Mylene Farmer in Concert

We spent last weekend in Paris, France. Nothing too much exciting. We went to Paris to go see Mylene Farmer at the Palais Omnisport de Bercy. We bought the tickets for last Saturday’s concert in December of 2004.

Mylene Farmer is one of my favorite artists. Her concerts are renowned for their extravagance: beautiful costumes, lot’s of dancers, excellent lightshow and many surprises. She decided to promote her latest album Avant que l’Ombre… with just 13 shows in Paris. She did not want to play concerts anywhere else.

I was expecting it to be big, but I have never seen a stage show like Saturday’s concert! I was just blown away: 2 stages, big video screens, lights everywhere, surround sound effects. It was awesome. Ticket prices were quite high, but it was worth it every penny.

The only drawback of the night: the hostesses that we guiding us to our seats asked us for a little token of appreciation. We paid 132 EUR per ticket and those girls actually had the nerve to ask for a tip!
