who are the noodzaak?

noodzaak-
news

I was eleven years old and staying at my aunt in faraway Utrecht for the holidays.

After some serious discussions I was allowed to join my eighteen year old niece to an open air festival nearby.

Without any doubt I was by far the youngest person in the audience, and the only one in shorts (to my shame).

My niece and her longhaired friends hardly paid any attention to me. So I sneaked right to the front of the stage, where I had a good view on Shocking Blue singer Mariska Veres' (at that time still) skinny legs.

After Shocking Blue came Brainbox, followed by a band called Lace, which at that time had a big hit with the song "I'm a gambler".

Fleetwood Mac - still with Peter Green - closed the festival.

A unique experience for an eleven year old kid. Two months later I bought my first single; from Fleetwood Mac of course.
