thanks to Coastcruiser for giving me the heads up about this very cool almost 10 minute Video shot at the First European Bug In this Summer! it’s great it covers all aspects of the show, the Cars, the Show, the People and the Atmosphere!! great Job Oxidium!!!

still having fond memories to this castle in Stavelot, i was so lucky to be part of its history from approx 1983 to 1989, learning french and kissing girls during almost the whole summerholiday … the castle has been sold now to a wealthy person who will keep it as his weekend mansion when he comes over from the Netherlands. I hope that a part of my soul will stay in these stones.
