greetings from krommenie saturday 14 january 2006

well well well!!! welcome friends. here's my first ever missive on this website thingy we have setup (or rather our good friend Hedwig in Groningen setup).

i have 20 minutes before i have to leave the house. THE BENT MOUSTACHE play their first show of 2006 tonight and their first show with the following lineup: Ajay, Pim and Wilf. Interestingly enough, this is the first show we have done together since the summer of 2005 in New Orelans...which turned out to be Donkey's last ever show. Seeing as The Bent Moustache is actually Donkey in disguise, we have had to wait a long time to play again.

BUT, we are ready and are really looking forward to whatever 2006 may bring. Our new 7 inch single is released on Monday 16 January (VINYL folks VINYL!!!) and tonight is a celebration of that fact. We play at De Groote Weiver in Krommenie, a cultural oasis in these parts but with not many months left to exist - the local council are once again blind to the service offered to young and old alike in the community and have seen to it that any form of cultural enterprise in this area be stamped out!

We will have several guests onstage with us during the course of the evening and many friends in attandance. I will try and post some photos of the evening next time round..

sorry for this staggered post, but it will get more exciting once i become the master of the blog!!!

peace
ajay
