who are the noodzaak?

news

In the car on our way to Atlanta the radio announces a Roy Orbison concert in Atlanta two days later.
In Europe nothing was heard from him for the last decade.

The middle aged Americans in the open air theatre start the evening with a big picnic, which is quite remarquable for us European tourists.
But the real surprise comes when "The Big O" walks on stage while his band already started the "Dum, dum, dum, dum, dee, dee, wah."

Not affected by anything at all the nightingale brings his set of unique hits. Orbison's singing still matches the level from his glory days. And to hear these songs performed live makes them sound three times as good.

The encore is nothing more than an extra verse to "It's over". But for us the show isn't over yet. Together with a few ladies from Tennessee we manage to get an autograph.

Two years later the world sees the comeback from Roy Orbison. Only to loose him forever shortly after. God may have his soul.
