I like that there are more shows on the west coast than the east. Highly unusual. ------------- The world of sound is certainly capable of infinite variety and, were our sense developed, of infinite extensions. -- George Santayana, "The Sense of Beauty" |

I am happy for all the people who will get to see Magma! We were lucky in 2010 when they played in DC at the French Embassy, and now it's the turn of other US cities to enjoy their presence. You won't be disappointed!  |

Hi,
Grabbed 2 for Portland!
Might get a few more if I get a reply from a few folks/friends! I'm in a giving mood!
SF/LA and NY will likely sell out quickly ... and I would jump on those tickeys quickly ... do not know about Boston and Chicago. Portland is a surprise, and maybe this is my fault that I made so much noise about this in 1999 and since ... but Seattle is the unknown one for me!
I'm trying to get as many friends to go as possible! But this area is horrendous about a lot of these foreign bands! Craig is being flighty, Ant doesn't know, David has no idea, Mac doesn't think he will go (he's into Hollingsworth not Magma!), and so forth ... so right now I have an extra ticket and will find a lady at the door for a date! ------------- Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about!

I have my ticket for the Boston show. I am very psyched for the chance to see such a legendary and truly progressive band. This show is a week after the Electric Wizard show, which I'll also be attending. I'm going to see Swans next Tuesday (17 Feb). I'll be seeing Saxon in May. What a busy winter and spring we have in 2015! |

| Magma just played L.A., and it was probably the purest form of prog to hit this town live in quite some time. I only wish I could have been bothered (I'm currently pondering the $35 cheap seats for a Robin Trower show in June). |

| I was at the LA show last night. Fantastic! The place was packed with what seemed like 20-somethings. It's got to be heartening to be in one's 60s and playing to young crowds in foreign countries. |

I am going to the San Francisco show tonight! Thanks for posting the setlists and setlist.fm stuff - reminded me to check what they're playing so I can get ready. I hope I get a Rïah Sahïltaahk! This will be my third Magma show - I was very fortunate to catch both their Osaka shows about ten years ago when K.A. was new.

Here’s a brief report on the San Francisco show at Slim’s, April 8, 2015: In a word, fantastique! And I mean that as both fantastic and fantasy. The setlist looks like it was the same as LA a few nights earlier: KÖHNTARKÖSZ MËKANÏK DESTRUKTÏW KOMMANDÖH ŠLAĞ TANZ ZOMBIES The audience was fairly diverse – people from their 20s/30s through 50s/60s. More women than I expected – maybe 30-40%. Mostly white, I saw one black guy and 3 or 4 asians including my wife and I. The most impressive thing to me about the audience was that there were very few taking pictures or video. I’ve been to other concerts, perhaps more pop or rock music, like La Roux or the Winery Dogs, where people use their cellphones to an annoying degree – some acts are even asking their audience to not take video but instead enjoy the music. I think MAGMA are so intense that either people forgot to use their cellphones, or most people just felt really involved in the music from the very start (myself included). I have to say that Philippe Bussonnet is one of my all-time favorite Magma bassists (next would be Bernard Paganotti) and he did not disappoint! Incredible sound, incredible playing. James Mac Gaw played a fantastic solo during KÖHNTARKÖSZ – those breakdowns when it’s just drums/bass/guitar are my favorites! Of course Stella Vander and Isabelle Feuillebois were great, I was also impressed with (relatively) new singer Hervé Aknin. I also finally understood Benoît Alzaiary’s contributions on vibraphone. Christian Vander looked a bit older (last saw him about ten years ago) but his playing hasn’t lost any of its fire. ŠLAĞ TANZ and ZOMBIES both made more sense live - ŠLAĞ TANZ felt like doom metal in 5/4, while the bass was more prominent on ZOMBIES. Philippe Bussonnet can really groove and burn at the same time as all the other parts interlock above and around.  |
