Nighttown, Rotterdam, The Netherlands
January 8th 2006
Epica, The Old Dead Tree, Morning
This group of bands is now four days into their gigs in The Netherlands. All the gigs sold out except this last show. When the doors open at four, it is soon very crowded: for all the bands this was a good reason to give their all one last time.

Boerderij, Zoetermeer, The Netherlands
January 7th 2006
Obituary, Samael and Maroon
Freezing in line outside the audience was waiting to get inside the Boerderij. It was not that busy yet. Many came in later because they only came to see Obituary but there were others keen on seeing both Maroon and Samael as well. For the others this was the time to get drunk and warm up for their favourite band.

Plato, Helmond, Netherlands
December 23rd 2005
SQY Rocking Team, Dirk Diggler
In Plato in Helmond a wide range of people has gathered for the Hard & Heavy X-mas Party, which is organised by SQY Rocking Team, headliner of the evening, although not playing last. The audience ranges from the first hour fans of SQY, in their mid-thirthies, to local adolescents interested in a heavy christmas eve. Tonight is a special occasion, since it’s not only a christmas but also a farewell party for SQY’s bass player Joris Le Clerq. When we arrive parts of the audience are already quite drunk - perhaps due to the free beer available on the busses that took them to Helmond? (Great service by the way, getting there and back home on a bus for only 7,50 euros. More gigs should have this accomodation). On arrival Alter Ego X has already performed, Dirk Diggler, the second band of the evening, is about kick off. Due to circumstances we are not able to see the last band, Imitallica, either.

After Forever meets Orpheus
This was one of those special concerts this year I did not want to miss. Though I wasn’t the only one I had expected a bigger crowd. This was not a sold out concert. Those who weren’t there have missed a special evening, one of the best Dutch gothic metal bands performing in one of the best venues of the Netherlands with a complete orchestra!
