Elegant Machinery and Dreiklangzone
Sometimes wishes come true. It was about 8 or 9 years ago, when I heard the first time about Elegant Machinery. I liked them at once and just couldn’t believe when they split up. So I thought I can’t trust my ears when I heard the news that they are back together again and will release new material this year! To promote the old and new stuff they played some gigs in Germany and I was really looking forward to that.

Unheilig
A band playing in such a small venue and still people from Germany and even England come to see them there, quite special. After seeing them live I could understand; there is just something about them…

Theatre of Tragedy and Gothminister
I was really looking forward to seeing Theatre of Tragedy again. Especially I was anxious to see and hear their new singer. In the old days I was pretty hooked to Theatre of Tragedy, but they lost me with their crossroad album ‘Musique’.

Macabre, Jungle Rot, Xenomorph, Deface
Half an hour before the evening starts: The bar is quiet filled with public, but also many band members visiting their merchandise stand and talking with the audience. While looking around a bit I noticed Macabre, the headliner of this evening, brought the most fans to the venue. The merchandise goes quiet fast. In only a few minutes I see Macabre T-shirts all around me. It impressed me. The people around me seem to have good faith in this band.

Rapalje
A night of folk in Utrecht… what was the opening act again, nothing? So just Rapalje? Yes, just Rapalje all night long. And what a night it was, full of dance, song, beer and laughter. This pickpocket, gigolo, beggar and their guest sure know how to show their audience a good night.
