In life, there are inveterate fans of electro music, classical music enthusiasts, hip-hop fans and metal music fans. And then, of course, there are the rock lovers, excited by the frenzied riffs, the heady beats and the ultra catchy bass lines.
For you, dear rocker friends, you should know that Paris will soon be welcoming a host of rock artists and bands of all kinds, who are likely to have you jumping up and down like crazy.
It's worth noting that many Parisian concert halls open their doors every year to this inescapable musical style that many, young and old, love. These include, of course, theElysée Montmartre, the Maroquinerie, the Boule Noire, the Trabendo and the famousOlympia.
Some even bigger and more impressive venues also play host to rock artists and bands throughout the year. Over the past few months, Placebo and Arctic Monkeys have turned theAccor Arena in Paris' s 12th arrondissement upside down, while Muse have set the Stade de France in Seine-Saint-Denis alight. Meanwhile, the legendary Bruce Springsteen and his E Street Band created quite a stir with two exceptional shows at the Paris La Défense Arena in the Hauts-de-Seine department.
In the near future, other rock bands are planning to do the same, paying tribute to this unique musical style, which brings many rock fans and enthusiasts together in a festive and convivial atmosphere.
