At €500 a pop, it’s still cheaper than going on a PICNIC, and apparently a few early-bird tickets are still available.
I (personally) don’t pay that kind of money without some kind of guarantee the whole thing isn’t in my native language and the Shit We All Get isn’t at least a laptop bag or bigger. Looks like I’ll have to hang around outside for discarded badges or pretend to be some one’s child. AGAIN.
Next Web is Wednesday, April 15th – Friday, April 17th at the Westergasfabriek.

*Today only in UNICORN VISION*
♥ HELP YOUR FELLOW MAN
Or at least radio station. Come on, it’s tax deductible!
♥ UNICORNS AND RAINBOWS ON DEMAND
That’s not even my line.
♥ SUPERMODEL DE MUSICAL
Exclusively here in Amsterdam on a limited engagement of “mooi” and fabulous.
Until April 5, 2009 at the theater in the NH Grand Hotel Kransnapolsky.
♥ PEACE THE SPORK OUT!
The “Bambu” company who make bamboo sporks (and utensils, and plates , and cookware that are available at Whole Foods), get a face life on one of their products.
♥ THE VOODOO THAT YOU DO
Tropenmuseum is still having their voodoo and Haitian art exhibit until May 10th, so everyone can wait until it gets a little warmer.

Check out eccentric Ghananan coffins or decorate your own. See all things related to death over on the Vijzelstraat. I’ll be there writing my last wishes on my own account.
Let the custody battle over Gary begin!

Come on down to the Nieuwemarkt and celebrate New Year’s Chinese style.
As the days lead up to the big day, expect a giant dragon to be making it’s way through the straats of Amsterdam dancing and begging for red packets at all the establishments of Asian persuasion. Don’t worry, you can’t miss it. You’ll hear fireworks going off every hour on the hour.
• From 11:00 am – 5:00 pm around De Waag
• Full schedule of the day’s events here
