Hey all,
someone posted a message on the Dutch version of myspace called Hyves, saying that DANKO JONES will play an acoustic set in record store Fame, Amsterdam on April 24th @ 16:00. There will also be a signing session.. ;D ;D ;D
Is this true or not??

Wow ...this acoustic thing sounds cool! Oh, I'd be going to this if I'd managed to get a ticket for the Paradiso gig, ...I'd tried hard to save up enough cash to get over there, and needed to renew my passport too, but in the meantime the gig sold out anyway. If I'd known about this acoustic thing a bit more in advance, however, I would have jumped at the chance to come over anyway, just to see a really different kind of Danko show and hang out with some boardies! It's gonna be a great double Danko delight ;D... have a great time everyone..... and please, someone take a camcorder?!!

Wow, this was a very cool event...My girlfriend and I turned up half an hour before and when the guys arrived, there was a crowd of about 30 people (I think that there would be more people when this was announced earlier) The band played an acoustic set, which contained 4 songs from NEVER TOO LOUD: - Sugar High - City Streets - Take Me Home - Still In Highschool It was really special to watch, THNX GUYS!!!! Afterwards, there was a signing session and I totally forgot to bring something to sign with me (we had to check in @ the hotel earlier that day, so at home I worried about NOT to forget my ID and concert tickets.. ), so I "borrowed" the record store's flyer for this event, which the guys signed and after that, my girlfriend took a picture of me and Danko!! ;D Here are the pictures from this performance, I also filmed Sugar High and Still in Highschool, will upload those on YouTube soon!

Great video an pics! Wish I could have been there! I recorded the web stream of the Paradiso show at Fab Channel, and gonna make a dvd out of it (as soon as I can figure out how to convert those god damn .ivr files), an I think it would be cool to include thes video clips of the aucostic show as a bonus, if you guys are ok with that?

Philthy, I'll send you a PM I don't have a better file than the one online, because it wasn't recorded but streamed live over the internet.

Danko's vocals sound really good too..and I love that JC's playing an acoustic bass , rather than just backing up with a few rhythm parts on a regular acoustic guitar. I love acoustic bass in an 'unplugged' session but not enough bands actually go for it.

Yes, you can download them there. But I'm afraid it costs too much bandwidth to make the dvd downloadable for everyone.
