(the return of) nachtnetgat(tutti) at De (Roze) Tanker (in Noord)

Welcome to the grand return of NACHTNETGAT, a band initiated by Julie Kurris some 5 and/or 6 years ago which has been on hiatus till upcoming Monday 18 November, due to a.o. a globally spread virus, an in depth multi-year dive into another giant interest of our dear initiator, relocation by some bandmembers to other cities, (is)lands and even one to a continent across a certain ocean starting with an “A”, and, most probably, just people’s busy schedules.
Jasper (who is/was part of the group) and Julie recently met up to catch up about what they´ve been up to in the past coupl’a years, and thought it a grand idea to bring back NACHTNETGAT for a festive Monday evening bash at beloved Roze Tanker in Amsterdam Noord. A few of the original band members will be present, and a lot of wonderful folks are added to the bill. Let’s give extra attention to the few out-of-towners who’ll be gracing the evening with their presence:

Youri Traa from Tilburg, who’ll be making his first ever appearance at de Tanker,
Jaap Blonk from Arnhem, a gladly and fairly regularly-seen Tanker performer over the years.
Lisa Cay Miller from Vancouver, who’s built, and maintains, a strong connection with the Amsterdam scene for at least, if not over, a decade.

(J)as per usual, this large group shall be divided (though not conquered) in smaller groups, but do expect a TUTTI at some point during the evening.

With greetings,
Julie Kurris & Jasper Stadhouders._

_.At the time, Julie wrote this about the project, a text which still holds today:

The rule is clear: we play.
There is a beginning and an end.
We meet.
We are.
Together.
What happens in between surprises.
No rules, no judgment.
All different.
Stepping in the unknown.
Where the schedule stopped running.
We Play.
