30.000 tix sold so far.

what's wrong with these southern frenchies?

How embarrassing...coupled with Frances lack of support for the U.S. military soldiers, this takes the cake.

Strange. France has always been a cornerstone of Stones' popularity. A cornerStone. Bigger than the Beatles there.

down here in the south it's all hiphop and soul shit.
(mainly in french)

i guess it doesn't help that there's a law in france
dictating that 40(?)pct of the music played on the radio
must be in french.

Here in South Africa, people are trying to pass a law that forces a certain percentage of broadcasts to be South African-made. Ghastly idea. The promotion of mediocrity.

Whatever the current state of its radio (and I like some hip-hop and soul), southern France is still a place I dream to see. Greece and Rome, troubadours and Templars....

most(not all) french music sucks big time

although i'm sure people say that about dutch music as well...

it's probably the language thing.

cheers
