It was a very good concert. It was really easy to be at the front because people were there for other acts like Scorpions or Snoop Dogg.
Russel was not there.
It was a good suprise to hear Lipgloss and A little Soul this time.
Jarvis said he would walk around after his performance and so he did. My friends and i met him during Scorpions' set. He was very nice, he introduced to us his son.
I later saw Jarvis with Steve watching Snoop Dogg.
I will upload a few pictures later.

Tantalising snippets..who is the guy playing violin dressed like a chef?
I think i've found out who the guy is. He's called Franck Marty. I think he tours for a famous french singer Olivia Ruiz who was playing before Pulp on the same stage last thursday.
I'm pretty sure that's him looking at this picture :
I am new ( I have been reading this forum for years and years but now it is time for me to add some thoughts concerning Pulp) I am a french fan and went to this very popular and diverse festival which is Les Vieilles Charrues, a place where programmers buy artists but not a unique kind of listeners. who can be a fan of the indie pop pulp, the stadium scorpions and snoop doggy dog at the same time ??? Anyway, i really loved the performance, they arrived at 8.50pm and jarvis arrived like a warrior on stage as he always do, the crowd from the front was preety crazy and i was in it. One problem with that performance in France is that they played during the day, the neons letters were not lighted ( also during the intro ) and that was a bit strange to see after have watched so many videos of them performing in primavera etc.. An other problem was that they avoided 3 very goods songs in their setlist ( pink glove, i spy and feelingcalledlove) but why? i do not really understand their choice. ok, playing by day is relax but playing catchy songs is also something to do to motivate people ( they also played the other songs we know they play) but a litlle soul was too quiet ( as the 3rd song! before something changed and sorted! not very a sweeting moment at the front ). They also played live bed show which was good but i was waiting for an outro ( the V96 one in particular) but it did not happened. As a conclusion, i would like to say that I REALLY appreciated their performance (i had a backache and had dolors in my feets after : yes it is true). I really hope to see them again this summer. I am sure they will do something in Paris.
