Topic: Introducing... Snooker!

Hi all,

I'm a 43 year old guy from Utrecht, Netherlands. Married and father of a boy (7) and a girl (4).

Last week I experienced Joe Bonamassa live for the very first time, and well... see my post in the "Reviews" section of this forum. smile

Hi Snooker

Welcome to the forum.

I hope you enjoy the banter here as they are a great bunch of guy's and girl's

Ive met a few from Holland who are into blues on other sites, it must be quite popular over there?.

All the best

Graeme.  smile

Blues is the spice of life, Live it, Love it, Feel it, Play it.

Re: Introducing... Snooker!

Hi Snooker and welcome to the forum. I read your comments on the Utrecht show. No need to apologise for not having heard of Joe, it happens a lot. You've found him now and you're loving it that's the main thing. Enjoy it and spread the word.

Regards  .....Tripsy smile

Re: Introducing... Snooker!

Welcome Snooker!

I defy anyone who sees Joe live not to become an instant and life-long fan.  There's nothing like seeing him live for the first time... except the second time, and the third time and... wink wink

Hope you enjoy the forum smile

If I'm alive when I'm 99 I'm still gonna be saying, "Remember 4th May 2009 when we saw Joe at the RAH... what a night that was!"

Re: Introducing... Snooker!

Welkom nieuwe Bonavriend! Je had helemaal gelijk over die vreemde kerel met zijn vreemd accent uit de Achterhoek! big_smile Dat was onze goede vriend Andre, die vast wel zo direct hier zal verschijnen.

You'll find out what a great place this is if you stick around.....by the way, I'm George, just 60, from Amsterdam - West Ham, Ajax and Joe. cool

RIP Iron Man

Rock On and keep the Faith

Re: Introducing... Snooker!

Hi Snooker and welcome to the forum. You happen to live in an area that is very Joe friendly!! BluesRock friendly even. I'm glad you found your way here. That will lead to your meeting some of the wonderful Bonabuddies there. That will lead to great music, of course!  Cathy

Re: Introducing... Snooker!

Hallo Snooker,
Welkom op dit prachtige forum. Zit er zelf al een jaar of 4 op en ontzettend leuk. Aardige mensen die veel verstand van muziek hebben, veel tips over andere bands e.d.
Veel mensen leren kennen en ook ontmoet, inclusief Joe en alle mensen erom heen.
Had je al gelezen dat Joe op mijn school komt op 4 december? Te gek he??

Die mensen uit het oosten zijn Rudi, Johan en ondergetekende, wij praten altijd dialect met elkaar. Vandaar!
Wil je meer weten, kunt altijd emailen, heb veel Joe materiaal beschikbaar. Geen kopieen van nog leverbare CD's en DVD's.

Hope you stay and keep posting!

Groeten Andre Wittebroek

Welcome Snooker, another fan from the Netherlands.

Now tell me, is 'Snooker' your hobby or a subtle reference to your famously hilly homeland ?

No Ordinary Joe

Re: Introducing... Snooker!

Thanks for the warm welcome all!

@ André: Yes, I read that Joe's gonna perform at the highschool where you work! How cool is that!! Do your pupils realize how privileged they are??? Hell, all we got when I was in highschool were some sorry *ss gospel singers from the neighbouring village smile I'm green with envy!!! big_smile

As for the Joe material: I bought myself "Sloe Gin", "Live at nowhere in particular" and the RockPalast DVD so I'll be fine for the next few days. I also found the torrent part of this forum so I may download some live material. Any suggestions are welcome.

@ Crossroads: Yes, snooker is indeed my hobby. smile

@ Amsterhammer: West Ham and Ajax? Ow well... nobody's perfect! Forza Utreg! wink

@ Marco: great pics of the Utrecht gig on your magazine site! Very well done!
