DONAUINSELFEST

Jee hoe krijgen jullie dat nou weer voor elkaar! Gewoon onze Hollandse Nits op het hoofdpodium van de Wiener bühne op het Donauinselfest!!
Weet je dat daar gerust 100.000 (of meer) mensen staan zo 's avonds???
Al eens geweest daar? Nou dat is pas een festival, ben er helaas niet bij dit jaar, maar jullie staan gewoon tussen Tozzi, Peter Cornelius en Europe geweldig!
Veel plezier daar!
 
Groeten Nita






BELLEGEM
Ik ben één van de drie vrouwen die na het optreden van The Nits in Bellegem België met die oude foto kwam zwaaien van The Nits met mijn twee vriendinnen Barbara en Sofie en ik.
Wil je aub aan Rob, Henk en Robert-Jan zeggen dat we het heel erg fijn vonden vanavond!
En graag aan Rob de naam The Irrepressibles doorgeven. Het is heel erg fijne muziek en misschien heeft hij er ook wel iets aan :-).
 Vele groeten en leuk om jou en je broer ook nog eens ontmoet te hebben, na al die jaren!

Panorama Man

Samen met de bijna driejarige dochter in de wagen, onderweg naar overal en nergens vraagt ze ineens of de muziek harder mocht voor dat mooie liedje. En nu luisteren we in de wagen al twee dagen naar “panorama Man” van de Nits. Mooie “papa en mama muziek” noemt ze dat, en het applaudiseren na elk liedje heeft ze in Dranouter geleerd

Hallo Nits,
De laatste keer dat ik jullie zag hebben jullie hier allemaal een printje van gekregen, maar toch leek het me wel leuk om er ook eentje in het gastenboek te plaatsen.
 Voor degenen die mij niet kennen sta ik uiterst links.

CLERMONT FERRAND
Bonjour à vous les Nits!!
 
J'ai 24 ans et j'ai connu les Nits il y a moins d'un mois. J'ai tout de suite été
conquis par la simplicité de leurs chansons mais au final tellement précises
et travaillées. Du coup j'ai assisté à leur concert hier soir à Clermont-Ferrand
pour le festival Europavox.
Je n'ai rien à dire de mieux que j'ai été époustouflé de voir à quel point ce groupe
avait la pêche!! Je les trouve encore mieux maintenant qu'à leur début : la voix
a pris de la profondeur c'était absolument magique!!!
Merci à eux pour leur sympathie, leur passion et leur musique!!

PRATTELN
 Hi Nits, 
Thanks for a great show in Pratteln. It's always a pleasure to see and hear you. I'll send you a few fotos from the show.Hope to see you very soon in Switzerland. I use to go to your concerts for more than twenty years now and it's always a wonderful und emotional evening. Your songs are with me for so many years in good and bad times. And its great to feel, that you really like, what you're doing.
 
Lots of love

THE VALLEY OF STONE

Hi Nits and everybody!  
Nu weet U, wie ik ben. Heb ik toch vergeten.....:The first I scanned for you was a wall painting in my room 1988 I made, it doesn't exist anymore, ca 1mx2m.

The second I thought had nothing to do with you(Nits) but...

Somewhere sometime someone sang (and he's still singing)

...I met a woman in the valley of stone
She was painting roses on the walls of her home ...

I'm sure it wasn't a valley of stone (or maybe it was??? can't remember), but she (or me...) even painted roses on the walls (not only on books and paper and wherever she found some cm of place and time)... (ca 1m/1,20)...

Both doesn't exist anymore since the End of 1989.

Everybody's returned well back home?

Schöne Grüße aus dem Süden, 

Ulla

 












TOURBUS

Guten Abend NITS!
 
Was mich nach so vielen Jahren immer wieder begeistert: Songs, die auf Euren "Schallplatten" (Originalton HENK) zunächst von mir eher weniger beachtet werden,
erlebe ich in Euren Konzerten oft als echte "Brillanten". Das macht unendlich viel Spass und ich würde am liebsten gleich am nächsten Tag das Konzert nochmal hören.
Es gibt so viel zu entdecken - da kommen meine Ohren nicht immer gleich mit! Habt Ihr im Tourbus-Kofferraum noch einen Platz für mich und meine 4-köpfige Familie?
 
SEE YOU

RECORDS ON WHEELS

Hello to all you NITS!!

My name is Mike Clasen and I own and operate a music shop in Dundas, Ontario, Canada
which I have run for almost 30 years. I first got turned on to your music when you had a
distribution deal through Sony in North America and I first heard In The Dutch Mountains
through a sales rep at Sony who gave me a tape.
I eventually saw you around the late eighties in a small bar in Toronto, Canada and we met
at that time. I believe there were only 3 of you and one of your wives or girlfriends who
was taking pictures. Do you remember that?
I still remember how great(!) a show it was and I've been a fan ever since. It's been hard to
obtain your releases in the last 10 years or so but one of our suppliers in Montreal Canada
just set up with a distributor in Holland and finally, I can get some of your CD's in again
to sell. I already have the Soap Bubble Box back in stock and have been playing it for weeks.
I'm hoping on getting all your releases back in!
Anyway, from myself personally, many many thanks for your great music over the years, it's been
very special and I hope you continue on making music and stay in good health for many years
to come.
I hope to see you again in concert sometime!
All the best from Canada!

LOUIS XIV
Hi guys!

I heard a song in the radio and bought your last record
q1: what i dont understant is why we hear it only now on the radio when you recorded it in 2007!?!?!?

i hear it loud and 'en boucle' (continuously) and i like it more & more: it's always like that with good records, no ?

q2: is Henk Hofstede french ? bcs he says "verdun" like a french and quatorze (not quatorzé) nearly like a french
by the way, have u seen where Louis XIV was born in Saint-Germain-en-Laye (nearby where i leave), west of paris? 
it's in the 'pavillon Henri IV' which replaces the 'Chateau Neuf' which was a wonderful castle (with lot of wonders)
built by Henri IV (gran father of louis XIV) bcs he didnt like the big castle which is not comfortable and difficult to warm
the 'chateau Neuf' has been destroyed by the times and the wars, BUT, there is ONE room still alive and by CHANCE,
it is the room where Louis WIV was born !!! it is "classé", so no one touched at it, so there are some cracks, 
some plasters are missing ... but there R beautiful paints, lovery flooring, ceiling, ........
so beautiful place, pianos, landscape, big room to invite people for lunch or for muzik ? that i don't know ... i have to ask them
it would be worth while

q3: do u come soon to paris or do i have to go to Amsterdam to hear u?

nota: the flowers R everywhere, in Bagatelle (west of paris) - very beautiful ancient roses - and u have tulips (no?)

kind regards
Frederique Girard 

PS: R U on Facebook?

SPREEKBEURT

Hallo Henk Robert Jan en Rob. 

Ik mijn spreekbeurt over jullie gehouden.
En zo als beloofd in de schouwburg in Uden zou ik het punt door geven.
Nou de klas vond het interessant en ik heb een 9!!!

Ik zou graag nog een keer met mijn vader naar een optreden van jullie in Parijs willen.
Ik hoop dat op jullie site snel staat waneer jullie daar weer optreden.

Groetjes, David Horsting (10 jaar)

PARADISO

thank you so much for your paradiso concert on 20th of december 2009; it was terrific!
also the weather was; we only reached amsterdam in time, because we came there one day earlier; friends of us from Germany weren´t that lucky; their train ended at the Dutch border.
your music accompanies me since the first time I saw you in Soucht/F (I guess in 1991). keep keepin´on!


if you ever need a support band in our region(South-West of Germany or Luxembourg) contact us!
tot ziens!
