Quotebv The City Council of Oslo Norway have approved the 55,000 capacity field Voldsløkka Idrettspark (sports field) for two more concert days in 2022, in addition to the originally approved week-end of 3 days. Voldsløkka as a large concert venue will replace Valle Hovin, which is no longer available for concerts, due to unstable concrete grounds. I sommer blir det «mega-festival» på Voldslø

Don't know if this has been mentioned before (can't read all those 53 pages!), but: I just got the double vinyl. Why did they not use the opportunity to add the long (6:34) version of Slave that was on the 1994 remaster ?

QuoteTheflyingDutchman Quotewalkingthedog QuoteTheflyingDutchman Very sad news indeed. Although George Kooymans could be replaced I believe the Golden Earring "calling it quits" is the right decision. Their power has gone long ago. Replacing George Kooymans in GE would be like replacing Keith Richards in The Stones. I apologise, it was not my intention to hurt anyone's feeling

The Monkees were essentially Brill Building's answer to The Beatles. They had many great songs, of course, mainly written by Brill Building songwriters. The band members themselves wrote some good songs, but not so many. Perhaps this is the reason they are not in the R'n'R Hall Of Fame.

QuoteMarthijn Dutch band, The Golden Earring, 1961 till today True, but the first Golden Earrings record came in 1965. Do the years 13 and 15 year old George and Rinus were rehearsing in George's bedroom really count ? Love Golden Earring, though.

It's holding up really well. Do we have a latter-day classic on our hands? I feel that every time the Stones step outside their comfort zone, it's always sucessful.
