I’ve been wondering how many people they thought they could get up at the Roque, given the need for things like parking and toilets. According to Canarias 7 (in Spanish) the answer is “perhaps 2,000”. The idea is to transmit the concert to huge, open-air screens in each of the Canary Islands, and also in Madrid and London, and maybe Paris and Brussels. Jean-Michel Jarre and Brian May are said…
For some time rumours have been circulating around the island’s that Brian May‘s going to give a concert here for the inauguration of the huge, new, Spanish telescope, GranTeCan. Today, the IAC announced that Jean-Michel Jarre has visited the observatories here and at Teide, and will be playing too. My goodness, I think it’s really going to happen.
