MARCH 15TH: Jean Michel Jarre's Management have confirmed that Jean Michel Jarre is indeed looking into the possibility of performing a Concert at the Friendship Bridge (Giurgiu-Ruse Bridge) across the River Danube, to celebrate Bulgaria & Romania's entries into NATO on April 2nd 2004.

The proposed Concert is in the very early stages of preparation, with Jean Michel Jarre still yet to visit the proposed Concert Site. Therefore at this very early stage, nothing has been agreed or signed, and obviously, as expected, there are no further details available...WATCH THIS SPACE!!!

JEAN MICHEL JARRE: DANUBE CONCERT UPDATE

MARCH 14TH: Since Jean Michel Jarre's Official Web-Site (www.jarre.net) announced that Jean Michel Jarre had been invited to perform a Concert, by the Bulgarian & Romanian Governments, to celebrate their respective entries into NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organisation) on April 2nd 2004, JARRE UK has been researching the Bulgarian & Romanian Newspapers.

The Romanian Newspaper, Evenimentul Zilei (www.expres.ro), published on March 10th 2004, what appears to be the most detailed Article about the proposed Jean Michel Jarre Concert, that we have so far managed to find. As JARRE UK does not speak Romanian, Leca Radu, a Jean Michel Jarre Fan from Romania, kindly offered to translate the Article for us:-

"JEAN MICHEL JARRE CONCERT ON THE DANUBE
Written By Gabriela Palade

Romania and Bulgaria are preparing a concert to be held by Jean Michel Jarre, upon the bridge over the Danube, marking the actual entrance of the two states into NATO, announced Lyubomir Todorov, spokesman for the
Bulgarian Foreign Affairs Ministry, quoted by the Novinite Web-Site. The two states are currently collaborating to prepare this event, whose details are to be set in the period to come, Cozmin Dobran, spokesman for the Romanian Foreign Affairs Ministry, declared yesterday, for Mediafax. The actual inclusion into the Northern-Atlantic Alliance shall also be celebrated in the capitals of both states. In Bucharest and Sofia, a series of events will take place, especially concerts.

Officials from the Finance Ministry claim that the funds for the show will be given from the budgets of the Culture & Foreign Affairs Office. The Culture Minister, Razvan Theodorescu, initially declared: "We are involved in the event through the Giurgiu Culture Department", only to then claim that he didn't remember neither the details or who had been the initiator. "I only know I saw a paper regarding this decision and I gave instructions for money to be given through the Giurgiu Culture Department. I didn't sign anything." Razvan Thodorescu declared. He showed willingness to allot 20 to 50 Million Lei (about 500 to 1250 Euros) from the Ministry budget.

Asked if this concert can be considered as a form of electoral campaining, the minister denied: "What do you find electoral to this event?...We deserve a little enjoyment and entertainment! We shouldn't praise our acception into NATO as a victory over imperialism, but we shouldn't keep silence over it either. This is an extraordinary event and should be treated as such"."

JARRE UK would like to especially thank Leca Radu for translating the above Article for us. Further Articles about the proposed Concert can be found on the Sofia News Agency (Novinite) Web-Site (www.novinite.com) & the Standart News Web-Site (www.standartnews.com), both in English.

PLEASE NOTE: Whether Jean Michel Jarre has accepted this invitation to perform this Concert is still unconfirmed. JARRE UK has contacted Jean Michel Jarre's Management for information, but does not expect to have any information until next week at the earliest...WATCH THIS SPACE!!!

JARRE UK ANNOUNCEMENT: NEW JARRE UK FORUM

MARCH 7TH: Since JARRE UK's NEW Forum Launch Disaster last week, as promised JARRE UK has been searching for another replacement Forum, as the proposed NEW JARRE UK Forum which developed Pop-Up Adverts, would in order to be Advertising Free, be too expensive for us to provide.

In a rollercoaster of a ride this week, which has seen JARRE UK test out numerous Forums and Forum Software, Claus Lundholm (Former Web-Master of JMJARRE.INFO), has offered to provide JARRE UK with a NEW JARRE UK Forum, and this Forum is definetly, totally, Advertising Free :)

This NEW JARRE UK Forum has been undergoing testing for a few days now, and although we still have a few cosmetic changes to make, Forum Users seem happy with it, and therefore we have decided that this NEW JARRE UK Forum WILL be the current JARRE UK Forum's replacement, and therefore we intend to give it it's official launch on March 12th 2004.

As promised, the current JARRE UK Forum will still remain online until it expires on March 26th 2004, for all of you that want to continue with the current JARRE UK Forum's threads, but for all of you that now want to start using the NEW JARRE UK Forum, it is now online and located here:-

http://jarreuk.jarrelive.com

JARRE UK would like to thank Claus Lundholm for generously providing us with a NEW JARRE UK Forum, and a dedicated Server to host it, and we're sure Forum Users will express the same gratitude...Thanks Claus :)
