I have a hot new information for the person who asked for edbanger party information a couple of months ago.

If you are in Paris next Sunday, you can buy tickets for a cruise on the Seine with all the Ed Banger crew ! (I REALLY mean ALL from Justice to Mr Oizo Pedro winter etc…)

For the moment we just know where the boat is leaving from: La maison de la radio (16eme district)

You can buy tickets only on digitick here

I just saw the weather for Sunday: 18°, no rain… perfect.

Enter through the main entrance and enter the first building on your left. Keep walking straight until you hit the courtyard. Bring a sandwich and sit under the shaded porticos. Wear a Roman inspired toga dress. The only thing missing is a beautiful more >>

Where to go and what to do on a budget?

Thank you very much!

Visiting Paris first week in July. Where are the best places to catch live music (bands like Doves, Athlete, Radiohead, Eels, Travis…)
Thank you.
