  • NSJ 2008: Sidsel Endresen+Jan Bang/ Erika Stucky (Suicidal yodels)

    So at last I got a taste of North Sea Jazz. Always thought it was beyond my budget to go. But now that I´ve finally attended the Sunday, I can see myself trying to go every year, and not for just one day like this year, but at least for two. It feels as if I´m like the last (Dutch citizen) to have found out about this great festival.. It sure helped that I didn´t have to pay the ticket myself, but I think I would´ve attended this edition anyhow.

    When this year's line-up was announced I saw some stuff which I liked, maybe somewhat related to jazz but not really jazz itself, so I told my dad that if he went to the final day I'd go with him. And so we went :)

    First of all we went to see Alicia Keys. Back when I was young I sort of liked her music, something which never really turned to hate. My father even bought her first cd and was probably more excited to see her than me. Yet I was the one standing somewhere near the front. My dad stood somewhere near the sounds guys (in the middle of the hall), because "he's too old for all that".
    Surprisingly Alicia Keys turned out to be really great live, far exceeding my expectations. …
