Iron Maiden at Paris La Défense Arena: A Recap of an Exceptional Evening Interrupted by a Power Outage
To celebrate Iron Maiden’s 50-year career, the legendary band presented a show in Paris entirely dedicated to its first nine albums. This anniversary tour deliberately sets aside recent songs to return to the classics that built the band’s legend. We were lucky enough to see them during their stop at the Défense Arena; it was a promising evening, but one that left a bitter aftertaste regarding the venue’s reputation.

After more than 10 years without a headlining show in the French capital, Black Veil Brides took the stage at the Bataclan for a concert that had sold out months in advance. With Saint Agnes as the opening act, the evening promised a burst of rock with punk and/or metal influences - and it did not disappoint.

Resolve and Ashen: An Exceptional French Lineup at the Vauréal Forum!
French lineup on April 19 in Vauréal: Resolve and Ashen, two rising stars of the French metalcore scene, shared the main stage at the Forum in Vauréal. The concert drew a sizable crowd, largely due to the venue’s proximity to Paris and the fact that Resolve had no dates scheduled in the capital during this tour.

Last Train at Bikini: A Definite Return to The Roots
When your travels take you to Toulouse for a few days and Last Train has a show scheduled at the famous Bikini, what else can you do but go?
The French band’s concerts are always highly anticipated and imbued with a punk vibe that’s sorely missing from today’s rock scene. Joined by Wheobe, the French band was about to rock the Bikini to the dancing feet of an eager crowd.

Organized chaos and communion for Dropkick Murphys' Paris show
There are nights when a concert feels less like a tour date and more like a closing ritual. This was one of those nights. For their final show, the Dropkick Murphys chose Paris—or rather, Paris chose them, as the place to finish what they started. Behind the stage, a gigantic screen displayed high-definition visuals and details, transforming each song into a moving tableau.

On Wednesday, September 3, Post Malone kicked off his cowboy boots at La Défense Arena for a one-off show in France. Between wild pyrotechnics, endless beer, and a honky-tonk atmosphere, the tattooed cowboy delivered an impressive but not always convincing show.
