Holland TDPRI - let's have a drink or something

jhundt · November 23rd, 2005, 12:18 PM

OK, so the summer jam didn't work out. Now it's coming into winter and we still haven't got together. I know it's difficult to organize a jam, but maybe we could all just meet up somewhere, have a beer and talk Tele's. We could call it the NL-TDPRI Christmas party....

natsteel · November 25th, 2005, 04:54 AM

Good idea jhundt, I'm in

TwinReverb · November 25th, 2005, 05:01 AM

Great idea. I wouldn't mind meeting some of you dutch Tele huggers ;-)

cheers
Erik

PS Belgian beer is a must!

a 15 year old Ben Nevis would surtainly be appreciated ...

I second that. I was born in Duisburg so I'm often round that way. Any chance of meeting in Nijmegen? :D

jhundt · November 25th, 2005, 11:16 AM

who can suggest a nice meeting place? A gezellig klein bartje or bij iemand t'huis?

natsteel · November 25th, 2005, 11:51 AM

I wouldn't mind traveling (by train) to Nijmegen -
guezzzzzzz itzzzzz (hick .....chearzzzzz... oops.... burp.......) will notzzzzz be wizzzzzze to gozzzzz by carzzzzzzzz ..... burp.......

If this means our German friends can join the table (counter) I'll gladly pick a place near the German border - and Nijmegen is a good option.
Lots of beer there toooooooooooo ...
merry clismazzzzzzzz... oops .... burp....... merry christmas

vanschooenhoven..... but I don't think a greyhound will get me there

Oster · November 25th, 2005, 01:17 PM

I'm not Dutch but my wife's family is and I have to say that you Dutch are a freindly bunch - always planning a TDPRI get together. It's heart-warming to see.

I'll go get myself a Leffe anyway! :)

Fuzzyhead · November 25th, 2005, 01:39 PM

Hey, natsteel! That's cool. I wouldn't mind meeting up somewhere else though. As long as there's plenty of Kerstbok around... :D

Hollandcaster · November 25th, 2005, 03:45 PM

Great idea!

Jam is not neccesary, place doesnt matter, I'm just a little busy 'round those times, so when it's possible (data please) count me in!

Grtz. Stephan

eddiewagner · November 26th, 2005, 08:23 AM

if we could arrange something in nimjmegen that would be great! yes a christmas-telemeeting would be wonderful. and i would bring a guitar and my little microcube and batteries! and we could take pictures and everything and practice dutch!

natsteel · November 29th, 2005, 12:34 PM

It has bin snowing lately in Holland and parts of Germany - lots of it ...
and it seems this thread is sinckin in it ....
so I took a shovel and dug it up ....

Since jhundt has started this party idea guess he is the one to pick a place - from there whe can pick a date ...
how does that sound .... like your mom...? sorry ... but moms do know how to organize .... !

I'm all ears ....

Fuzzyhead · November 29th, 2005, 01:41 PM

Yup. I second the dog! :D

jhundt · November 30th, 2005, 03:20 PM

sorry boys, I'm the world's worst arranger of social functions. I leave all that stuff to the missus. But I like to get together with friends and Tele players whenever possible, so:

I just saw a post from Vincent about arranging a winter jam for sometime in January or February. Maybe we should all work together on that idea? Check out his post (I would put a link here, but I don't know how).

Fuzzyhead · November 30th, 2005, 04:39 PM

Vunz · November 30th, 2005, 05:45 PM

like a good idea. I'll go anywhere if there's bear involved.
I totally missed this thread when I started the Jam one.
Seems the only organizing that must be done is picking a time and place....

Vincent

undafonk · December 1st, 2005, 05:10 AM

(and Germans, and expat Americans, and whatnot ...)

Like Vincent said, the idea is for a jam in Jan/February. But I'm always bait for a nice cool drink! Nijmegen was suggested, which is fine with me. Since Jon says he is not too good at keeping the appointment calender, let me try and suggest a date: maybe Wednesday December 28th (this is under the assumption that most people will not be working between X-mas and New Year).

Who knows a nice bar?

Vunz · December 1st, 2005, 05:16 AM

I am not at work between christmas and newyear. But, I'm off for a couple of days to france (get me some wine) so I wont be able to make it, unless we pick a bar in Beaune.... So have fun, I will be missed :D

Vincent

jhundt · December 1st, 2005, 02:34 PM

France sounds like fun... we can all ride along with Vincent and stop at the first bar we see. Or maybe somewhere else... where the heck is Nijmegen - I have to get out my road map and check this out... December 28 sounds good, if we can get a few people together. If we can't get a few TDPRIers together - WE SUCK!

Hollandcaster · December 1st, 2005, 03:03 PM

28th December=No problem!

Nijmegen is okay with me!

Just 80-something kilometers from your place Jon, south of Arnhem, very close to Kleve, which is why it is so convenient for our German TDPRI brothers to visit.

Although I also like that idea of shacking up with Vincent in France

So far, we've got jhundt, natsteel, Hollandcaster, teletin and eddiewagner.

Let me call a friend and try to find a good bar in Nijmegen; it's anice little university town, lots of 'brown bars' (bruine kroegen), and also some modern grand café type of establishments ...

Fuzzyhead · December 2nd, 2005, 08:45 AM

Great... Now you plan a meeting in Nijmegen because I suggested that but I will actually be in Zeeland over the holidays with my parents. Damn!
