Queensday Concert 2009 with 2 Unlimited, DJ Jean & Tiesto

May 3rd, 2009 | Posted in Events, Music

Nikki
Idols winner Nikki

One of the strangest days ever: April 30th 2009. What started out as a bright sunshiny happy day quickly turned into the sobering reality of somebody crazy enough to destroy innocent lives for a mindless attack on the royal family. Koninginnedag 2009 will forever be the one with a black lining. However, as one cannot send 150.000 people back home instantly: the show on the Museumplein simply just had to go on. A good show nonetheless but obviously most people lost a bit of their partymood (yours truly included)… A weird day indeed and therefore just a small gallery this time. Full series here (19 photo’s).

Ray & Anita (2 Unlimited)

DJ Jean
Lots of legs… who other than DJ Jean?

DJ Tiesto
The closing tunes of DJ Tiesto.

Respect for the artists that did perform and ofcourse respect for those who felt it was impossible for them.

Radio538 Queensday Concert 2008

May 2nd, 2008 | Posted in Events, Music

While I’m in Scotland enjoying a four day holiday-slash-little-work-thing I couldn’t resist quickly uploading a good selection of the Koniginnedagconcert photo’s from the Museumplein in Amsterdam. This was the fifth or sixth time I photographed this fun event for organizers Radio538, the largest Radiostation in the Netherlands. About 100.000 people visit the concert, the largest one for Queensday.
