Thanks everyone for the nice words; I appreciate it! Joost, 
thanks for being the first in line ;-)

I would like to take this opportunity to announce an event later 
this year.

I want show my appreciation for the friendship of all you 
music-bar buddies (and also my other friends and family) by 
organizing a small party with live music from everyone of you who 
are interested in playing a short gig for, say, 10-15 minutes (a 
bit longer or shorter is no problem). Any type of music will be 
fine, even acoustical stuff and jazz ;-)

You don't need to bring all your gear, just an iPod with 
background music and 1 synth or guitar could be enough - it's not 
a stadium gig.
There will be a small PA-system.

Please keep in mind that this will not be a very loud event. It's 
going to be in the vein of your regular pub gig, and people 
should not be scared away by the noiz. Perhaps I could make a 
slot for one louder act at the end of the evening. I will 
personally probably do some relaxed tunes and play electric guitar.

This event will take place somewhere in September of this year in 
Wageningen, probably this pub: http://www.loburg.com.

It's going to be a weekend of meeting each other and having a few 
beers, dining out together, plus one Saturday afternoon/Evening 
with live gigs and a party. No stress, just fun, music and 
meeting friends. With a bit of luck we'll even have nice weather.

Details will follow later in the year.

I hope that some of you guys will find the time and the funds to 
come to Wageningen for a couple of days and play some music for 
small a crowd of, say, 30-40 people. Why not plan a short 
vacation around it?

Cheers!!!

Gert
