5/17/06 Elysee Monmartre. Paris, France Show Time: 9:00pm Ages: All ages Supported By: Holy Soul, Sleepers Tickets: €26 from fnacspectacles.com Venue Website: elyseemontmartre.com
I saw Arcade Fire last May at this venue. Nice place - not the nicest area of Paris. Well it's ok. I am VERY tempted to jump on the old Eurostar and go to this. Paris in the Spring!! Lovely!!! Cheap hotel. Nice wine, pommes frites! mmmm ;D WHO'S WITH ME!! COME ON LETS STORM THE BASTILLE!!!!!

Ha! I'm sure H8kurdt you didn't mean to offend an entire nation there I like France!! I like the wine, the cheese, the tree lined streets, the..... did I say wine already? But seriously I was shocked when I went to Paris recently at how friendly everyone was. Ok, if you just try to speak a little French (which one should I think) it gets you a long way. I like the small cafés that open late. I like the way they are trying to kinda stop the insiduous spread of globalisation. I like the food. The pace of life is just that little bit slower than in the UK. Thats a positive thing!! Do we actually have any French folk on this board? Mudhoney don't have the greatest history in France (as that Q Grunge thing pays testament too). The venue they are playing is pretty large... Getting there from London is about the same time as getting to Nottingham from London (more or less . The Daily Telegraph are doing a 2 for 1 deal on Eurostar at the moment. It's very tempting!! If only I could persuade my wife!!!

Not all of them just some of them. I try the best I can to speak french but still they act like cunts. When someone comes here (England) on a holiday and ask me for some help i'd try my best to accomodate them not just shun them.

I think that Mudhoney in Amsterdam would be a better option. Keep France to the French.
