So I'm planning to go to Eurockeennes (http://www.eurockeennes.fr/) this Friday night. I would love to go all three days, but my parents are in town and I don't want to abandon them, so I decided to just do a one day ticket. Here's the list of bands. Anyone have any experience with them, live or not?

* A Place to Bury Strangers
* Arno
* Ben Harper
* Biffy Clyro
* Cadence Weapon
* Calvin Harris
* Cat Power
* Comets on fire
* dEUS
* Faso Kombat
* Franck II Louise - Drop It !
* Galactic avec Lyrics Born
* Genghis Tron
* Girl Talk
* Gossip
* Keny Arkana
* La Bande Originale - création
* Massive Attack (they are why I picked Friday night)
* Missill
* Nortec : Bostich & Fussible
* Raspect Soundsystem
* Soko
* T
* The Mondrians
* Yules

Surprisingly the only name there other than Massive Attack that's familiar to me is Cat Power. She's not my cup of tea, but if you're a fan of female singer/songwriters, she's considered one of the best playing right now.

I'd wager that Euromeinke and Not Afraid saw them all last week in concert.

I like the Nortec Collective, so I'd check that one out - love to see how those techno-banda-oomp-pa-pas play to a European audience.

I've also liked some of the stuff I've heard from soko (http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=94795730)

I's spend some time on My Space and see if you liek anything you hear
