Alan Lee Shaw from The Maniacs remembered this day on Unplugged2, a French online punk fanzine (used with the author's permission):
"The Maniacs came on just before The Police as the hot sun was going down and the light was beginning to fade. I remember our performance went down very well with the audience. We had just got Henri Paul in the band as a second guitarist who was something of an up and coming star in French rock, at that time. We did our version of “Kick out the Jams” by the MC5, which seemed to go down well with the French. Unfortunately we had trouble with the bass amp that broke down. We were using 50-watt Hiwatt hired amps. Still, we did a good show. The French bands on the bill were pretty cool. I think Henri Paul knew more of them personally of course.
