TOP 11 live (in order of appearance): Keith Fullerton Whitman, Manu Holterbach, France Sauvage, Jad Fair, Ghédalia Tazartès, Charlemagne Palestine, Rhys Chatham, Martin Rev, Jason Lescaleet, Colin Stetson, Stephen O'Malley.

Pros : the first year of my daughter, the first year of my radioshow, interviewing Charlemagne Palestine and Ghédalia Tazartès together, playing live with "la galerie du cartable" a concerto for swimming pool & BBQ in the arenas of a little town near Bordeaux, finishing the (almost) last film by "la galerie du cartable" (Kokoschka teaching Gunter Brus how to paint), publishing the first DVD of "la galerie du cartable (Robert Filiou teaching fluxus martial arts in a Lao fine arts school), speaking with Robert Henke about his laser installation, discovering the music of Jason Lescaleet and Ilhan Mimiraglu, sharing ideas and music with friends (Olivier, Rainier, Thorsten, Karim, Christophe, Amaury), Art Biennal of Rennes with my (almost) wife.

Cons : no time for visiting my old friends in Paris (Sophie, Clémentine, Olivier, I hope to see you soon !), alice rabbit near death experience, rapidshare politics, "Bitche" closing its doors to good music, too much music and no time to listening to it, no time for seeing movies, the death of Chris Marker, Sylvia Kristel and Ilhan Mimaroglu.
