Magma to play Washington DC,USA (unconfirmed)

I was hoping you might be referring to the Triton concert in late June, as I thought you might not be aware that they play a concert on June 12 somewhere in the Parisian area. In this case you'll be missing both of them. 

I am probably not going to attend any concerts for the rest of this year because of financial difficulties. But looking at the bright side, I have already seen Magma three times during last April

Still 3000 miles away from me so no I don't think so.  You guys in Paris are probably closer than I am. 

I'm not going to go just to spite you all. :P

Bad news, "Seventh has removed this gig from their website".

Finally, we got the Sonic Circuits lineup for this year, I've been waiting for months! I missed Evan Parker and Ned Rothenberg last year, and although I saw him a couple months ago, it wasn't as good because the other players were mediocre. If they were in a studio for a few days, they probably could have recorded a good album, but there's a wonderful synergy you get with long time improvising associates that is impossible with people who met 20 minutes ago. But maybe they're still working out the kinks with some big names, since right now the majority of those bands are local, and I can't imagine they will only have Magma, Univers Zero, Merzbow, and Fennesz as the relatively big names.

I saw a message from Steve F from Wayside on the avant-progressive Yahoo list that might be of interest to you...

Note this one:

PLEDGE $100 OR MORE

LIMITED REWARD    39 of 40 remaining
Donor Level - For $100 you get to attend the closed Magma soundcheck/rehearsal at La Maison Francaise on September 18 in the early afternoon plus have your name listed in the festival program guide, 
and receive a festival t-shirt.

By the way, here's the full schedule for the festival. Somehow I find it funny that Merzbow is playing at the French Embassy. I'll probably go, he's playing with an acoustic guitarist so that's cool. I'll just bring earplugs! The Univers Zero/Miriodor show might be cool, except that I've never heard an album from either of them. And a bunch of people I've never heard of are playing at Fairfax, which is only 20 minutes away from me.

Although I have to say, I didn't see Nels Cline in DC because of volume concerns, so seeing Merzbow might be pretty stupid.

YOU AND HENRY ARE BANNED!

Haha, it will be funny to meet you and Micky. And other PA members (Jon might go to UZ).
