Description:

Thierry Vincent proposes a sound piece in the spirit Fluxus. He invests the totality of the budget that was granted to him, too small in his opinion, in the purchase of tickets of the lottery game Le Millionnaire he distributes on stage. The concert consists in scratching all the tickets as loudly as possible, in the hope that one of them be a winning ticket.
