it would be even better if one of you would make a recording of it ;-)

alphi · 08.12.2014, 03:15 AM

I'll try !

I'll post soon on dimeadozen an excellent recording of his last show at the Cité de la Musique.. Keep watching the Sonic Sharing section in september !

I imagine this would be a challenging show to record.

_tunic_ · 01.21.2015, 02:19 AM

ha ha! I may even be able to attend this show! It's almost certain that I will spend some time in Paris for work during the end of February. So I might be able to stay the weekend and visit this event.
Or is it sold out already ?

_tunic_ · 02.19.2015, 03:22 PM

so I bought a ticket for this, because I am in Paris this week anyway. But work is too messed up so I won't be able to go. So if anyone want to go see Branca in Paris with 100 guitarists, tomorrow night from the FIRST ROW!!
Drop me a message asap, preferably tonight, as I am not online during the day.
Ticket cost me 18 Euros, I would be willing to drop the price significantly especially if you give me a nice sounding recording in return

Sorry to hear that.

I have a friend who also is not able to go (but physical ticket could not be sold); and another who considered playing on the show but finally hasn't be able to do it this week...
