The Gathering at Doornroosje

On the 23rd of January The Gathering came to Nijmegen, Doornroosje!
It was one of their last shows before they took a break.
Magnus Machina and Atlantis were also there.

Bart Smit, a former singer from the Gathering, was also there to sing a song! 
Here are some pictures, made by Hans Kreutzer from Maxazine:

Thank you for the amazing shows! This was an awesome year! :)

In just a few minutes I'm going to John Coffey in Tilburg, 013!
You should check out their new album and their accoustic songs. It's very nice!
I can't wait!

P.S. Have you seen the new names for Forta Rock? Iron Maiden, Sabaton, Ghost and some others are coming!

Temper temper

I got the latest Bullet for my Valentine CD "Temper Temper"! :)

Larry and his Flask

It was awesome! I had a fantastic night and there were a lot of people. This was the fourth time I've seen them performing and the crowd keeps growing and growing. They played all my favorite songs :)
I've got a signed poster and talked with the bandplayers.
Interesting news: next year there will be a new mandolin player. I hope to see them soon!
Thank you for the amazing evening!

 

 

Tonight

... I'm going to Larry and his Flask!
And my Cambridge exams are over. I'm celebrating this with the most expensive hot chocolate I've ever bought (it makes me feel really rich, which is fun!). And my dad bought English chocolate bars for the occasion.
I can't wait 'till tonight :)

 

 

Larry and his Flask

Woohoo! Tomorrow is Larry and his Flask coming to Nijmegen! I'm so excited and I really can't wait to see them :)
First I'm having my Cambridge exam in Arnhem. I'm a bit nervous so I hope everything's going fine. Wish me luck!

Autumn

Nelson is our (well, actually it's our neighbor's) lovely garden-cat! It's still autumn, so there are still enough leaves left to play with in our garden. Oh, I do love the autumn!

Twee violen en een bas

While my dad and younger brother went to the Vans Warped Tour, because my younger brother won tickets- the lucky bastard :) , I went to a lecture with my mom about the conflicts between the Netherlands and Germany and the plans for the annexation after the wars. This might sound very boring, but it was quite okay, I guess.
After this lecture, there would be a performance from "twee violen en een bas" (two violins and a bass). They would celebrate and honor twenty years of the Dutch royal family.
Now, just to be clear, I'm not a fan of our Royal house (or monarchy in general). I wasn't quite keen on the idea of going to a performance all about our new king, but we did go because we heard that it wasn't that bad at all. (sorry for the quality of the pictures!)

It turned out to be a very nice show! It wasn't all about "honoring the king with songs", more about the history of our kings (and how foolish they sometimes were and how weird our country actually is). And the music was actually nice! :)

My mom bought two CD's afterwards. Yes, we bought classical music. Aren't we smart and part of "the elite" (as my Dutch teacher would say), now? 

I had a lovely day and it became even better when we went to the supermarket afterwards and bought sushi. A nice film and my favorite food: you don't hear me complaining! 

You can by the CD's here (see link below):
