Yes, I've heard that the french president and his wife were there the 26th !
And the prime minister was there on the 25th.

wednesday, 26, they came to see mr cohen : the left upper cameraman, i thought it was, caught her on tape, that's for sure ; if he could see him, beside her, i'm not sure, and even less sure that he was intersted, but anyway, it's a good thing for la douce france, that they came to participate in this magic night ; and , like the rest of the audience, they must have behaved in the best way possible : clapping their hands just long enough, maybe somethimes softly starting to sing along, just a few words, and than giving back the songs to the ones on stage : a really perfect bunch of respectfull fans ; it still warms my heart. so, goodnight,

I just stumbled onto a terrific youtube video uploaded by MrVintage31 on May 25, 2011
It only had 6 views when I found it tonight.
Paris Olympia, Nov 24, 2008
*Tower of Song*
http://youtu.be/w23OGcHEpAY
LC's outra, "Don't stop..." with the backup singers is hilarious. He spun it out for a long time even mentioning the financial crisis.

EDIT: just noticed MrVintage31 uploaded more from that concert and all have very few views
*Suzanne* http://youtu.be/GATqOscOaiA
*Hallelujah* http://youtu.be/j8EMP4c561s
*Chelsea Hotel* http://youtu.be/oHSTZjZH8Dk
*Anthem* http://youtu.be/W-S2gCLsiek
*The Partisan* http://youtu.be/k2dXHkMNNSk
*Everybody Knows* http://youtu.be/n6PaOXLv7gc
EDIT 2: I had a feeling this "new" treasure trove looked suspicious. Sure enough, these videos were uploaded originally by TheOlive31.

The videos were subsequently terminated by Youtube. So watch these while you can, I suppose.

This is one of those main reasons that these concert threads should not be locked.
Too funny, in the Tower of Song.
Thank you for finding these Arlene!
Best regards,
