A second chance to see two of the most successful rock concerts of 1986 Rendez-Vous Houston 'The biggest show ever produced on this planet.'
This typically Texan claim was how Jean-Michel Jarre 's Houston extravaganza was described earlier this year, a fact subsequently supported by its inclusion in this year's
Guinness Book of Records. The concert, which took place on 5 April, was part of Houston's sesquicentennial celebrations. It used the ultramodern downtown skyline as both a back-drop and a projection screen for the largest laser show ever given. A crowd of over a million watched it from as far as two miles away.
Jean-Michel describes his aims, and highlights from the evening's amazing fusion of lights, projections, lasers and music are shown. (R)
