EPILOGUE

I took the first couple of hours off from work, 1: Cuz I couldn`t get my ass out of bed 2: I had to get this off my chest.

Man this was an experience to remember I pictured it that it would be cool but not so cool as this! The first 2 days I personally had a slow start due to some thing in my head, but being in a band really helps to get stuff like that out in the open and confronting your feelings. It`s funny that being on the road with your band and having to leave one of our bandmates at home makes u aware that there is something missing from the whole picture.
And with the knowledge that there is going to be a big change after the tour within the band doesn`t make it any easier... But the wind of change has created a tornado in victimizer town boys `n girls!!!!! We will go on as planned, a couple of more shows, a baby shower or 2 and in the new year we will march to HARROW studio to record our 4 track EP in this constellation! FUCK YEAH!

Overall tour gratitude goes out to:

Tinkabella for giving us her car ( German plates but who cares ;-) )
Coffee in general, Aldi energy drink ( 5 trays), winston smokes, Iza for giving us coffee every morning and forcing us to eat ;-), Redemption song by Bob marley ( done by Mr. Neil Gordon ), My wife for opening the door at 3 AM after me forgetting my keys, all our friends and fam. for their love and support at the show all over Holland, Sin- Circus ( Ti amo ) Gilo, Morning cartoons, late at night classics on Vh1, sunshine, the gass stations( clean up your restrooms man this is Holland for christsake!!), LEGO. And last but not least all the fans and new fans, we know who u are and we will c u again on our next tour!

LAST DAY *PARKHOF ALKMAAR*

HEAVY METAL HEAVEN!

The most easy place to get to so far! Beautiful building ( from the outside) metal from the inside, man the history ... Posterz from way way back, un-touched! Gorilla biscuits world tour 91 stuff like that, looked like a museum man.
There couldn`t be a better place to end the tour here. Everybody on the tour immediately got a vibe from the atmosphere that was oozing in there.
The whole crew for Parkhof was super cool, Mathijs, Maurice, Niels, dude with the Wolfpack shirt all really relaxed ones.
We forgot to put the carpet on the stage for the drumkit so we nailed it to tha wooden floor on stage, as far back I can remember that was a first.
We played a killer show in the 45 min that were given to us, and the handful of people gave us their respect, no matter how many people there are, they are there to see a rock show, so we gave it to them like every night! ( maybe just a little extra due to the fact it was our last night on tour).

Thx goes out to the following;
Patrick at Parkhof for booking tha show in 2 dayz time ( awesome dude!)
Mathijs for being really cool `bout giving us food and all the beerz we could handle! ( next year wolfest!)
Maybe one of the oldest fans of victimizer (dude with da one tooth) for coming all the way to Parkhof to support us and the other bands.
Dude with the suffocation shirt for a good talk and giving us respect ( HARDCORE FUCKING RULES 25 TA LIFE IS DA BEST HA HA HA ;-) )

We will remember u all....

DAY 8 *DB`S STUDIO UTRECHT*

AHH! MY FELLOW HEADBANGERZZ.

No sas, it not a squatters place! Looked like it doh! Anyway.... Utrecht is a tough crowd to play for.. but they are honest, and with that said we got some good response from them, not many people but enough to be loud between the songs. Probably the most disgusting backstage we`ve ever seen, but fuck it, that`s rock n roll for ya! We are no rockstars, we are thankful that we can play in any kinda town! Utrecht we wil c u again.....

Thx goes out to;
Mary 4 making tha map to get there!
Sander 4 making flyerz and bothering people to go the the show!
Andre for booking the show!
Siko 4 giving me Andre`s phone number ;-)

DAY 7 *MERLEYN NIJMEGEN*





AMAZING!

Nijmegen was insane!! When we got the mail from Herman at Merleyn he told me they could fit 150 people inside... it`s safe to say we made the headcount! The crowd was fucking killer! Big sing-alongs, moshin, thrashin headbanging, stagediving, all is fare in war they say, and it was a warzone in there. This is what we live for! Nijmegen we thank u so much for the support for all the bands on the tour. At the beginning of the tour we said that if Chris was there at the earlier show that it would be the best show ever... forget that!! THIS WAS THE BEST SHOW EVER due to the fact that Chris took the risk even with his baby coming at any second to play the show with us AS ONE!

Our respect goes out to:
All our friends and victim family who came from far away to see the show, Herman for booking the gig, all at Merleyn, MARI!!!! for reporting for duty and create a killer sound, without him we would not have played the show that we did, My uncle and father for driving crosscountry to support us...... u are all appreciated!

From our hearts... Thx..

DAY 6 *SIMPLON GRONINGEN*

He fuckerzz!

Well well well... here we are again! Some say Holland is a small country... They never been to Groningen if u ask me! A hell of a ride but I must say worth every mile.
Simplon is a kick ass venue to play, let that be known.
For a night with non local bands there was a good crowd present, and they also were fuckin`loud as hell. All the bands played a good show, sound was good, food was amazing, drinx were free..
All and all how it`s supposed 2 be!

Our thx goes out 2:
Nick for booking the show, Lieke for helping us out and Peter from MG=MW ( also without a bassplayer) for a good opening act and the good conversation after the show we will c eachother again at Bolwerk or (and) Nijmegen.

New tour word:
NIXX!

2nite we play our hometown NIJMEGEN at Merleyn we will c u there friends!
