June 1976 ,France .33 years ago .The boot Backstage Unlimited send me back directly to this moment .It was such a hot night ,as Mick said it in French during the concert .It was my 1 st rock'n roll show ever and the music was so violent,resounded in my whole body ,it literally stired me.I remember Bill Wyman ,playing his bass almost vertically .Keith looked as a ghost,a magnificent tramp,playing mostly with his eyes closed .Jagger was so amazing,astonishing,beautiful.While singing Brown Sugar -I was almost front row with my mother- he leant as he used to do it and half a second his eyes met mine ,I went ...whow!!!he'd got such bright eyes,but I felt really frustrated ,thinking :"this guy will never know neither my name nor who I am ".
To be more specific,I was a teenager at that time .And 33 years later,my love for the band is still intact .
I am a Frenchie ,as Mick affectionately called them in the Old Grey Whistle Test in 1977 .
