man that is one I'd love to go to. Perhaps when I retire as I hope Progday will have a long happy life. Too close together to manage with work as the company don't like seeing their prize employees take vacation

Hopefully, it will be the good Art Zoyd (with Zaboitzeff and Hourbette), not the Diallo one (which isn't interesting IMHO)

I have never seen Art Zoyd live so would be happy with any combination! I am listening to 'Le mariage...' at the moment so really don't mind the Dallio era. Bet they don't play 'Sangria'!

I've seen AZ twice in the last decade... Both times doing Experience de Vol, Metropolis and other stuff... Pretty tough stuff to endure really. Nothing to do with Le Jour or Génération or Odysée Zaboitzeff solo is still one of my fave Carmaux preformance that I'ce seen.

Shaping up for a great festival this year, I'm looking forward to all of those bands. I certainly looking forward to Present with new material & Liesbeth Lambrecht of Aranis added to the band.

So glad to see the marvelous Alec K Redfearn and the Eyesores on the lineup. They're one of the best bands currently active, bar none.

I saw Alec a couple of months ago in Boston and he told me they were playing. Excellent news for a terrific band, I'm pretty excited about all of the line up.

lucky you. I'd give a finger to see them around here again.
Any word of a new album from them Ian? I had hoped I haven't finally discovered them as they were exiting stage left. I'd like to see what they do with that bombshell of a guitarist. She is still with the group right?

Last time I talked to Alec he said they were working on new material so I believe they are in the early stages of a new album. Gillian is certainly still in the band from posts I've seen recently.

awesome! Thanks Ian. Hard to keep up with the group as it doesn't look like they've updated their website in a long time, at least last time I checked. which wasn't that long ago.

It's not a concert it's a festival. It's really 3 concerts all rolled into one. :)
I'm fortunate that my wife considers my two trips to Europe without her each year a sacrifice she's prepared to make for my sanity. She travels herself without me so we're happy to meet each others needs.

More news from Michel - this is going to be a trip.
R.I.O 2015. Important information !!! The concert of Art Zoyd will last 2 hours (in two parts) is the retrospective of 45 years of the band. Art Zoyd will consist of eight musicians whose Zaboitzeff Thierry and Jean-Pierre Soarez (the original training) and led by Gerard Hourbette (also a member of the 1st training). Daniel Denis (Univers Zero) is also part of this exceptional line up. A unique event.

I'm going to be travelling around Europe in September, and am extremely excited to attend this festival. I was wondering if anyone could tell me where the best place to stay during the festival was (on the grounds themselves, in neighboring towns etc) ?
Thanks in advance

I typically stay on the grounds at L'Auberge, it is very basic but it's right next to the venue & I like the convenience

Albi is a beautiful little medieval town where a lot of people stay & there is transport laid on every day to and from the festival
I've stayed at this hotel in Albi which is very nice and there will be other festival goers staying there
