Midwinterfair, Archeon, The Netherlands13th & 14th December 2008
Music, art, workshops, lectures and shopping
With winter on its way it was time again for the annual Midwinterfair in the Archeon. The entire Archeon was full of life. In the Roman bathhouse there were several lectures. For instance by young writer Thomas Olde Heuvelt. The second lecture of the day was by Professor Rotherham about the magical animals of ancient Egypt. These animals are of course the gods. It turns out there is actually only one actual god: Ra. The others are only avatars. Downstairs in the bathhouse music was being played and many visitors enjoyed a nice meal.

Christmas concert: New Model Army & The (International) Noise Conspiracy
This year, Christmas time is New Model Army time once again: I got the chance to be part of one of the treasured Christmas concerts of the troop from the North of England (my first Army concert by the way). Due to the pre-Christmas traffic jam and because of the fact that nearly every parking lot in the area was already taken Marcus (photographer and a friend of mine as well) and I missed the supporting act VOIST.

BIM Fest 2008: The Klinik, The Names, Vomito Negro, The Cassandra Complex, Signal Aout’42, No More, Plastic Noise Experience, Catholic Boys in Heavy Leather, The Arch, Psy’Aviah
December is not only the time, when a big guy with a white beard on a reindeer skid, delivers presents, it usually is also the month, where many fans of dark music travel to Belgium as it’s time again for the Belgium Independent Music Festival, short BIM Fest. This year, the festival went into its 7th round and will came up with lots of highlights, leading the way with a performance of the absolute legendary formation THE KLINIK, who returned from the dead and presented a mixture of classics and brand-new material. But the fest did not stop there already. The organizers invited no one less than VOMITO NEGRO for the 7th issue of the festival, who’re working on a new album right now and presented new material. http://www.bimfest.be
