I'm glad to read about all people safely returned home, I'm still continuing the event a bit here at home having Howard and Juli over, but in about 6 hours they'll be on their way home as well - better get some sleep now ...
I really had a great time, thanks to all for that. There has been some occasional mismanagement that will have touched some more than others, I'm sorry for that, and I hope that people will be able to share their less than perfect experiences here as well - I'd like to hear those.
For people wanting to post pictures about the event, I made a new section in the gallery for Chateau Sonore pictures which is currently empty. I just noticed that Wout was a bit quicker than me, but I thought it to be a good idea of posting picture series as new sub-albums in that album. If anyone needs help posting the pics I'd be glad to try to help out.
Ok, off to bed now, I promise to post pics later ! _________________ Jan
also .. could someone please turn down the thermostat a bit.

Here is the video I shot of a practice for my set.

It was a pleasure to meet you all and to get to hang out. Sorry I could not use my hands pretty much due to a recent re-injury.

Hi Guys,
Maybe it would be a good idea if we could get a list together of all the people that attended with real names and forum names, this would help matchine the forum names to faces.
Anyone have any idea of how we could go about this.
Cheers

A wiki seems ideal, is there one on electro-music.com? Their also great for collaboratively writing tutorials and stuff. |

Just wanted to say that I didn't experience any mismanagement at all. The organizers could have opted to have one bus transport for everybody at the same time from Brussels to the Chateau and back - they didn't. They made a plan for everybody and travelled back and forth to get the people from the airport/train station, whatever. Kees drove 800km the very first day. So maybe Kees calls that mismanagement, but I was just one happy participant, enjoying great company, great food and great patches. I was just happy to hear no-one was injured in that grisly car accident on the very last day and I arrived at the airport very well in time - in time for paying 24 € excess luggage fee. _________________ Fish don't swim.

It was a great pleasure to me to be there with so many interesting people, at such a nice and inspiring place. and I was glad you all enjoyed it in our small but good-living Belgium.
thanks to the organizers who make it all possible and to mono-poly who introduced me into this event.
thanks also to the people who have taken photographs, they are very nice.

Thank you all for the hospitality, for my mother and me. We enjoyed! I didn't know that beautiful place, in my own country. Great idea, Rob, Jan and all of you. We could only stay one day and unfortunately couldn't meet everyone. I didn't know there was a Continuum, we missed so many performances and discussions... it's a shame!
BobTHeDog idea to get a list of the participants is great. An easy way would be to create a gallery, to add photos with names and information... Wot began a portrait gallery... maybe can we complete this work. |

No, no, don't exaggerate, it was only 600 km...
I returned home safely and I've already had my first working day.
Thanks to everyone who have posted the pictures they took during the event.
It was a great week! |

Driving a van to which you're not used to drive? Well, then Brussel is a hell... It looked to me the van was a pin ball machine ball going through the town, but that's only my imagination

I really had a hard time to not fall a sleep on my way back.
But it worked out good without any damage.
I will sort some pictures this week and upload them. |

Doppleganger,
Your set passes the "cubicle" test. IE, it can be enjoyed inside a cubicle on headphones as well as in a chateau in Belgium, surrounded by beautiful scenery. In fact, I'm enjoying the hell out of it now, thank you very much for posting it!
Cheers,
Scott _________________ My Site |

Juli and I got home last night and almost immediately went to bed and slept late. We're doing fine with the jet lag so far but it was quite a long trip. There is a lot of housework to do.
Thanks to Wout, Jan and Rob for organizing such a great event. We had a wonderful time. It was great to renew old friendships and make new ones. There is a neat old girl scout saying (actually it's a song) "make new friends and cherish the old; one is silver and the other is gold". Great people, music, food, Belgium beer, Dutch bush, a beautiful place - what more could one want?
Thanks especially to Jan and Wout for hosting us before and after the event. It was really great to meet Wout and Lise's 2 year old son, Menno. Also, it was great to meet an old friend, Carlo, for the first time. Performing with Amy X Neuburg was a thrill. Making all the new old friends topped off the whole thing.
I'll post my pics (not as good as those posted already) soon. Arrggggg, starting to feel tired, jet lag creeping in. Oh well, Dave Peck and Dasz have it even worse than we do. _________________ --Howard

Oh, I forgot.
Thanks to the organizers and the attendees for agreeing to donate 1/2 of the left-over money from the event to help electro-music.com. That is so much appreciated. As soon as we can figure out what will help our server more, a second processor or more memory, we'll use the money for that.
BTW, it was very funny when Rob announced this. He said something like, "I'm sure Howard can use the money for something he needs, like better memory." _________________ --Howard
