The Streets Pukkelpop 2019

Hasselt, Belgium, 17 August 2019

I asked Tim for help, but he told us that festivals are difficult this time.

June 9th

I asked Ozzy if there is another festival where we can go to? Like Germany?! We checked the dates and the Germany gigs were the best options but at the same time, not a very good option.

The Streets Lowlands festival 2019

Biddinghuizen, The Netherlands, 16 August 2019

I really really really want to go to Lowlands. Hopefully Mike or Tim can help me and Ozzy out. Tickets are very expensive, if you only want to see 1 band. And for Lowlands you can’t buy day tickets, only weekend tickets. I don’t want to go a whole weekend. I only want to go 1 hour.

Mike Skinner Bielefeld 2017

Bielefeld, Germany, 4 November 2017

Máté told me that Mike and Dave would come to Bielefeld on November 4th 2017. OZZY!!!!!!! We have to go!!!!! Can we go? Ozzy and I are going. It’s easy because it’s a Saturday. Mark will take care of Roos. Thanks again Máté for letting me know. What to do without you?!

Mike Skinner Stuttgart 2016

Stuttgart, Germany, 5 November 2016

Mark was supposed to drop me off at the train station but he was running with my brother still. I dropped myself off by car, Mark would pick it up later. Roos stayed with my mum.

At 1:30 I took the train from Hillegom to Rotterdam. About an hour later I arrived there. I bought myself and Ozzy a Starbucks. Then I left the station to Ozzy’s car. Oz was waiting for me.

Mike Skinner Cologne 2014

Cologne, Germany, 26 April 2014

Máté told me that Mike would be playing in Cologne. I’ve seen Mike there 2 years ago. It’s only 2 ½ hours drive.

Ozzy and I are going but it’s the same day as Kingsday in Holland. It’s the birthday of our king we’re celebrating. His actual birthday is on April 27th but that is a Sunday this year, and out of respect for people who go to church on a Sunday they don’t celebrate on Sunday’s, they celebrate it that year on a Saturday instead. That’s the case this year. We only have a king since April 30th 2013. he took over the throne from his mum (Game of Thrones). We used to celebrate Queensday on April 30th, this year the date changed. I need to wear orange, otherwise I’ll look stupid in Amsterdam. That means I will have to wear orange to Mike’s gig too. I am not going home first.  Sorry lovely German people.

Mike Skinner London 2014

London, England, 18 April 2014

Monique and I are going to London for the weekend. To go shopping. It’s our ladies weekend, as our men are on a lads weekend in Budapest. Flight and hotel were already booked.

Then Moricz Mate told me that Mike will be playing in London in The Old Queens Head on April 18th. While I was updating my website, I discovered that we would be in London as well. I was very excited, I’m going.

The D.O.T. Greenville Festival 2013

Paaren im Glien, Germany, 26 July 2013

July 24th, 2013

It’s my birthday. I celebrated it for my friends and family with a BBQ in my mum’s garden last Saturday. Her house was packed, loved it but didn’t expect it. Usually everybody is always on a holiday, this time nobody was. Everybody who was invited came over. This weekend I’ll celebrate it with The D.O.T.

Mike Skinner E-Werk Festival 2012

Cologne, Germany, 3 March 2012

My mate Ozzy and I went to the opening of the first official Apple Store in Amsterdam. In Holland we had a few Mac Houses and iCentres, but no Apple Store yet. Now we do, anyways we joined a queue of about 4000 people at 9:50am. The doors opened at 10 and after waiting for 1 ½ hour (11:30am) we got in, we got a lovely orange t-shirt, nice for queensday people said, but it’s my 4th orange t-shirt, so I have enough – nice t-shirt to sleep in! I bought a docking station for my iPhone.

The Streets Big Reunion Festival 2011

Skegness, England, 26 November 2011

I am going to the very last gig of The Streets at Big Reunion, the 2nd weekend. It will be my 35th Streets gig but the last one. I am not too sad, because I am very excited about whatever Mike is going to do next.

The Streets Open Source Festival 2009

Dusseldorf, Germany, July 25^th 2009

Ozzy & I went from Bloemendaal to Dusseldorf early in the morning to go to a camping and set up the tent. We found the Strandbad Nord Unterbacher camping, we set up the tent and it started raining a lot. We still had to bring in our sleeping stuff. Oh well after a few minutes it was dry again and the sun was shining. So we could finish it. In the meanwhile, I had contact with Laurence, She let me know that Laurie wouldn’t join us as she didn’t feel too well, Laurence was coming alone. At about 1pm we arrived at the festival, and I text Laurence to let her know where we were.
