About Me

Naaldwijk local time.

********** November 9 - DVD launch Rob Orlemans & Half Past Midnight. Your Host for this evening: Frankie Bluescruiser. Yeah, from time to time I do some stage announcements too. Tis good fun this hosting and introducing stuff. ******************************************************** I like Bluesmusic a lot, but I'm not really crazy about 6-ties and 7-ties music. The worst are all these tribute bands. I do however like to drink an occasional beer too many, one habit I kept from those days. I quit smoking in the summer of 2005, and I donot feel like restarting. Ha, I even opened a savingsaccount and drop the money I used to let go up in smoke every month. Numbers are rising fast, haha! And one other good thing: I got the very best job in the world. ************ In the photocollages there's pictures of musicians, bands, Holland, friends, art, partytime, and a few of the many gardens I made during the years. If you wanna see some more of my gardenwork - with text in Dutch but also a number of photographs - have a look at www.natuurtuinen.nl

My Interests

mainly music, but I am also interested in people in general. Most of 'm, this people that is, are good fun having a conversation with.

I'd like to meet:

Most people here on MySpace seem friendly enough. Would be fun to have a party with all of them, ha! ******************************** I'd like you all to meet my friend Buddy. Find him between my top friends. He wears a green sweater. Visit his site, have fun with his adventures and read all his cartoons. ************************************ I delete friends from time to time. I see accounts that have 10's of thousands of friends. Tis impossible to stay in contact with so many people. I therefor delete friends that I never have any contact with. The ones that are on my friendslist now are all people I regularly write with, or I'm a fan of their music (haha, yes such strange things happen too.....) So, now you know why I keep dropping from 400 friends to 200&some all the time.
****************************************** And here another Jethro Tull video. Not too old but still reasonably early work. I love it.

Music:

Blues in general. Right now I listen to the Headbanging Trance Music produced by Linda and her Count, also known as Slippery When Wet. So dear listener, Hit the button of my profile song, turn your volumebutton to the far right, sit back, and drift away on the......, oh what the...., tis just great sounds, love it!! Approved by Frankie. And if you want to hear some more, visit their myspace to find some songs and also links to some musicsites where their music can be bought. Then there's the likes of Flogging Molly, 5 Shots O'Whiskey, and that's only 2 of a number of bands in my friendslist that play music that is not directly related to downhome blues but still very much worth listening to.

Heroes:

I donot think there are any heroes.So I will use this space to introduce some, to me, important Dutch sites. International News *** Dutch and Belgian agenda *** International Blueslinks *** and last but not least: The very best Internet Blues Radio. Check these sites out and have fun, they're Bluesproof and fully approved by Bluescruisers - Holland! www.janpet.web-log.nl/ www.bluesagenda.web-log.nl/www.blueslinks.nl/www.blueears.co m/

adopt your own virtual pet!Use your mousepointer to tickle Stekeltjes fancy, lol. Make him jump high and play ball, ha, tis fun! (No worries, you cannot hurt him, the pinned bastard is only virtual. What you can do is feed him a strawberry. Pick it up with your mousepointer en give it to him. He loves strawberries. No strawberry in sight? Click "More", and there you go!)
