The techno parade

On September 20th, Paris had an enormous techno parade with huge buses and trucks decked out in speakers.  Some friends and I went to investigate, thinking it would be fun, but we hardly expected all of Paris's twenty-something crowd to be there.  Even several stops away the metro got very crowded, and you could feel the excitement.  It was easy to identify who was headed to the parade. 

Though the parade spanned several blocks, we caught it at the Place de la Bastille, which is a huge roundabout.  Here are some clips:
