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 from 2 Unlimited, performing live again after 13 years!

Lots of legs… who other than DJ Jean?

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.

Milow…
