Chances of having The Stones playing a "secret" show @ Trianon on Feb 10th... well... I give it 10% ( Note:  only MY personal opinion)
It could be in another club (on the same day ???), maybe the Trabendo one more time (?)

The good news is:
Jackie Lombard , who's the CEO of the French Promoter came to pay a visit to the Stones at the hotel.
So I guess that it's looking good for a future concert @  Stade de France for the summer.
HELL YEAHHH !!!

Ennio Morricone @ Bercy, Paris Feb 04 2014

 Ennio Morricone @ Bercy, Paris Feb 04 2014
So...Legendary Ennio Morricone is in town, it's been a while.
Last time he played in Paris was @ Palais des Congrès 11 years ago, backstage he was given the medal of the city of Paris.
Tonight he's playing a much bigger hall, we're @ the 13000 capacity (all seated) arena : Bercy and believe or not: it's sold-out with prices ranging from 45 euros (just a few) to 150 euros.

We have very nice seats in the stalls on the right but as Ennio is playing (read : conducting) facing the orchestra, we went to sit down behind the stage on the right side on what is supposed to be the worst seats which are in fact the best tonight as we're facing Ennio Morricone.
First there is a long introduction, an interview with The Master that is shown on the screens on each side of the stage , subtitled in French as The Master only speaks italian.
The short movie is quite long ( 5 min+) so the audience is starting booing but when Ennio is walking up the stairs to the stage , he's welcomed like a proper Rock Star but it doesn't seem to distract him at all.
I've never seen so many people on a stage: 86 piece orchestra and 75 voice choir.
We're getting treated to a Best of  with many famous soundtracks:

-Ist part of the concert with "Le clan des Siciliens", and the most famous parts of Sergio Leone's Western movies & "Once upon the time in America" plus a few others.
It's powerful

There is a 20 minute intermission
-Then second part with "Le professionnel"," Cinema Paradiso" and "La Bataille D'Alger" "The Mission" and many others

There is an encore with another version of The Good The Bad The Ugly's "Ecstacy of Gold" performed for the second time tonight to rousing applause.
Quite Amazing.

Rolling Stones' Rehearsals in Paris Day 1, Feb 03 2014
14 on Fire
Keith & Ronnie in Paris (thanks to Laurent D)

Finally the Stones are in Paris for the rehearsals of the "14 on Fire" Tour.
We were expecting them to start last week, everything was ready in the studio for a few days now just waiting for them to turn up.
The band arrived on saturday, Charlie and Ronnie from London on Eurostar, Keith on sunday from the US of A, from reports: he was on the same plane as Tenniswoman Serena Williams.
Chuck Leavell and Darryl Jones are here too, no one else...
Of course Mick Jagger is here , he was the last one to get into the studio,as usual, and waved to fans on his way in and out (from what I've been told).

Paris is freezing now.
The band after a few months' rest is very tight, they only messed up "Doom & Gloom" with several false starts and finally nailed it. They played it again for security.
The band is on fine spirit.
