MySpace has formally launched in France, and will mark the launch with a special 'secret show' in Paris tonight featuring London band Archive.
For any Parisians out there in CMU land, if you want to go you need to add Archive and the MySpace Secret Shows France page to your MySpace friends list, put them into your top 8 friends, print out your MySpace profile, get the venue info from http://www.myspace.com/secretshowsfr and then show up at the venue with the print out which, come to think of it, sounds like an awful lot of hassle - especially as entry isn't guaranteed (first come first served and all that).
Whatever. Here's what MySpace Tom has to say about the new French service (though you can't help thinking this is a generic quote that some PR has slipped the word 'France' into): "There is something here for everybody and we can't wait to continue making it relevant for local users in France and everywhere worldwide".
