Benabar's concert

Last night we went to Benabar's concert. He is a French singer who's became famous in the past 5 years. He belongs to this new wave of French singers with what we call "chansons a texte" (songs with lyrics that actually mean something filed with live experiences and stories).
I'm quite fan of Benabar's albums but let's face it, him on stage is absolutely fantastic. He brings all his songs to life... sounds simple but each song they played was a new live version far away from the records. He really made a show out of his concert (not like those who come on stage, sing, and leave).
Hearing the crowd singing "Le Diner" was so powerful.
Of course he sang "Bruxelles" which drove the crowd crazy.
He performed "La Berceuse" a Capella with his musicians as choir. Unbelievable!
I should go more often to good concerts!
