Hello. I was one of the few lucky ones to see Meat for this first time in concert in Holland. That was in Drachten back in 1988. One year later he performed in Slagharen en Alkmaar. I was there too and met Meat after the show in his tourbus!!!
I've met a few fans at those concerts, some of whom I still have contact with (Bart!). It would be great to get in touch with people who were also at one of those concerts in Holland. Please make yourself heard!!

By the way: the best of tour was in april 1999. two dates, with 2 weeks in between. the first show was very very very great. The second was just great.

the first or second concert or both? In the front? then we must have seen eachother. i was the bald one. for me it was so wonderful: a sold out concert in Ahoy, 10,000 people. Finally he was famous again in Holland!!!

No, unfortunately I couldn't get arena tickets that time, (pre-internet, so I found out about the concert too late). So I had bad seats and asked the security guy if I could stand at the first level, which was okay. But it's not the same as being in arena, first row.

Well, in 1999 he was great. the first show he was really funny and he enjoyed it so much that he came back tot do a medley. i remember that he said during the unplugged songs that it was Pearl's birthday and then 10,000 people started to sing "happy birthday". It was quit funny. the first night was a sell out. the second night there were places left on the second ring. In fact it was amazing that there were so many people cause The best of cd was not a best seller in Holland.
i was not there at NOTP. Was it great?
