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!

W2, Den Bosch, The NetherlandsDecember 26th 2005
Auracle, Yobbo!
On the day after x-mas most people have a day off with more family routine, dinners and other boring stuff. The lucky ones who broke away from that could go to Den Bosch to see a small festival for emerging 'local' bands. Arriving a bit late the first two bands of the night had already finished but after all it was the headliner which we wanted to review anyway.

Vera, Groningen, The NetherlandsDecember 23th 2005
Autumn and Nemesea
The dark nights before Christmas are always a bit hard: there are too many people searching for the perfect christmas present. Luckily there is the 'Vera' with a warm atmosphere. Soon it is crowded in the venue, a good sign.

Archeon, Alphen aan den Rijn, The NetherlandsDecember 17th 2005
Morning, Valkyre, Trisomy
In the early morning of December 17th we drove (slithered actually) through heavy hail to get to the Archeon, a historical theme park in Alphen aan den Rijn. You can visit prehistoric times, the middle ages and the Roman era and this day there was a gothic and fantasy midwinter fair. Every house and building filled with stores to everybody’s liking, there are lectures, fights and there is music!
In the ‘Refter’ (the dinner space of the monks) there is a small stage set up, with a few lamps to create some atmosphere.
