Images from the tv show La Musicale:

 

 

Interesting note:

-Jamie designed the whole stage based on a boat called The HMS, adding some marine details. It's pretty awesome:

 

 

Man, France always gets the cool stuff.

 

PD: Why i am the only one noting Damon's hand o the third picture. Maybe it's because he always put his hand in some unpleasent locations xD.

Damon is feeling up Bobby Womack. :blank:

Excellent pictures all of you and reviews!

YouTube - Gorillaz - To Binge - Cambridge Junction 23/03/2010[/url] of Gorillaz at Cambridge and me shouting ''Parklife'' at Damon. I was so glad that he took the joke so well :P

 

Damon: And now I'm going to sing a ballad this evening...

Me: PARKLIFE

Damon: ...Not... Exactly.. :D

 

:D

Wow, well done haha!

Once this tour, and the rest on the last tour :D I met Damon too (also Mick, Paul and whatever the other guitarist is called :P) and they're all so nice!

 

You're so lucky to saw them on the Demon days tour.

With Perrine we met shortly Damon and Jamie but Paul and Mick just wave at us.

 

WAHHH OK so I watched the first video when you posted and just now got to watch the other two.

 

19-2000 - That hug that Damon sneaked up and gave Rosie was adorable :lol: HAHAHAH I love Rosie, she is so sweet!

 

OMH - Oh myyy beautiful :heart: All that light on Damon during this song, really made his blonde hair bright, he looked like an angel singing that lol!

:awesome:

Just finished watching these videos from their recent Radio 1 Live Lounge session and frankly, i'm in awe. I absolutely LOVE this acoustic version of Doncamatic (that guy Daley's voice is amazing :stunned:) and Crystalised is simply hypnotic. :stunned: And On Melancholy Hill is just beautiful. :wacky: Actually, if anyone could rip decent mp3s of these i'd be eternally grateful.

Wow, thanks for posting... these are all so amazing! Daley has such a great voice, it's really strange but I love it!

 

Also those pictures of the gig in France look incredible :\

Here's my review!

Posting it in two parts cause it's really long hehe

 

Hey guys! As you may already know, I got extremely spoilt, I still can’t believe it :}

So I started queuing a bit before 1pm, it so was freaking cold that I almost lost my toes, but I was the first in my queue! I waited for Louise who showed up after 2pm, and we spent the afternoon talking and making plans for the show. She knew the exact spot we had to go for, and omg she was right!

A bit before the doors opened, I recognized the security guard at our gate from a Coldplay gig, so I talked to him a bit, and I think that’s why he opened our gate before the others haha. I was the first getting in so I was walking quietly, but then I saw crazy girls running behind me and screaming so I had no choice but to run too xD The venue was totally empty so we got the best place, just under Damon’s mic and in front of a big amp. We were already too damn excited lol

 

So a guy from De la Soul started playing music to entertain the crowd before Little Dragon, and we see Damon dancing like a weirdo on the side(no no I didn’t imitate him :P), was so funny! He doesn’t seem to like Michael Jackson though cause he totally stopped dancing^^ We also saw some people playing ping pong backstage, but couldn’t tell if it was him.

 

Little Dragon walked on stage and played like 5 songs. Their set was great and Yukimi was really graceful, I do understand why Damon loves her so much! She kept smiling and saying “merci!” haha

 

Then De la Soul came to play, and omg these guys are too funny, they’re not the kind of music I’m used to listen, but did a great job at warming up the venue, everyone was bouncing and shouting whatever they asked us to say (I’m sure most people didn’t understand a word of what they were saying tho ^^). At some point Maseo showed his huge belly and starting rubbing him, everyone cracked up xD

 

Now, was time for the main course as Maseo from de La Soul said!

The show starts with a video of Murdoc in the dressing room, wow Jamie’s drawings look so good on such a big screen! That’s a shame cause I didn’t look at the screen that much, there was too much going on on stage :P

 

Orchestral Intro, with an absolutely stunning and beautiful video of Plastic Beach

Welcome to the World of the Plastic Beach

I don’t really remember this song as I was too busy looking at everyone coming on stage, I guess they were almost 30, that’s crazy! I couldn’t even look at Damon’s face when he was looking at Snoop Dogg on the screen :P But he was dancing, and was REALLY into it lol!

Last Living Souls

19/2000

Stylo

On Melancholy Hill

I will never forget this, Damon singing with an acoustic guitar just in front of us, oh what a voice <3 And when I looked at Smoggy he was singing too, was absolutely too cute!

Rhinestone Eyes

I was already crazy about this song, but now it’s even worse. So at some point, Damon jumped on the big amp in front of us while singing, and I raised my arm without thinking. Then he took my hand and kept singing while looking at me in the eyes for like 5 seconds omgomgomgomg!!! My sister told me it was long indeed, so it wasn’t just me lol. I swear, I was like paralyzed and now I keep seeing his blue eyes staring at me fwklfhlqsfjlaep :freak:

Kids With Guns

My favorite Gorillaz song, I was so afraid they wouldn’t play it, but they did! Neneh Cherry was singing too. Watching Paul Simonon playing the amazing bass part just in front of you is so priceless!

Superfast Jellyfish

Tomorrow Comes Today

Empire Ants

Broken

Dirty Harry

El Mañana

One of the most beautiful Gorillaz songs, it was really to cry about.

November Has Come

I can’t believe they played it, was the only time they did since 2006! MF Doom (the rapper) didn’t even remember the lyrics so he had to read them lol. Before playing it, Damon said something like “It’s the first time we play this song” so we thought it was going to be a new one, but we weren’t disappointed at all!

Doncamatic

Fuck the haters, I didn’t know what to think of this song at first, but now I absolutely love it! Daley is amazing on it :) I heard people yelling “It’s shiiit!” behind me, talk about fans..

White Flag

It started with a solo from the National Orchestra of Arabic Music, with Mick Jones dancing in such a cute way, haha it was too funny! Then Damon was holding a huge white flag and for like 3minutes kept spinning around like a little child. When he stopped he couldn’t walk straight lol

To Binge

Such a beautiful song, you could feel the love between Damon and Yukimi, aww the way they look into each other’s eyes while singing! Damon looked like he was about to cry :}

DARE

Glitter Freeze

Punk

Plastic Beach

 

Encore:

Cloud of Unknowing

Bobby Womack sat in front of us saying this song was one of Damon’s and his favorites, and then started singing. I couldn’t stop moving for the whole show, but at this point everyone stopped moving, and you could feel something in the air, what a touching moment it was!

Feel Good Inc.

Maseo from de la Soul starts the song with the evil laugh, must say it was quite impressive! In the end Damon joined him and they both laughed like evil looking into each other’s eyes, got a funny pic of this.

Clint Eastwood

Don't Get Lost In Heaven

Demon Days

What an absolutely perfect way to finish the show. The audience was silent for a moment, and then everyone started cheering and clapping, it was SO loud!

 

As for the setlist, we got extremely spoilt: they played for 2 hours, and we got 27 songs, means it was their longest show EVER, they must like their French audience I guess :}

 

Funny moments/highlights of the show (well those I remember at least!)

- Smoggy standing next to an amp, and as the song started, stretching his arm in front of it and doing a concerned face cause it was really loud.

- Damon hugging absolutely everyone on stage

- Damon throwing water at Smoggy and the audience, and Smoggy running to get a towel and wipe the stage so Damon wouldn’t slip :P Smoggy always he to run so Damon's mic wire wouldn't get stuck lol

- Damon trying to speak French and saying about Gorillaz “it is éclectique” in a really cute way :wacky:

At some point he stopped and asked us to repeat after him. He started whispering "Maseo... Maseo..." so the whole audience was saying that without knowing what it meant. I understood later it was the name of a guy from De la Soul, that's why he was cracking up xD

- Damon stopping between 2 songs to say “Oh Paris, what have you done to us? What do you want from us?”. He was totally sincere, was really touching to hear that!

 

Oh, and Paul Simonon is my new hero, he’s the classiest bass player ever. I really love the way he holds his guitar like a gun and points it at random people haha. Also, he was so charming, smiling at us all the time and striking poses when I was taking pictures! Oh that wink he sent, Louise and I are still fighting about who it was directed at xD

Some of my pics now!

Nice review, it's cool that they played "November has Come", MF Doom seems to have put on weight in the videos i saw.

 

By the way, what do they show in the screen while they're playing Doncamatic? The Donca Matic or the video?

Yes it was the Doncamatic video.

Perrine I love you but the wink was for me. I'm sorry :lol:

Haha I love you too, but Paul definitely winked at me *starts pulling Louise's hair*

^ :veryangry2:

 

You killed me with your pics :sweatdrop:

And I hope I'll kill some others hehehe

Oh my god though that pisses me off "fans" at the concert were saying Doncamatic was shit though!!! :angry: FUCKING RUDE MUCH?!

Louise I'm gonna go watch your videos now :nice:

 

I remember when i didn't liked the song the first time i heard it, and then two weeks later, i can't get enough of it.

 

It's really amazing how this band can do this.

I thought that song would do that.

 

But I mean at least we are all civil about not liking it (those of us who didn't like it at first). But that's totally different than going to their concert and booing it, what the fuck is wrong with people? :sad:

I was the first getting in so I was walking quietly, but then I saw crazy girls running behind me and screaming so I had no choice but to run too xD.

I remember seeing you walking and all those girls started running, at that moment I was at the enter of the venue with that stupid security girl and in my head it was like RUN PERRINE! RUN OR I’LL KILL YOU IF WE DON’T HAVE THE FRONT ROW! :uhoh::uhoh:I’m sorry Perrine I was too excited and this woman who didn’t let me enter, it was too much for my brain and my heart. But you did a great job :kiss:

So a guy from De la Soul started playing music to entertain the crowd before Little Dragon, and we see Damon dancing like a weirdo on the side(no no I didn’t imitate him :P), was so funny!

LOLOLOL he really doesn’t know how to dance :shame:, but that's so cute. And that ping pong party, lol they played until the very beginning of the concert :lol:.

Now, was time for the main course as Maseo from de La Soul said!

The show starts with a video of Murdoc in the dressing room, wow Jamie’s drawings look so good on such a big screen! That’s a shame cause I didn’t look at the screen that much, there was too much going on on stage :P

Would you pleaseeee Stop playing that Sodding Banjo :laugh3::laugh3:

Hey guys, remember when i told you about how i would loved that Gorillaz came to South America?

 

Well... this maybe happening:

 

http://potq.cl/2010/11/27/personal-fest-2011-traeria-un-cartel-de-temer-en-argentina/

 

I live in Uruguay and Argentina it's right next to it, so if this rumour gets confirmed, i'll take a bus and queue with a lot of users in the South American Gorillaz forum.

 

And i remember that a reliable source in the Gorillaz camp told G-U that they will play more festivals, so this could be true.

 

Of course, i'll keep some low expectations, but if it happens, i'll jump and cry of happiness.

That would be cool if it's true!

So glad you had such an amazing time Perrine!!! :awesome:

We were already too damn excited lol

Is Damon's mic just in the middle of the stage? I'm starting to plan strategies for my gig.... :D

 

I was already crazy about this song, but now it’s even worse. So at some point, Damon jumped on the big amp in front of us while singing, and I raised my arm without thinking.

:dead: (<-- can't think of words to describe how I would feel in that situation)

 

Haha in the next couple of weeks I'm seeing both Muse and U2, and then Gorillaz 10 days after that.... I know the other two are amazing bands but you guys are getting me so much more excited for Gorillaz than the other two!!! I can't wait!! :dance:

 

Also... I ripped the audio from the three songs they did for the BBC 1 Live Lounge... if you want them they're here :nice:

^ Ok girls no fighting over Paul's wink :lol:

 

 

:bomb::bomb::bomb:

But... okay :shame:

 

It was so funny, he's such a dork haha! Aww thanks :hug:

 

Well they said it in french so I hope Damon didn't hear or at least understand it... Fuck them, I had a blast!

 

I remember seeing you walking and all those girls started running, at that moment I was at the enter of the venue with that stupid security girl and in my head it was like RUN PERRINE!

Hahaha you'd definitely have killed me xD I didn't even run that much, didn't need to lol

Yes! They were so into it haha

 

So glad you had such an amazing time Perrine!!! :awesome:

Yes it is! I'll tell you everything you need to know for the show :}

It was such a magical moment <3

 

Yay! Be more excited for Gorillaz haha. I haven't seen U2 live, but Gorillaz are definitely better than Muse, you can't even compare! You'll forget Muse and U2 fast enough :tongue:

 

Aww thanks! I was looking for the xx cover, soo beautiful :hug:
