know how all that goes tomorrow :)!


HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY YOU GUYS!
