Nensi Mujčinović, Amsterdam

A report from the concert of Balkan Rock Legends and guests: Marina Perazić, Vlada Divljan, Saša Lošić and Elvis J. Kurtović in Paradiso, Amsterdam on February 25th 2005.

On Sunday February 20th of this year Balkan Rock Legends played in Paradiso, a legendary music venue in Amsterdam (a former church turned into a rock music temple), which in past hosted The Rolling Stones and everyone else, "dead or alive" whose name bears any relevance for rock'n'roll music.

Chris Keulemans
writer and journalist, Amsterdam:


Rock music in other languages than English always sounds silly, amateuristic and sweetly provincial. When I hear French or Italian or Norwegian bands playing their hearts out, I can always understand that local crowds will go wild, but to an outsider they sound like grown men who were not brave enough to go for their boyhood dream, to be a real rocker, and settled for second best instead. I love certain Dutch-speaking rock bands, but this is a kind of chummy love, not high admiration. To this rule, rock in former Yugoslavia was the exception.
