Music at the Race

For all those who said the bands during the race were too French, this year they have Kool and the Gang. No temptation to take time out from the race then

I'd have no problem whatsoever with "too French" if they'd get Daft Punk to play!

That's Kool.

One of my all time favorite funk bands.

If they play Celebration while I am passing by, I might consider stopping up for that song before moving on the cars .
To be honest it has to be something MASSIVE for me to go to the concert instead of following the race.
A Led Zeppelin reunion kinda size of thing.

No Pony Pony Run Run this year, but Jamiroquai make their return friday June 15th, after having played at Le Mans before in 2003. Small caveat though, the concert takes place in the MMArena and you have to buy tickets for the concert. They go on sale December 19th, 10 am at ticket.lemans.org
I don't know how much the tickets cost.

I like it. Putting it on Friday gives it a nice day to itself, and putting it in the arena isolates it from the racing event, meaning it's a nice addition rather than a distraction.

It's not my thing and I wouldn't attend but I think it's a great idea for the Friday night.

Now i know you prefer cars to music, but Jamiroquai are pretty big, and JK, the front man, has been on your favourite programme(top gear) several times with his love for Lamborgini and Ferrari.
Last time they were at Le Mans (courtesy of Audi) they were not on the stage but inside the track close to the audi hospitality, could not get even close to seeing them so gave up.

I saw Texas a couple of years ago at Carfest, I was looking forward to them, but found them very ordinary and boring. As for Dr Feelgood - without Wilco, why bother? My beloved saw them after Wilco left and thought them wonderful, every time she plays their greatest hits I just point out that the wonderful tension and stuttering guitar is missing after the first 4 songs. Is there actually anyone from the original band left in it now? Might give them 5 minutes for old times sake, but fortunately Texas are on during the race so no temptation there :-)

A good friend of mine's a big Feelgood fan, but hasn't bothered going to see them for decades. Instead, he catches Wilko's tours, apparently a far more authentic Feelgood experience, from what he tells me.
