Amy X looking for Netherlands gig(s)

amyx · Joined: Apr 23, 2006 Posts: 9 Location: Oakland CA

Well I just officially joined, finally, and I have no idea whether I'm doing this right... Question

(The little icons and things are cute!) Twisted Evil

While recently searching for myself ( Exclamation

) I discovered Howard's 2005 post asking abt. Netherlands gigs on my behalf. Thank you, Howard! Smile

As it turned out, that gig never worked out. Crying or Very sad

(It was the XperimentL series in Rotterdam.)

But now I've got an actual worked out gig at the Berlin Poetry Festival on June 2 and I am planning to go to the Netherlands as well (will see Rob there!) Wink

.... but I never got it together to find a gig there because I am a lazy hippie and also don't know the first thing abt. booking my own gigs in Europe. Emboldened by Howard's post, I now, at the last minute, reach out to electro-musicians everywhere:

Does anyone know of venues in the Netherlands that would appreciate my music and might book me on short notice, anytime June 5 through June 12?

Thank you for your help! xx

Hi Amyx
welcome to electro-music.com
I guess I am one of the few proud owners (here in Italy) of your "Residue" CD. Great Exclamation

Amy. Great to see you here on the forum. Very Happy

Hope you get some gigs in The Netherlands. There are lots of members from there here.

Dutch people, if you don't know Amy, you are in for a treat. See:

Or, click on search, http://electro-music.com/forum/search.php , and see every topic containing the word Amy.

We even have an Amy X Neuburg forum here. It's not used much, but maybe its time just hasn't arrived, yet. http://electro-music.com/forum/forum-37.html

I would certainly come! Perhaps you could give OCCII in Amsterdam a try. They're a small but very nice and cosy venue focusing on experimental non-commercial music.

Thanks for the comments and suggestions, everyone. I did try OCII but no response. It looks like I may have something at Die Nieuwe Anita and something at the Patronaat cafe. Still working it out. Any opinions about those clubs??

I don't know those venues too well, I'm afraid.
All I know is that Patronaat is in Haarlem, right?
Pity that OCCII don't respond, have you tried both adresses?

Amy's gigs in The Netherlands will be:

Come ye all, it's a treat!

Wow, that's eh, soon!
I think I'll have a go at the Amsterdam one, then.

Well, that was quite incredible. Amazing to see her perform with the drumpad triggers and the looping device.
The venue was not quite what I expected, by the way.
It was not unlike a really cosy living room with a bar. Very Happy

I just purchased her CD from the electro-music store.

Fantastic CD. Well done and engaging.

Highly recommended.
