Two hours before the grand opening, we were frantically laying out tables, setting up computers and video projectors.
Deux heures avant ouverture, on était en train de monter les tables, les ordinateurs et les videoprojecteurs.

I'm sorry I just loved the view.
Je suis désolé je trouvais cette vue paisible superbe.

It was more than just business.
C'était plus un échange d'amitié et inspiration que d'argent.

Needless to say, let the image talk.
Inutile d'en parler, c'était un succès.

Discobabel and its partners put together an outstanding exhibition of underground talent and attitude. On every table, there was something that caught your eye, at every corner someone to talk to, dj's filling your ears with synthetic and/or rocking sounds and a colossal eyecandy of flyer design and two-tone madness (by yours truly).

Tiring, yes, but rewarding, much more so. Setting up went smoothly; probably the first time I have set up a projector and got it working first time round without any sort of heart-throbbing tinkering. Once that was done it was like a fun day out, see below.

Memories from the event:

1. Dancing and being photographed with Marie-Pierre.
2. Being embarrased in front of Nine.
3. Music making bliss on an iMac, thanks to David F.
4. Claire the TOP 5 queen, Franck the PR master and Virginie the "Paymaster General"
5. Picking up a fresh warm copy of the TOP 5 fanzine at the end.
