Innovations and musical discoveries set the tone for this 33rd edition, which welcomed total crowds of 225,000. Amongst the big names on show were Mika, Manu Chao, Massive Attack, Alain Bashung, IAM and R.E.M. As for new talent, the likes of Thomas Dutronc, Seun Kuti, Nneka and The Kissaway Trail led the way. The 2008 edition was also marked by the presence of Swiss artists. Lining up on all of the Festival’s stages (the French speakers K and Favez graced the Grande Scène this year), the Swiss scene left its effervescent imprint on this year’s event. Swiss groups became the worthy tenants of the Détour stage, a new performing space dedicated to homegrown talent. Another new feature of this edition was “La Ruche”, which replaced “La Crique” as the hive of activity for circus arts and street theatre. On the site itself, the Festival’s partners in innovation, the HES-SO Geneva, offered a magnificent panorama of the Festival to 30,000 visitors from the heady heights of the “R-310 machine à paysage”. Frequent visitors to the Festival, the Cie Carabosse enchanted the quartier des Alpes with their river of fire, “A feu et à braise”, a fabulous, poetic demonstration of pyrotechnic prowess. Over at the Village du Monde, the Dôme vibrated to Brazilian rhythms, with a variety of both traditional and contemporary musical styles. Special mention to the spellbinding sensitivity of Mayra Andrade, the amazing body percussion of Barbatuques and the Brazilian hit by the duo Vanessa da Mata-Ben Harper. Amongst the highlights of the Village du Monde, the presence of the Suruí people, guardians of the Amazon rain forest, did not go unnoticed. Their sponsor NGO, the Geneva based association, Aquaverde, was the Festival’s special guest this year. Finally, on the environmental front, the “dry toilets” soon became a much-appreciated natural feature on the Festival campsite.

    I have to say the program this year was kinda shitty with a big loss in rock potential. But being a big Paléo fan for it's diversity I gave it a try. The Hives were massive, and I really wonder what kind of madness incited the organisers to put them at 7:00 which was a huge shame since they rocked my socks off and gave me a nice big nose bleed from the mosh. I'm From Barcelona had a really good energy and were quite fun even though a little samey. Justice simply had nothing to do on the Big Stage and Mika put on a pretty good show although the set as really short due to his only album. The Dodoz are a good bet for french rock. BB Brunes were sad as you might have expected, playing rockstars for 13 year olds. Grand Corps Malade gave a nice, intelligent, and at times funny set. Massive Attack were huge and incredibly powerful. Cocoon are also a good bet for folk pop future: think Sufjan Stevens meets Damien Rice. Dyonisos were simply the best live act of this year's paleo.

    This was an excellent festival. Ben Harper did not disappoint. Mika was great (I breathe for "Relax, Take It Easy"... pop at its finest). Seeing Yael Naim, IAM, Mickey Green & Vanessa Da Mata was a dream come true. MANU CHAO. Just Brilliant! And of course, I must shout out to my Africans: I was very excited to see Nneka and Mayra Andrade. LOVE LOVE THEM. Tiken Jah Fakoly's live rendition of his song "Foly" was great. His band and back up singers (with their blue outfits and perfect choreography) plus his ENERGY had everyone BOUNCING. But my heart went to Asa. She is captivating. Her voice is silk. She and her band had to come back for an encore due to the loud cheers. I am very excited for her career and it is nice to see another African sister do well. And I must make a comment about the 100 or so stands of international cuisine from all over the world: Ethiopia, Vietnam, Brazil.. heck, there was Japanese pizza! There is no better combination of great music and great food.

''girls in hawai'' and ''i'm from barcelona'' was cool..And Babestruques (i forget the name,he plays with her hand etc) was very beautiful and magic..But in first i will saw Mika because il love Lollipop and take it easy..Finally it's a wonderfull show !He speak good French and he sing ''Grace Kelly'' (i think the name is that...) in french and i love so much ''Pour que tu m'aimes bien ,pour que tu m'aime bien ,pour que tu m'adore'' YEAAAAH *.* Now i go to the fnac for buy her first album...I hope Mika return in Switzerland soon !
