Wayne Shorter in France?

[bertrand]

I'll be in France from 6/25 to 7/17.

imnworld.com lists a few Wayne gigs, but I know they don't list everything. Does anyone know of any other shows in France during this time? Paris would be perfect. He is not scheduled for the Festival which takes place every week-end in a park, although I will be seeing Wallace Roney on 7/6.

Thanks in advance,

Bertrand.

sorry Benard but the only gigs this time in France are in Vienne.

enjoy your time!!

If I were you I'd hop on a train to Vienne. Lyon is only a little over two hours on the TGV, and Vienne is a few minutes south of there. Having played there many times, I can tell you the setting is amazing.

Valerie,

Thanks for checking with Wayne - that's awesome!

Vienne is definitely tempting - I will see how the logistics pan out. It depends on whether I can go back to Paris right after.
