Iain Matthews and Ad Vanderveen , the "Iain Ad Venture" live in concert. Performing many songs from their latest CD "Ride the times".
Location: Neustadt / Weinstrasse, Germany, at "Tavern confetti" on January 22nd, 2011th The concert was organized
by "cultural association hornet's nest."
Nice place, good concert atmosphere, two extraordinary musicians on stage in close contact with the listeners, thanks to Jügen tree too who took care of perfect sound!
The musicians Iain Matthews and Ad Vanderveen (Ad van der Veen) were yesterday, on 22 January in Neustadt an der Weinstrasse to a concert in the pub confetti. The event was well-known and very active cultural association "Wasp Nest" , which this year celebrates its 20th anniversary.
Iain Matthews (formerly known as Ian Matthews on the way) is probably known by many a hit song "Woodstock," which he then with his band, Ian Matthews Southern Comfort had. (As seen on YouTube in Germany was not, here is the link to the original version of Joni Mitchell !)
Since then a lot of time elapsed and Ian has since released many albums and CD's.
Over 10 years he has lived in America in the near Austin, Texas. Before coming back to Europe and the Netherlands. There he met then Ad Vanderveen. The two played together for some time, recorded a CD together and then went their own respective ways.
came after just over 5 years in 2009 to a reunion and renewal of the cooperation. The two then have in the past year in 2010 new joint CD releases: "Ride the Times" that they present their two concerts in Germany (The Ian Ad Venture ) in January.
Ad Vanderveen I've met last year on the island of Samos in Greece, and so it was a nice opportunity to meet us again, albeit this time in cold Germany.
And a kick to drive once again in the Palatinate, but there were some high memories of past days!
The inn confetti in Neustadt an der Weinstrasse was new to me, just that there are already so many great musicians occurred. But Neustadt's just been a bit away from Mainz (About 95km). The relatively small rooms have a nice atmosphere and indicates you can eat delicious things !
The concert was sold out, filled the space tightly. And Ad Vanderveen and Iain Matthews delivered in two sets of great songs! Many of them, of course, the new CD. But some songs earlier date such as "Soul Power" by Ad Vanderveen and Iain's songs: "I'm alive", "Funk and Fire", and finally the famous "Darkness, Darkness".
Here are some pictures from the concert, I have them all converted to black and white to avoid the red light. Iain looks really suffering from the face when he sings! ;-)

Iain Matthews:
In the song "Funk and Fire" Iain was there and speak with energy in the final meters it is then a string on the guitar broke. Then had to change the two short their intended song sequence! For, since ad is Vanderveen left-handed, may Iain not simply rely on one of the guitars of Ad:
Here is the written by Iain Matthews song "Sorrow" from the CD "Ride the Times" can be heard live from the Tavern confetti!
"Soul Power" by Ad Vanderveen: "green time so"
Ad Vanderveen:
All recorded that evening videos can be found here !
For best sound "Soundler" Jürgen Baum had taken care of.
All in all a great concert. Then there was a convivial and Kersten de Ligny with Ad. Iain was still night, back to Holland, as he flies to America on Monday.
A small surprise when I stepped out into the freezing cold night! Frost on the cars everywhere!
