I was in Paris a few years ago on 21st June - it was amazing. There were bands all over the city in parks and on street corners. Really magical!

Yes it's true, it is the "fête de la musique"...
I remember a 21st june playing with Daniel with the amps and guitars of our students in front of people walking on the street... Great moment!
Every musician, debutant or not plays his music on the street, in the park... love this day

I'm from South-West Finland. If the weather is not rainy we'll spend Solstice at my cabin.

In this year Summer Solstice hits Midsummer eve. Here's an Wikipedia article of it. See chapter 3.9:

Kari I hope you can get out on that sauna boat of your friends and sit in the middle of the lake and play some music for the event... post some vids or pics... that would be cool

Daniel & Jean... yes it sounds like France is the place to be for solstice... Hopefully somebody can get some pics posted up or vids. That would be way cool to see how everyone celebrates this time of year around the world.
