Editorial: August 2012


Another tremendous month here at vive le roq, with last month continuing the upwards trend in visitors. We've again had the highest number of visitors to the site.

Not bad for a month that saw the site essentially on autopilot, getting by with pieces that were pre-written before I went off on holiday.

But we still managed to keep the number of posts high, a solid 22 posts ranging from look back pieces about Jon Lord and Chris Marker, new releases by the likes of France and Black Strobe, some live shows in the UK by some of France's biggests names and the whole debacle of Madonna's dates in France.

Also I've finally been taking a look at the vive le roq twitter feed, which I'd let slip. It will now tweet out the blog posts as they go on the site, and hopefully attract a bit more attention to what's been written here.

You can follow us on twitter @viveleroq

This month? More of the same, and more of it hopefully. I've still not managed to get past last June's record of 27 articles, I'm always optimistic at the start of the month that this will be the month that I pass the record.

However, rather than just aim for quantity, hopefully the writing will be worth reading. The music will certainly be worth listening to, that's for sure.

As always, if you're a promoter or a band you can contact me at johnkilbride AT hotmail DOT com, with the  @ and dot replaced as appropriate.

Merci et à bientôt
