Peter Visser & me backstage @ the big record fair in the Brabanthallen in Den Bosch last Saturday

I have not shut up about this band since hearing them for the first time and I am absolutely thrilled that this is a thing! 4 Bettie Serveert shows from 1993-2003. Huge bucket list band for me. I've never managed to see them live, so I'll be devouring these!

Peter & Carol played at the big record fair in the Brabanthallen in Den Bosch on Sat April 11th

That would be fun! I remember doing a show with Love Battery and Come at the First Avenue, probably around 1993, which was pretty cool

We (Bettie Serveert) still have a lot of fond memories of playing at this awesome club and also at the 7th St. Entry

a ticket (yellow/beige) of a concert of the bands Bettie Serveert, Come & Dinosaur Jr at the venue Barrowlands in Glasgow on 20 Feb 1993.

33 years ago today we supported Come & Dinosaur Jr @ Barrowlands in Glasgow. During their shows, we stood at the side of the stage watching them, as they did while we were playing. It was an awesome night!
(btw, I found this ticket online, if this belongs to you, please let me know?)
