    ... and 2 unlimited and all the EDM DJs

    We've had some decent bands in more recent times although most were world famous in the Netherlands without pulling up any trees abroad.

    80s, Ten Sharp who I saw opening for Tears for Fears were good.

    More recently Kane, Kensington, Di-rect, Within Temptation, Krezip.... then we have Floor Jansen who started with After Forever (Dutch Metal band) and then joined Nightwish (Finnish Metal band) after "Forever" gave the lie to their name and disbanded. She's currently doing a solo tour, she opens and closes the set with Nightwish numbers but the vast majority of the show is stuff she's written herself and is far from Metal but IMO very good. Going to see her in Carre, Amsterdam in October. She has a great voice

    I?ve seen Floor/Nightwish a number of times when wearing my metalhead rather than soulboy hat

    Back on topic. Never a great fan of Black Sabbath, back in the late sixties and very early seventies I was much more into Deep Purple - the first proper band I ever saw in 1970 - and King Crimson, but the scenes at Ozzy Osbourne’s funeral procession through Brum yesterday were genuinely moving.
