Woo hoo! Found a decent Dutch band.

It seems the drunken contact I mentioned a few posts ago might have paid off. Got an mp3 back from the band my friend met in the bar and it sounds pretty good!

Now to see what they can do with finding promoters/venues etc. Maybe we need to find another band in another town as well.

It looks like it's 10 times cheaper to take the Dover/Calais ferry and then drive to Rotterdam than it is to take the Harwich - Hook of Holland overnight ferry, which is a shame as long ferry journeys are fun.

hey mike,
if you're going from dover then drop by! i dunno who the band are but they can stay in the van if you want to pop in for a coffee.

see you then!

Sounds like a good idea. Want to hitch a lift?
 
my days of lugging myself round the continent in pursuit of live music are well and truly over. i went to holland in 1990 to watch loop play gigs in utrecht and rotterdam. slept rough (stations, airports, etc), had a great time! you're right the harwich-hook journey is great and back then it cost us £50 return inc train travel from london - utrecht.

if you have room for 2 adults + 3 carseats then let me know and i may reconsider....!


Graham,
still here.
 
Yes, I thought it was safe to offer because you wouldn't be able to come.
