Blind Test Special: French Chanson is a music guessing night held at Burnout Bar in Montpellier, in the Occitania region of southern France. Players listen to short excerpts and try to name the songs, with the whole evening devoted to French chanson.
What the evening is like
- A blind test format: the music plays, and you race your ears against the other guessers.
- Themed entirely around French chanson, so the playlist stays within one tradition.
- The session starts at 9 PM, on 17 November.
- The listeners with the sharpest ears can win shots.
Making a night of it
This is a good choice for those who enjoy music and friendly competition more than a formal concert. Teams and solo players both fit the spirit of a bar quiz, and you don't need to be an expert to join in and enjoy the listening. Montpellier's old town and its lively evening streets are an easy walk from most central areas, so the event can be part of a longer evening out.
