André Rieu Fans in Maastricht Celebrating World Cup!


Ineke and Ruud Have Gone Orange!!
HUP HOLLAND HUP!! Let The Game Begin!!
From Ruud and Ineke: A very warm good morning from Maastricht, it is currently 38C or 100F!! They have converted the Vrijthof now and the barriers which normally allow access for people with concert tickets will stay in place. If the Dutch team wins, André and the JSO will come to the Vrijthof and play a few songs, including the 2nd Waltz which made him famous! The Photos: A typical Dutch family (otherwise they are quite normal ;-) Everything orange is used, even carrots. A view of the Vrijthof, at this moment there are even a lot more people. (See last picture that Al sent of the Vrijthof now) And "Our Special Reporter"! Ruud and Ineke ... Note: There is a lot more in their reporting about the concert at the MECC and other things going on with a LOT of pictures! I will get all that on in a few, but wanted to put the pics of the Vrijthof and ORANGE on first as the game is about to begin!

  1. Wow! Looks like all the people from the concerts plus a few thousand more on the square! It's cool to think I'm watching the same thing they are. Although, I don't know if ABC is showing it live, or delayed. Looks like spirits are high in Maastricht!!!
