I don't like to rate my own recordings: it's subjective, my "very good" may be somebody else's "average".
By uploading a few samples in the comments potential downloaders can decide for themselves
whether a show is good enough or interesting enough to grab.

Having said this, for once I want to make an exception: a combination of the good sound in
the venue ( Lucinda mentions it a few times),the R9 and the perfect spot make that I am very satisfied with the result.
It's definitely one of the best audience recordings I made.

Being part of a festival Lucinda could only play for 75 minutes. People were dissapointed she only did one song after
the break, while she promised to do three songs. If you listen to the recording you can hear she said "I think we have time
for three more songs after the break". "I think" is not the same as a promise: I can imagine when you're on stage you don't know exactly
how much time you have left, that will become clear during the break.

Two children were standing in the front row with their parents and Lucinda was so sweet to them, she adressed them personally
one more than one occasion, even promising them to watch the f*** word, but she added the violance on television children
are exposed to is much worse.

When you listen to the intrduction to Passionate Kisses it will become clear why I have named this show
"Washing the dishes in Haarlem".
