Jean Michel Jarre had no particular plans for Millennium New Year's Eve. But then came the tragic terrorist attacks at Luxor, where several Western tourists were killed. UNESCO, in a bid to support the State of Egypt, home to precious world cultural heritage, and most dependent on the tourist trade, asked Jarre to travel to Egypt as its Ambassador to draw media support for the Egyptian tourism industry. During his visit and discussions with the Egyptian government around the subject that something should be done to recreate a positive and modern image of the country Jarre was invited to conceive and perform a Millennium concert at the Pyramids of Gizeh.

Image? They STILL believe it's a simple PR problem.

Wow! I saw a video of it, terrific show. Waiting for him to do something here; I suspect it will not happen in this lifetime. My sister saw his show in La Défense where she lives.

Whenever I hear Second Rendez-Vous I crank it so loud the neighbours complain. That piece was composed specifically for the purpose of rattling windows.
