Hello
My band had the opportunity to play in the Printemps de Bourges, a big festival here in France.
Of course, we did not play on the main stage ! But, it was big enough :
We played also in the "village", in a club configuration :
It's always nice to show his ASS in front of a lot of people ...

Seeing as I have been away for so long, here are some recent picture of me playing my EBMM guitars live:

Sorry for the crappy picture ...
The Temple Rock Tavern is a famous pub in the center of Paris (31 bis Rue des Lombards), I'm sure @DrKev already played there ! (before it was called the Guinness Tavern but there was a disagreement between Guinness and the owner of the pub, thus the name has changed).

@fbecir I remember the Guinness Tavern. I never played there. Back in "my day" they were only interested in amateur or beginner French bands that would play only one or two gigs per year and therefore guarantee a good crowd of friends and family, even if the music was not great. They wouldn't pay the band well and the beer was expensive. And that's a business decision I understand, but wasn't for me.

Now, it's exactly the contrary : the bands that play are pro bands that can play all night with cover songs (Programme – Temple Rock Tavern)
With my band, we play mainly original songs, thus we can only play the opening slot. But it's a nice place because it's often full of people, thus we can promote our band. By the way, we are playing again there on May 15th.
