I think I can take the next day, Friday, morning off. And bring you the Celestials 7" if you can wait that long.You know, I’m not a huge fan of James Iha solo, but his latest single is actually really not that bad. And seeing my old and new (King of Gloom?) friends in Paradiso (of all places!) is a big bonus.

what job?
[/quote:3kzikunq]
To get that demolished Everlasting Gaze guitar of him signed by the man himself for the person that bought it from eBay. It is being shipped to me as we speak. I’m pretty pumped to get that done! I hope that James Iha is in a good mood to do it though.[/quote:3kzikunq]Lucky you! I wonder how he’ll react when he sees that guitar again!

Free tickets to be won to see James Iha in Amsterdam.

Well, yeah, maybe King… But I can’t make it too early, since I have to work till 6 pm at a customer in Deventer. We will meet Sven (of course) and I just heard from one of my LinkedIn contacts that he will be there also. Why don’t you send your cell phone # to our email (click CONTACT on top here) so I can call you when I arrive in Amsterdam?

Last night was awesome, I’m glad I went! James really is a nice guy.
[/quote:3hj6tx3v]
Absolutely! And it was really nice meeting the other SPfreaks (like you) too!James Iha was rather chatty between the songs, and we al enjoyed this intimite gig (50-75 people only attended, which is maybe not so good for the organization’s financials, but it added definately to the atmosphere). This was the setlist:
be strong now
summer days
gemini
make believe
till next tuesday
dancing barefoot
appetite
new year’s day
to who knows where
speed of love
mayonaise
when you rock n rollAnd we all managed to get some rock ‘n’ roll goodies, this was mine last night.

and did you get that guitar signed Arthur?[/quote:13hi48oc]
Yup, a friend arranged that who met James before the gig. Mission accomplished! Few more anecdotes. We were sitting first row, since we arrived in time. James thanked me for coming all the way from The Hague, and had to laugh when I said "I didn’t order this weather!" (he asked why it was so cold in Amsterdam). Then he asked who ordered the cold weather and King of Gloom, who sat next to me, said he did. Another laugh, also from the audience, when James pointed to him and said "Thanks to this man here it is so cold!"
After the show James mingled with the audience, had a Heineken beer at the bar and signed several items that people had brought to the concert. I even noticed a Siamese Dream album! So I just waited patiently for my turn to have the poster signed. I was rather surprised to be able to obtain that poster (for free) since it was their only copy, hanging outside Bitterzoet in a box on the wall. I asked the bartender, and he said he would take it out for me at the end of the show. While I expected that it would go back in their archives… But no.
Here’s a pic I took with my cell phone during Mayonaise.

Are there any plans for a little meet-up before the show?
