For the arrival of the star, a large crowd gradually gathered in front of the small podium installed for the occasion in the Aspe hall of the shopping center.

Expected from 4 a.m.

A resident of Rives-de-Gier in the Loire department, she slept at the hotel a stone’s throw away before waiting in front of the store entrance from 4 a.m. Very moved, she left the podium, forgetting her dedication, like many fans confused after a few moments spent with the Béarnais.

Julien Lieb performed the song “The Game”.
Tarbais Quentin and Sarah-Myriam are also among the first to meet the local child. “We were able to pass because I am a person with reduced mobility. He’s adorable, like Star’Ac,” assures the young woman.
An opinion shared by Lina and Fanny, who had seen Julien during the Summer in Pau. Many amateurs will not be so lucky. Indeed, despite the cessation of signatures in favor of only photos with the artist, the time slot will not be enough to satisfy the queue.
“Mixing generations”
“I have my photo!” I never thought I would pass,” says Pauline, still trembling as she comes down from the stage. Ticket holders for the canceled concert at the Zénith de Pau on June 22 will still have the right to the album. Nearly 200 CDs will be distributed during the session.

Julien Lieb took part in the photo game.
According to the organizers, there were between 800 and 1,000 spectators. Some came from Paris, others from Nantes, Lyon or even Landes.
Among them, Gwen, Julien’s mother, happy to see her son during a stopover. “We don’t see him often, so we try to take advantage of him when he’s there,” slips this concert lover. Accustomed to the enthusiasm generated by her son, this mother still appreciates “the mix of generations” and the fact that her son has “remained himself”.
“Pleasure of coming home”
After almost 1h45 of presence, the singer interrupted the game of meetings to perform “The game”, one of the titles of his latest single. Despite the public’s encouragement, the artist will only play one piece, constrained by a tight schedule. “It’s always a pleasure to come home, I hope to see you at my concerts,” concludes the Béarnais before heading off accompanied by his small team.
