It was about time that the TG-Dutchies got together, so today we finally did and of course it was a blast!
This is 'Love is all around', wich is a Troggs song, but we (Willem and Vanessa) thought it would be fun to do the R.E.M-version on guitar and bassguitar, so here it is, hope you enjoy!
Cheers
Willem and Vanessa
p.s. To Anton: It was a pity you weren't able to make it, but we sure hope you will join us the next time, take care!
PLEASE NOTE: If video was recently uploaded it will not work yet. YouTube will need a little more time to get the video ready. Please check back again soon.

Willem & Vanessa,
Man, that's what music is all about right there! SUPERFUN. You guys did great! That was like peanut butter and
jelly...the way you two gelled together!
(Or is P. B. & J. mainly an American deal? if so, please excuse the expression.)
Seriously, guys what a treat! Was I the only one that couldn't stop thinking about a movie called "Love Actually"?
(Where this song is prominently featured.)
What is your band name? I have taken the liberty of coming up with some really bad ones for you:
1.) "Double Dutch" (For when you tour outside of Holland)
2.) "V. W. Micro Band (It is like the iconic hippie van. Plus, it stands for Vanessa and Willem; while referring to the
size of your band.

Magic you guys! Great to see you get together and that was a fun sond which I had no idea was from R.E.M. although I know the song couldn't be more well known!
Duh! You learn something new every day. Loved all the elements to that with the vocals bass and rhythm guitar. Great job!

Wow, Willem and Vanessa ... How much fun was that? You guys really made my day ... Great idea to add the bass. I don't see the acoustic bass often. Thanks so much for once again reminding me how much fun this can be. Will there be more?
