In about a month on june 21st, it will be the 21st "fête de la musique".
As it is now a tradition over here, folks will walk the streets and go from
free concerts to free gigs by both amateurs and professional musicians/singers.
from Classic to Hard rock, from Jazz to Reggae, from techno to chanson française,
absolutey every genre of music will be played on that night.
As evey year I will join the crowd, in Paris, and enjoy the event with some friends.

But then I thought : Wouldn't it be nice to take this opportunity and ask fellow
MJ users living in the same area to come gather and enjoy the music all together ?

The plan would be : let's decide a meeting point (Dédé's Bar not far from the Eiffel Tower)
a meeting time (8 p.m.), have a couple of beer, discuss MJ topics and off-topics and
go walking downtown to listen to some good music ?

I know the "fête de la musique" is now spreading all over the world so I guess
MJ users meeting points could be arranged in other major cities.

What do you think ?

good idea,but i do not think what there is that much MJ users in Paris.If there is,they do not stop by this forum
No france this year for me.First i am no going every year and i have to much confusing fellings at this time to want to go

But i think that it will be very nice if users living in places where they have this event try to find out if they can meet
And,of cause,gossip after that ...........
Meet Carolus 8,he his bald-meet King,he his fat-meet zevele ,such an idiot

cmagic,
It's a great idea.  We'll contribute some t-shirts.

Maybe you could wear a hat with a web-cam attached, so we could see what is happening there.

Don't know about the web cam but I was thinking about the MJ T-Shirt
as a rallying sign for MJ users.

Zev, I'm dissapointed you can't make it to Paris this time
Any other MJ users near me ??

Jim,

I know you were looking at some ways to promote MJ.
Why don't you join the National Music Day Foundation as a supporter ?
I've just discovered this newly created foundation that was created to establish a nationally
recognized music day on june 21st in the U.S.A.
That way JRiver/MJ would be associated with an event that's getting bigger and bigger every year.

What I also feel is that the spirit of the Music Day fits in very well with the kind
of spirit among MJ users and fans.
Simply put : friendship, tolerance, respect, fun and music

just an idea

Allez en paix !

Hmmm... I would imagine that some of the video would have to be sensored before it gets posted!

Hmmm...  Maybe I can send you Moo the Cow to join the celebration.
