Unbelievable! The Dutch team made it to the World Cup finals!!! The last time that happened was 32 years ago
Opponent will be Spain or Germany. Personally I hope it will be Germany.
This Sunday the finals will be played. I am to perform at a large club on a touristic island here in the Netherlands. There will be a lot of Germans and Dutch folks at that gig...I sure am looking forward to the game and the gig!!!

I just want to see Germany as an oponant in the finals. That would be an awsome game. Check this comercial and this comercial and you'll know why we want Germany in the finals


As far as I'm concerned either Germany or Spain are allowed one more victory in this World Cup: the one either of them needs to make it to the finals

Congrats to the Dutch team for making the finals and, even more, congrats to you for scoring a fun gig. However, this old hillbilly doesn't quite understand the first commercial. Of course, I think it's fantastic that the walls are happy but..... :>) Maybe you can explain it to me.


Later,
Jim


I'd be completely happy if I had just one more guitar.

To apreciate this one you need to know Derek Ogilvie who claims he can read babies minds and claims to be able to communicate with ghosts. He is the one parodied by the "room-whisperer".
Orange is the national color of the Netherlands, and therefor the color our team (known as "Oranje") wears.
The one color "Die Mannshaft" (the German team) doesn't want to see in their dressing room is....orange!

I will be watching and rooting for the “Oranje”!

Of course the sound will be off because I can not stand those dam Vuvuzelas
They have ruined this World Cup, at least for me

Lots of horn beeping and oranje flags and shirts paraded downtown yesterday at 1600 when the Dutch won. The Dutch club was full, lineup out the door. They have a band I have sat in on, the Tomatoe Soup Band. They want be back to play tuba, maybe in September. I also play, um um (looks furtively around) accordion, in said band once in a while. Liechtensteiner Polka ya ya anyone? Good LUCK on Sunday.

Would have LOVED a Holland vs. Germany finals! Well, now you have to beat Spain. They looked good against Germany (we have to work for a third place finish now).

Since Germany is "out", I'll be cheering on the Dutch neighbors!!!

Cheers,
Mike

Ugly/boring game, but Spain was clearly better. Most deserving team won IMHO.

In a fantastic and tantalizing game, dominated by our wonderful Dutch team, our national heroes won a glorious silver medal in the World Cup finals. The fame of Oranje and our victorious nation will be envied true-out the world.
The treacherous and vicious Spanish team also competed for the title.












All kidding aside. The better team won. Spain is the deserved World Champion.

I had to make some extra effort to make the gig a success, though. Most people had to reset before they could enjoy the party.....

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!

If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.

A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."

"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."

"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
