   I wonder if I'm not going to suffer the eight-hour long train trip: it sounds less complicated.

	I don't see why you should suffer. Some good music, good reading, some sleeping and great views shoud do it

	Ten days to go (even less)

	Hello ! It's a great pleasure for me to be back to RIO festival far from Japan again! In 2007, It was a fantastic experience. I'm very looking forward for those days in there and all the concerts especially Charles Hayward and Univers Zero. See you in Albi and Carmaux soon ! ...But I haven't done any preration for long journey yet.

	what about meeting saturday morning in the breakfast room of the auberge. I will put some distinctive sign on the table let's say a Gentle Giant CD...I know Victor (77) & Hugues (Sean Trane) so for the others who want to join look out for GG on the breakfast table! PS I will put optionally on the table Potemkine's Nicolas II ( the band came from the region, from Toulouse) Edited by Alucard - September 15 2009 at 12:52
	Tadpoles keep screaming in my ear "Hey there! Rotter's Club! Explain the meaning of this song and share it"

	Just a quick message to all those of you who are heading to Carmaux - have a great time, I'll be there in spirit (if not in fact). I've seen Charles Hayward and Yoshida Tatsuya this year, and I'll be seeing Magma next month in London, but I really regret missing the Present/UZ concerts, especially as I've never seen UZ live. And especially to Martin & Hugues - eat, drink and be merry, it would have been great to meet up with you guys again but there's always next time - hopefully I'll be seeing you again in the near future.

	Well for the second time in a row, it looks like I'll have to pass up on this.... first time was for health reasons this time is for family reason I've seen Guapo 5 times, Magma 7 times, UZ a dozen times, Present also... Aranis seven times I was really looking forward to seeing them another time, but I really wanted to see Yolk and The Muffins for a first time. Heyward and the Japanese group were just bonus I was hoping of talking Joris Vanvinkenroye (of Aranis) to play his contrabass solo between groups in order to promote his first solo album called Basta!

	If anyone gets near a computer with an Internet connexion, could anyone tell about the events? I'm not sure to be patient enough to wait until the CD or DVD of each band.

	If I may..... This comes from the hotel owner at Cap'Découverte If had to cancel due to important family business/problems last friday, the couple that checked in to my room instead was more or less welcome to do so, but under their names, instead of usurping the name of the person who had reserved it for me...... BUT THE ROOM WAS NOT PREPAID..... So when they (the couple) left without paying (probably assuming it was)..... is leaving one of the organizer/host with a hole in his accounting This will probably not hurt the host too much, but it's certainly not a good thing that this unfortunate happening falls upon him, and might dampen his (the hotel/facility owner) spirits in future events of the genre.... If by any chance someonne (the couple) recognizes their "politically incorrectnerss", could he gat in contact with the owner???? I'm not saying it was someone on this board, butb it would be nice if the (I will write the same post in Prog Archives)
