Finally, an advantage for the Dutch OtR-fans.

Last weekend, I had the priviledge to see the band perform three times at the Flevo-festival in Holland. And they brought the new album!! The OtR-records are usually very hard to get hold of here in Holland, but now we're compensated by having the opportunity to buy The Trumpet Child, even before it was (is, actually!) released in America.

I always envy you all, but now you have a chance to envy me! Enjoy it.

I will enjoy my 2 days head-start.

It was so cool to see the band perform live after an absence of 5 years! And I finally got my picture with Linford and Karin. I feel very lucky and blessed.

I had to tell you.

Hey Erik, that's great!

Every time I see the title of this thread, I think "He must be so cramped in there!"

Glad you got to see OtR again Erik, I guess I should think of you when I start feeling jealous of the Ohio folks. Enjoy the new CD!
