What a week.

Saturday, March 20th, 2010

Starting on Friday night, I went out with Alexandra and Eva after seeing a crappy show by Leine & Roebana. We had some beers at Meneer Jansen and after dropping Eva off at the station, Alexandra and me continued the night eating falafel and chips, and went home at around 2am. Great night out.

I’ve had issues before concerning synchronizing and copying music to my iPod, which had to do with the speed of the usb port I used. Apparently the usb ports [...]

Combichrist

Friday, February 12th, 2010

Last week I visited a concert by Combichrist, a hardcore techno band that’s currently Rammstein’s supporting act on their Liebe Ist Fur Alle Da tour. I saw Combichrist at the Rammstein concert in the Gelredome on December 6th, and I’ve been gathering their music ever since. They tweeted last week that their show in P60 [...]

Anton Pieck

Thursday, February 4th, 2010

I’ve been a fan of Anton Pieck’s work for about two years now (and yes, he’s the guy who thought up the Efeling sprookjesbos), and in this time I’ve gathered some scanned prints of him. To make a long story short, here’s one of the best drawings I’ve seen:
