The Kooks play “Ooh La” in Paris, France Read the whole article and see more videos here: www.blogotheque.net “Somebody proposed us to shoot a Take away show with the English band The Kooks. We accepted after our contact told us many times that they were young (19 yo) and crazy. They were. Vincent Moon went to film them, I couldn’t. But I can tell you that it was a huge moment. At first it doesn’t look that crazy. Just wait for the end. I still shiver when I watch it…” www.myspace.com www.blogotheque.net http Paris Guide –

This street is called Mandel and then Martin. I think it’s in the 16th arrondissement in Paris. The absence of shops and services is a sure indication very, very rich people live here. This is sort of between Trocadéro and the Bois du Bologne. I spotted an RER train stop here called MARTIN. You could also begin walking here from by the Passy Cemetery near Trocadéro (métro Trocadéro) (or Rue de La Pompe). The cemetery is very pretty, by the way, and full of interesting, famous and sometimes very tragic graves (such as many victims of the Concorde plane crash in 2000). As you can see, there are bike lanes here, so you could rent a Vélib bike if you can figure out how to do that (I can’t, but if you hire me as a guide, I would figure it out and arrange it for you — it’s not a very user-friendly system and the deposits required are substantional, from what I gather). Last weekend, none of the trees in Paris were green yet, only budding, but today, they were leafy. “April in Paris” is not as good as “March in Paris,” however. You get your best Spring flowers in March, and April often has unpleasant heat waves. Also, around Easter, there are school holidays and rates for accommodations, flights and many other things skyrocket during “les vacances scolaires.” Public transportation runs on holiday schedules (reduced). copyright 2012 Lisa B.
