Hmm, it’s been quite some years now and the word ‘indie’ isn’t what it used to be, oh those days from the past… Naah, not really. Music is as alive as we are and this constantly changing. Only problem is, some people don’t notice any change going on. They just keep blaming dropping sales on piracy and other eeeeeeeevil people, you know, the devil, Osama, maybe even Saddam and Putin. Why? Because it can be, and ctually is, hard to blame yourself. To look at the mirror and see the problem. That problem can be described as either big labels/major record companies who ‘need’ the huge profits to give luxurious dinners, to pay for lunches, to big the most expensive clothes they can find, to live the life of a popstar.

Allthough I thought about psoting a big story this time, I’m still having a lot of stuff in both my head, heart and in between, I’m not going to for a number of reasons. Reasons I’m keeping to myself, for now. So I’ve decided to make this post somesort of collage, or just a big picture post with pics taken at London Calling last Friday and Saturday.

It’s me again, after a nights sleep spent at someone else’s place, in Amsterdam. I originally planned to go to Amsterdam, Paradiso, and just party when Bonde do role was eprforming. But the day I was planning to go there, I took a better look at my ticket which said: “doors open 22.00. Bonde do Role 23.00”. Oh wait, what? All concerts start somewhere between 20.30 and 22.30, but not this one? Darn, that sucked big time. But, lucky for me, there was no support act, so at 11pm it would be just Bonde do Role. But I did need to leave early, could only stay there for half an hour, at most, to catch the last train home. Getting stuck in Amsterdam isn’t something you do for fun.
