My brief review:
Using up holidays from the past year, I was able to attend all the gigs but one, met up with fellow fans and friends and had a fantastic time!The Podium Twente is a nice venue, we saw familiar faces already at the door, fellow fans from Holland and Germany and the friendly guy at the merchandise desk. We were all standing front row and enjoyed the show. The RKs were brilliant and seem to get better and better. Andy and Albert did an outstanding version of "I shall not be moved". Audience was in good mood, dancing and singing along. Each band member was fantastic. After the show, Bill and Nick remained onstage a bit longer signing records and tickets for their happy fans.
Later we thanked Bill and the band members, saw them to their bus and waved good-bye. Staggered back to our hotel in the cold, met crazy people on our way and had a lot of fun. Here's to the next show.
