Winery Dogs

Earlier this month, we were attending the last European show of The Winery Dogs “202III world tour”, and this show at the 013 Poppodium in Tilburg, Netherlands, was recorded and filmed for the upcoming live album! Support came from guitar virtuoso Dave Cureton!

Avatar

Avatar’s ‘Dance Devil Dance’ 2023 tour brought the circus back to Tilburg’s 013 Poppodium, supported by Veil of Maya and Kassogtha.

Dream Theater

Progressive metal masters Dream Theater are touring the world with their “Top of the World” tour showing they are true masters at what they do. We got to see them at 013 Poppodium in Tilburg, Netherlands with the Finnish progressive/symphonic power metallers of Arion opening!

Yngwie Malmsteen

Yngwie Malmsteen played a show at 013 Poppodium that seemed like more of a try-out than an actual part of the Parabellum tour, but nevertheless a schooling in neo-classical metal that only someone like him could give!

Gojira

Finally, after all the delays, we got a double serving of the Gojira at 013 Poppodium in Tilburg, Netherlands. With both shows being sold out, they were quite the explosive nights, especially with added to that support acts Alien Weaponry and Employed to Serve!
