The Montivert Music Festival deprived of concerts because of storms on zoomdici.fr (Zoom43.fr and Zoom42.fr)

A by-law pbaded because of weather conditions, put an end, before the hour, to the first edition of the Montivert Music Festival which was to continue this Saturday, July 28 at our neighbors Ardèche, Saint-André-en -Vivarais.

The kick-off of this first edition of the Montivert Music Festival was given yesterday, Friday, July 27, 2018. BB Brunes opened the ball, then Roch Voisine took over the stage for more than an hour concert opposite the majestic Château de Montivert and some 3,000 people. But already, the sky barely veiled in the middle of the afternoon, has darkened more and more. A first downpour only had the effect of superficially watering the dry grbad of the Montivert Park. Not enough to frighten the spectators who took up again the tubes of the Canadian.

La Roch Mania still exists

Faithful to the post. Raphaëlle, Victoria, Pascale, Magali, Lydia, Angela, Marie-Thérèse, Marie-Christelle, Bruno, Ermano, Martine, Charlotte and Fanny arrived very early in the afternoon to be at the forefront of Roch Voisine's concert.

This is not a first for this group of friends, some of whom come from Saint-Etienne, others from Paris, Nancy, Lyon, Mézieux and even from Switzerland and Belgium. " We saw it, six months ago and we already have our places for his concert in Paris in 2019 ", amuse friends. Hockey jersey – the artist's favorite sport – and autographed hats, the panoply of fans is perfect. " He is here, he is there ", they launch to each other, when Roch Voisine approaches the stage. And then, the rescue, Roch Voisine seizes his guitar, stands in front of the microphone. The crowd has eyes only for the interpreter of "Hélène", in other tubes.

Things are spoiled

A little after 9 pm, Miss K has did the show and it was necessary to warm a public completely soak. It was no longer a shower, but a storm. The most courageous and the most organized (in possession of an umbrella or an impermeable garment) remained in front of the stage, while the others looked for a corner to take shelter. The lightning was splitting the sky, and all of a sudden, more sound, the rocker Mademoiselle K was stopped in its tracks by a power cut lasting about ten minutes.

Love at first sight for Christophe Willem

The spectators held out until the lull. And their perseverance has been rewarded. Christophe Willem gave a high quality concert. The singer, with his twelve-year career, is no longer the timid young man that viewers discovered in the broadcast Nouvelle Star broadcast on M6. With great elegance, but also a lot of energy, Christophe Willem devoured the scene. His infectious dance steps made the crowd move. The park of Montivert then turned into giant dancefloor.

A municipal decree

This Saturday, July 28th, due to the risks of thunderstorms, the mayor of Saint-André-en-Vivarais has forbidden by municipal decree holding the second and last evening of the Montivert Music Festival.
