Despite the fact that I'm in Cambodia... I have my people feeding me what good back in the NL. Therefore, lets get to it, as I sit poolside in Phnom Penh:

Friday:

Don't let anyone tell you bluegrass isn't cool, go see the Southern Tenant Folk Union; Paradiso, Kleine Zaal, 8pm, €8.50 + membership.

Cancer Bats are Canadian. I love the Canadian music, even if it is hardcore punk; Melkweg, Oude Zaal, 8:30pm, €9 + membership.

My buddies over at Wicked Jazz Sounds are doing it on a Friday; Sugar Factory, 10pm, €8.

Saturday:

It could prove disastrous, but it is free so perhaps worth a try; Big Band Marinierskapel, on the corner of Keizersgracht-Nieuwe Spiegelstraat, 5pm.

It should be fairly eighties, but check out PosT; Winston Kingdom, 9pm, €6.

West Hell 5 are having a CD release party at Maloe Melo; 10:30, €5.

Sunday:

I'm full blooded Portuguese so you'll understand why I recommend Maria Fernandes, an outdoor Fado concert!; Claes Claeszhofje, 3pm, free.

Indie is good, and so is White Williams; Paradiso, Kleine Zaal, 10pm, €8 + membership.

It ends on Sunday, but from Friday to Sunday you can go to Haarlem and check out the comic festival. Fun for all ages.
