Village Interviews: Fete de la Musique - Paris

WEDNESDAY, July 15
7:30 pm
MNN (Click on Channel 67)

Dear Friends :

Happy Bastille Day (Plus one)!

The following can be viewed on any relatively high-speed computer anywhere or on TV in Manhattan:

Today, Wednesday, July 15th, at 7:30 PM (EDT-that's NYC Eastern Daylight Time), on Channel 67, I am re-airing a half-hour program of a recording I made in Paris in 2002 during the Fete de la Musique for my shoestring cable show Famousx2. In addition to some shots of Martiniquen politically - aware Reggae rapper Daddy Nuttea at an outdoor concert in La Republique, there are sequences of all kinds of street musicians, including a great Salsa band.

It is definitely worth setting your VCR, DVR or any recording devices you may have on your computer. The sound quality is good!

If you are in Manhattan and have access to Time Warner, you can see it this Wednesday July 15th, at 7:30 PM (DST-that's NYC Daylight Savings Time) on Channel 67. On the RCN system, that should be Channel 85 or thereabouts.

If you are in Manhattan and have access to Time Warner, you can see it this Wednesday February 27th, at 7:30 PM (EST-that's NYC Eastern Standard Time) on Channel 67. On the RCN system, that should be Channel 85 or thereabouts.

If you are outside of Manhattan, anywhere in the world, and you have a good high-speed connection on your computer, you can go to MNN-What's on Now? or to MNN and click on channel 67 to see it at the same time.

Sometimes MNN does screw up broadcasts, but usually they air things without too many problems.....Be patient if it screws up for a few minutes.

Best,
Jason
