who was playing next door? and Eddie dancing :?

According to the lineup that night, Izia was playing on the second stage, and when PJ was done (where it said they were dancing to the other band) was The Rapture.

I'd dance to that, too! The Rapture are amazing!!

(sorry about my english)

This was my 7th PJ gig and probably one of my best.

We had luck with the weather. Like said in the review, the rain stopped 1 hour before the show (thank to Florence & the Machine? why not, the show was brilliant).

A special quote for Rearviewmirror, Even Flow & Alive. The solos were amazing.

Arms aloft, Breath & Lukin made the crowd crazy!

A 5 star show!

I also like to stay that the city of Arras is a wonderful place and the people are very kind.

That festival was a very good surprise!

Here are some pics (sorry about the quality):

The Poster


The Flag.

Just when you think you've been to the best PJ show..the next show you attend blows you mind....
Got to the rail at 1pm and the dam rail was fulled up..dam it I said....but waiting patiently...almost got into an old fashion girl hairpulling fight with a local girl that beat me to one open spot on the rail..but she left after watching the local bands...and I got her spot at the rail...just where Eddie was gonna be...so thank you my french friend. lol

The fans in front of Eddie were wild..packed like sardines and still able to dance and do our wild thing...a few times Eddie went to the front of the stage and sang directly to us..it's not my imagination...for real...really...

I've never seen Stone and Jeff laughing and smiling as much as that night..At the end Ed thanked Florence and the Machine...and then the turned his back to the crowd and did a dam cute little ass dance..then Jeff joined in and started to dance...I got it on tape...precious....will upload it after all this madness..

Near the end of the show Ed took a fall or maybe a slip...when I looked up on the screen you could see was unable to get up and then the screened blacked...but then Ed got up and all was good with the world again...Ed said a few words to the crowd and was back to his old jumping self...thank god.

Oh yeah they place Alive...and dam it I missed the biscep shot...someone has to get that shot...PLEASE

At the end Mike handed a bunch of Eddie picks to his security guy and he passed them out to the fans that were going wild..first at the rail....my one and only pick that I will ever receive. Thank you Mike.

Before the show..Mike was so cute...I caught him on the side of the stage...taking a peek at the crowd while Florence and the Machine were performing...I got that on video...it's only a few seconds...but cute...I'll upload that too.

Oh..there was this really really old lady..must have been 80 years old that was first at the rail and only a few people away from me....she lasted thru the down pour and freezing temps....only wearing a Levis bluejean jacket....I was worried about her..she didn't speak English...I got a shot of her...I don't know if she was able to last the whole show...but I didn't see her pulled out...so maybe she did..
