The Skatalites for the first show in Belgium This is another event, that has survived the last 25 years. Website today: antilliaansefeesten.be The residence for that night was the Motel Dennenhof, the same, that was host after the arrival in Brussels (see august 12). I haven’t found any more details for that event. Personally I was preparing my trip to Saint-Nazaire and my first NoF-NoF Session. I have no souvenir from that day before everything started, so please come back tomorrow to read about my first bicycle ride to Neuchâtel and all the next days on the bicycle until Saint-Nazaire

Thursday, august 13, 1992 Melkweg, Amsterdam
The Skatalites for the first Europe show in Amsterdam The very first show on the European continent by The Skatalites is held in the cult club De Melkweg (melkweg.nl). There is not much information to find about this event. All I have is the poster for that show. Vin gave it to me in Saint-Nazaire as a special present. In his words, this is the best poster from that Euro Tour 1992. I haven’t seen all the other posters, but I like it very much and it was great to ask all the members from the tour to sign it
Wednesday, august 12, 1992 arrival Bruxelles | Skatalites, Euro Tour 1992
Skatalites European 92 Tour Itinerary a worldBEAT production Today is the 25th anniversary of that first ever Skatalites Euro Tour from 1992. This blog will publish day by day, what happened 25 years ago. After the tour, I brought 10 of these shirts back to Switzerland as presents to some friends and family. Vin of worldBEAT gave me the tour rider after the tour. Maybe not everything in the rider really happened that way. But it’s not that easy to find out more details. Maybe it’s helpful when I post this blog. Maybe someone have some pictures or straight informations.
