de Kade, Zaandam, The NetherlandsFebruary 11th 2006
Angels & Agony, XP8, Minerve, Misery
When people from the Zaandam area decide it's time to have some more gothic at de Kade their bodly start organizing a series of evenings with live acts and a couple of DJs to get a real party going. Tonight they gathered quite a few nice bands but unfortunately less than 20km away the legendary Bauhaus were doing their only gig in the Netherlands. The venue didn't quite fill well at the beginning but as the night progressed it got more crowded.

LTU-Arena, Düsseldorf, Germany
20th January 2006
Depeche Mode and The Bravery
It’s more than four years ago since Dave Gahan, Martin Gore and Andy Fletcher entered Europe’s stages. Fans all over the world awaited them back - and with the album “Playing the Angel” they came back with a flourish in autumn 2005. The band toured the USA from end of October to December 2005 and started the European leg of their tour on 13th January in Dresden/Germany. The two concerts in Düsseldorf were with nearly 50.000 people each sold out and probably the biggest indoor concerts during the tour. It is still unbelievable that this band can attract so many people after more than 25 years in music business. But hey, who ever has seen them performing wants to do it again and again. The three boys from Basildon were accompanied on stage again by Christian Eigner on drums and Peter Gordeno on Keyboard.

The Peppel, Zeist, The Netherlands November 14th 2003
Epica, Sengir, Trisomy
One of the first 'tours' from Epica was this package. Playing in almost every venue to practise, to get the experience and to win the audience. In those days you could see Epica growing, especially Simone from a shy to a strong frontwoman.

Within Temptation, Anouk, Monster Magnet, Ilse de Lange, Di-rect, Danko Jones, Dead Moon, Epica, The Quill, Pro-pain
The start of the festivalseason is Paaspop in Schijndel, in the south of the Netherlands. The weather is, what is usual on most of the Duthc festivals, rainy. The people who stays on the camping site had a weekend with a lot of mud.
