music news

my crystal ball tells me there will be two new albums by Shakira out this year, one in English and one in Spanish. The only specific date available so far is on Amazon.de -- they cite September 25th as the release date for an as yet un-named album. Instead of the cover design they show this:



which is of course an ancient picture from the famous pirate photoshoot, but, hey, as a spaceholder it's good enough.

So watch this space.

In other music news, Within Temptation have announced an "unplugged and seated" tour in smallish theatres in NL and Belgium next spring (see below). Have booked my ticket already.

Rerun theatre tour 2010!

We have great news! After receiving great responses on our sold out theatre tour in 2008, we decided to do a rerun of this tour, so you'll still have the opportunity to attend these special seated concerts. During these shows we will be playing a lot of our songs in an acoustic version and we'll have special lighting and visual effects. The tour will cover 17 shows in The Netherlands and Belgium.
