Red de NPS!

Het kabinet heeft vrijdag 24 juni besloten tot opheffing van de NPS als onderdeel van een nieuw plan voor de publieke omroep vanaf 2008. De NPS is daar verbijsterd over. De toekomst van tal van zeer gewaardeerde publieke programma’s staat op het spel.

Steve Vai Concert

Just now I came home from a concert from Steve Vai with the Metropole Orchestra. It was in Groningen, De Oosterpoort. The first three songs where composed by Steve but played by the Metropole Orchestra.

Setlist:
01. Is it over yet? (Shadows & Sparks)
02. Frangelica
03. Helios & Vesta
04. Liberty
05. Bledsoe
06. Gentle Ways
07. The Murder
08. Lotus Feet
09. I’m Becoming / Salamanders In The Sun
10. Answers
11. Encore 1: For The Love Of God
12. Encore 2: Attitude Song

After an intermezzo Steve came back with some serious guitar noise!!
I personaly liked the slow songs better than the heavy ones.
But is was a very nice experience that lasted almost 3 (yes THREE) hours.

BTW: The whole concert was recorded by the dutch TV channel NPS, and will appear on DVD later. And all photo’s are taken with my small digital camera which I sneaked inside.
