I'm good. You picked a good place to stop for now, so you can continue tomorrow night if you'd like.

Actually Jon I'll live. The details are nice but I assume the concert was literally full of win. Like no more win could be added.

Im curious how the meeting of the band was!

And Heart you Kevin

OK, I guess I'll tell more now. 

We got to the French Embassy and got inside.  They had some merch on sale, though only for the earlier four bands (and Magma shirts), so I picked up a couple Muffins albums and a Magma shirt.  Then, the music started.  First up was a one-man act, Pilesar.  He made tracks with a keyboard and a sampler and a loop pedal and his voice.  It was interesting and fun to see live, not sure if I'd want an album though.

Next, Vector Trio came on.  I was interested in them, as I liked the tracks on their myspace.  The performance, though, was a lot more freeform than I remembered, so it was basically well-constructed noise...still enjoyable, but I would have liked a bit more structure.

Next up was Hume, who were a pretty fun band.  They started off with two guitarists, drummer, cellist, and vibes player, which was the lineup for the first several tracks.  The cellist and vibes player were guests, though, so the last track was the basic trio.  Interesting again, and I was going to pick up their CD but I forgot to. LOL

Finally, the one we were waiting for from the earlier show:  The Muffins!  Needless to say, they were quite good.  They're definitely used to playing together, used to playing fun material, and used to being quite awesome, funny guys in general. 

OH YEAH!  Between Vector Trio and Hume's sets, I was outside talking with Micky, when I saw this guy and got this picture taken:

Indeed it is. 

Want some more details?  OK. 

First, something I forgot to mention about this portion of the day; for the first ~10 minutes of the Muffins' set, I stood and watched it with none other than Philippe Bussonnet!  I talked with him a bit before they started, but I don't think he speaks much English and I know I don't speak much French, so communication was difficult.  Nonetheless...epic. 

OK, now back to where I left off last time:
After the Muffins set, we had some time off to relax and (for those people who were hungry) eat some food before the Magma concert.  I wasn't hungry, so I just relaxed.  Then Steve from Wayside showed up with all of the Magma merch, and I got really happy and my wallet got really sad.  See the Recent Purchases thread for my cumulative purchases for the day.

Another sidetrack:  I talked a lot with Dan Britton, the mind behind bands such as Birds and Buildings, Cerebus Effect, and Deleuge Grandeur;  he is, as should probably be expected, another truly awesome guy.  He's really down to earth, knows his stuff, and shares my enthusiasm for both Magma and the Cardiacs.  We chatted on and off throughout the day once Raff and Micky introduced us.  He didn't have any music with him, though. Disapprove
