Subject: Drummer/Percussionist required for 1998 concert
Date: Mon, 10 Nov 1997 02:35:34 +0000
Greetings all Jarre fans,
In 1998 there will be a large International Convention in Birmingham, England. Part of this event will be a *live* concert of Jarre music. I am now looking for a drummer to perform on the day.
The role will involve rehearsals every month and obviously an interest in Jarre music is very helpful, but not essential. You will need to have access to a kit of your own and it would be advantageous if you lived in the U.K. as rehearsals are held in Birmingham, England.
This really is an excellent opportunity for Jarre fans to be a part of a spectacular event, and chances like this are few and far between.
If you feel that you fit the role please feel free to contact me personally at jarrecon@jarre.force9.co.uk, and I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Paul Moxon
Musical Director - JarreCon '98
14th September:
Natural Image Productions is the name of the company which has been setup to incorporate JarreCon '98 and any future conventions and multimedia releases.
A meeting was held on 6th September where Paul Moxon (Musical director) and the rest of the team decided on the provisional track listing for the spectacular concert planned on the day - and rehearsed a number of the tracks. More information about the concert and other events will be released soon.
23rd July:
JarreCon '98 is confirmed now as August 23rd 1998 at the Guild Hall, Aston University, Birmingham - which also held the highly successful Rendez-vous 96 convention. Many surprises are planned for the day, which will all be announced as the day approaches, but we can tell you that it will be a fantastic day out for all fans of Jean Michel Jarre - please read the information on the previous conventions to give you some idea on the type of events and what you can expect on the day..
More details will be posted on this site as soon as it is confirmed - tickets for the day will be available very soon - return to this page soon for more information on this day !
29th June:
The first meeting of the JarreCon '98 team took place yesterday, and many aspects of the day were discussed. A new part of the logo for the day is included above, and on the front page. The three 'crescent moon' shapes signify the letter 'J' in Braille (the font used for blind people) - and is planned to be used in all aspects of event promotion along with the logo. What do you think of it? Email us on jarrecon@jarre.force9.co.uk and let us know..!
