OliDayyy Posted July 15, 2008 Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 I made a translation on the LJ community: (sorry for the mistakes) Wednesday, June 18th. In Paris, the sky is blue, and moreover, Paramore plays at the Bataclan. What's better? We can feel some excitement. Indeed, soon as we arrive, near the venue at 1.00 pm, there is a long waiting line - composed with a lot of doubles of Hayley.... Everyone is waiting for Paramore. We enter in the Bataclan, while the roadies are preparing the stage and the instruments. The beautiful Hayley appears to us naturally (the occasion to see her cute face without any make up), wearing black clothes and her H2O shirt. But this is Josh and Jeremy that we're going to interview. Will, the tourmanager, shows us where are the guys, in the dressing room, waiting for us. Josh remembers us, (we met last year at Le Nouveau Casino) and we talk about the news of the band from Franklin. Josh and Jeremy look very exhausted, but relaxed. They tell us that Zac doesn't feel good "Everytime we go on tour out of the USA, Zac gets sick. I can't explain it, it's just very curious", says Jeremy, amused but also embarassed for his friend. Tonight, this is the last concert from their European tour, before their come back in the USA to plau several concerts at the Warped Tour in July, and then their last tour "The final Riot!". And this Paris show is also symbolic because it's the come back of Paramore in France, few months after the cancellation of their concert at Le Trabendo. Hayley has already told us in one of our interview that the band really needed a break. "Thsi break was very useful and that has helped us to get better", explains Jeremy. "I've received a lot of mails on my Myspace page. The fans said that they were ok about that, the most important thing was that we had to feel better. We were really touched by that." Josh feels a bit awkward concerning this period and prefers to have a look at the future. "The fans have been disappointed by the cancellation of severals dates, but at the same time they've been very understanding during this period which wasn't easy for us. Before coming in Europe, we did a US tour with Jimmy Eat World. It was the best experience we've ever had on road. Everything's better now." And trust us, Paramore still have a lot of ambitions. For instance, Jeremy tells us: "We'd love to play a sold out show at Madison Square Garden in New York. It would be awesome!" But for the moment, they have to play in Paris, at the sold-out Bataclan! 7.30 pm. In front of the venue, it's empty, all the kids are already in the venue. The openers, Borderline, arrive at 8 pm and their set is appreciated by the crowd, and by them too, as they explained us after the show. Inside the venue, the heat is impressive, and we wonder how do the kids in the first rows can bear it. At 9 pm, the lights are off. Zac comes on stage. Even if he's a but exhausted, the drummer gives all his power to introduce "Let The Flames Begin", and he's quickly joined by the guitars of Josh and Taylor, and the bass of Jeremy. Once Hayley appears, the crowd gets hysteric. We can quickly feel how the band is comfortable on stage, it's as amazing as Hayley's voice and charisma. The end of the first song is intense. Hayley is even lying on the floor. No doubt, the concert is going to be huge. Then, the band plays "Emergency" (hit single of their debut album All we know is falling), and "Stop This Song" (bside of the single Misery Business). "We are Paramore!" shouts Hayley. "It's so hot in there!! You are much more than the last time, more people means much more dance!". So, it's time for "Here We Go Again", and the crowd can't stop jumping. On "That's What You Get" (this title is meaningful for Zac's condition tonight!), he's definitely weak, even if he keeps playing very well. The other members give all their energy while the crowd do it too. "Pressure", "Miracle", "For A Pessimist I'm Pretty Optimistic" rock. Then, Hayley takes her piano, for the beautiful song "When it rains". "We have cancelled a show. But now we're here, and thanks for coming! This show is awesome!". Regarding the band's performance, we can easily forbid them. "Crushcrushcrush", "Born For This" and "Woah" are played as hits singles, and the crowd sing along. "My heart" is the last song. But, don't they forget a song? Yes sure! The band comes back few seconds later: "I've torn my shirt, do you see that? But it's a sacrifice to do to assure a good show " says Hayley, before singing on Misery Business, and that's so crazy! We had everything we could wish for, and we are reassured, Paramore is alive.
