Oumpf..Erm, I think I insulted him back enough don't you agree?=)

In his defence I have to say it is a bit common in Holland to be the

Alas but true, dutch musicians are still beeing considered very capable 
in playing their instruments, as long as they do it alone.

I hope to contribute to a more open-minded next generation.=)
