thanks for the links.
Don't think you'll have much luck on Marktplaats, checked earlier today already as I was looking for a car charger.

It will definetely be DDN. Got it from first source Chokri Mahassine, organiser of Pukkelpop. oh man I really hope I can film there. The gigs in London will be taped professionally and mabey Olivier ASSAYAS can tape at La Route du Rock. Would be awesome to have all these different people taping the DDN shows.

English are worse...

Sorry Heckler, it wasn't meant that personally. You have to read where I read it from (pokkeherrie's first link, one day earlier). Besides, he's not saying that of the French, but the French speaking Belgians. And I do have to agree with that, all the French Belgians I've met were arrogant idiots. And all the Flemmish people I know are great persons.
Hey, if I had issues with the French, I wouldn't have spent most of my holidays there (on a small island with hardly any other foreigners). Or feel the need to listen to Serge Gainsbourg at least once a week.


thanks for the update Jef.

Dinosaur Jr. and the GO! team are coming to Pukkelpop too.
The best part is that I get to go for free!

HECKLER SPRAY 05.27.2007 10:51 AM

No problem, tunic, my post wasn't very serious, I knew you were kidding.
I don't really understand the controversy between the flemmish and the walloon, they live together since so many years.

yes you can. Normally it records lossy (mp3 format probably). But when you load a different firmware on it called Rockbox, you can make lossess recordings too. Another bonus of the Rockbox firmware is that it allows you to play flac-files.

EvdWee 05.27.2007 04:47 PM

the bands performing at pukkelpop on the same day as sonic youth: tool, nin, trail of dead, ozark henry, kings of leon, lcd soundsystem, cocorosie, the streets, lacuna coil, silver chair, the whitest boy alive, flip kowlier, loney,dear, the end, home video, heavy heavy low low...

i think about going to pukkelpop one day..

greenlight 05.27.2007 05:22 PM

wow. that's amazing. 40 GB? With a good mic, and such a space....nice one. I'll check that out (reviews and stuff).

is that difficult/complicate thing to load different firmware into it?

_tunic_ 05.27.2007 05:36 PM

they come in 20GB (H320, which I have) or 40GB (H340), there's also a H1x0 series, which is perhaps better, since it has as far as i know the same features, but is a bit smaller. Loading the firmware is very easy, just follow the steps as described on the site. Finding the correct firmware on the site is perhaps trickier, as they have different versions for different hardware.
the H3x0 has a built-in microphone but it isn't recommended for recording live concerts. I bought some microphones for $50,- which sound quite good in my ears, plus a batterybox for an extra $40,- which is needed to give the microphones some extra power.

Damn the calendar doesn't list bot shows as DDN shows.
