Today is the longest day of the year! A good reason for France to go immediately out on the street for a great party that takes the whole evening and night with the Fête de la Musique. On the streets, in every village and town, there are performances from anyone who can sing or play a gig; that can be very beautiful, in 80 percent of the performances you will enjoy unknown talent but you have the risk that your ears go nuts when the novice rock band of the neighborhood boys thinks they are as good as AC-DC. Take along a bottle of rose, stroll along squares and streets and enjoy, after all it is only once a year Fête de la Musique.
