This line-up featured two future members of later hitmakers ‘Handsome Poets’, as well as other young talents, later to emerge as Singer-Songwriters.

Notes: Third and final regional musical contest for students from secondary schools in the area, organized as part of promotional activities to boost up the amount of (young) readers for regional daily newspaper AD-Groene Hart. Acts from 6 schools sang, danced or played classical music to win a prize. 'Me & My Sister' won. This line-up featured two more future members of later hitmakers ‘Handsome Poets’, as well as other young talents, later to emerge as Singer-Songwriters. This edition nearly didn’t happen as the newspaper that initiated the previous two editions and also okay-ed this third edition, was taken over by another newspaper, which didn’t like the idea. Since production had already started, cancelling the event would have costed the same amount of money as executing the plan, so the choice was quite obviously simply. Alas this did mean the event to stop after this edition.

Vera, Friday September 9th 2011.

Vera (Rotterdam), live on air.
Recorded: September 9th2011, ‘Gouwestad Radio Studio 2.
Tracks: Lazy People/Kiss & Tell/Bubbles & Bones

Note: To promote her second album ‘Bubbles & Bones’ (releasedate Sept 19th 2011), Vera and Peter dropped by for a third interview and beautifull liveset with acoustic guitar, upright bass and vocals. Concentrated and singing with closed eyes, they performed three songs from the album, inbetween trying to refill the parking meter. This didn’t happen, as it was the annual ‘Goudse Singel Run’, which meant the studio was isolated by 2200 running people from the rest of the market square. Fortunately the meter maids were watching the runners, instead of writing tickets.

Nancy Brick, Friday September 2nd 2011.

Nancy Brick (Gouda/Delft), live on air.
Recorded: September 2nd 2011, ‘Gouwestad Radio Studio 2.
Tracks: The Mountain/Pirate’s Ocean/The Road

Note: Risen from the ashes of ‘Corbelijn’, guitarist Ron Valeri and vocalist Rieneke Batelaan (a.k.a. Amie Maranth, a.k.a. Pien) decided to continue playing as a duo. For over a year they wrote their serene, slightly moody and fragile songs, occasionally playing a livingroom set, to see if tjings work. This night they kicked off trheir official string of performances, with an interview and three small songs, with just an acoustic guitar and a single voice.

Volhardt, Friday August 26th 2011.

Volhardt (Bodegraven), live on air.
Recorded: August 26th 2011, ‘Gouwestad Radio Studio 2.
Tracks: Jij Hoort Bij Mij/Ga Zoek En Beleef/Iedereen Is Van De Wereld

Note: Ofcourse you need to check your gear, especially when others use it as. On the other hand, rule number one is to leave the radiostudio fully functioning, the way you found it, when you came in. Alas, rushing times, so when the show was already running, I discovered a previous user switched of 5 of 6 mike-channels in use, by switching off tipswitches no one had ever used before. Panic and mayhem, but we regripped ourselves during the second attempt of ‘Jij Hoort Bij Mij’, ending the night with quite a nice set of harmony vocals over an acoustic guitar by this Dutch languaged rockband, that is gradualy, but certainly climbing the stairs of succes.

Drugsmokkel, Saturday September 3rd 2011.

Drugsmokkel (Rotterdam/Gouda), 2-track recorded.
Saturday September 3rd 2011, 'de Gonz' Gouda.
Tracks: Intro/Dope Sucks/Let’s Go/Disco Rock ‘n’ Roll/Drive In Liquor Store/9 To 5/Rock ‘n’ Roll Baby/Swingin’ In The Discolights/Paranoia Of Life/Rock ‘n’Roll Junkie/Live For Rock ‘n’ Roll/Drugsmokkel/Joules De La Tourette/Rocking Class Heroes/I Was Made For Rock ‘n’ Roll.

Note: Somewhat chaotic Punk ‘n’ Roll-trio, playing on a 4 band night. As usual, there were problems with the bassguitar, but all in all the set was recorded neatly. The band themselves had grown, as they seem to do with every gig.

Klerkx & The Secret 'In Session', Friday January 21st 2011.

Klerkx & The Secret (Amsterdam), 2-Track recorded.
Fridayday January 21st 2011, ‘Gouwestad Radio Studio 2’ Gouda.
Tracks: People/Back To The Sun/King Of Kings/Lost Love Generation

Note: As the band had live-commitments that night, they dropped by in the early afternoon for an interview and 4 steaming acoustic live tracks from his then forthcoming second CD ‘Undertones’, broadcasted later that night. Klerkx & The Secret were this session Rob Klerkx (Voc/Guitar), Jaromir Fernig (Slide and electric Guitar) and Gideon Ferrero (Acoustic bass). After celebrating Rob’s 40th birthday with pie and non alcoholic bubbles, we set to work and recorded everything in a single take, with the band recording a brandnew track as well.
