I still can't understand why people start smoking , normal cigarets or (soft) drugs like marijuana .
Neither did I, until I tried marijuana. Its amazing that its illegal, but a drug that completely MESSES YOU UP, like alcohol is legal. I believed all the propaganda my school fed me about marijuana. Of course it was all BS. I'm glad I choose the safer of the two drugs (marijuana and alcohol) to participate in.

Now, I've been to a lot of concerts where it smells like pot. Security would take people out of the venue, but eventually they just gave up because it would mean kicking out the entire audience essentially :P

I wonder if the concert setlist will differ from the concerts he did over the (American) summer?

Al debuted the "European setlist" at the Cleveland show. A number of the video clips are different (but nothing that hasn't already been seen at one point or another) and Al removed "I'm in Luv..." from the medley (apparently, "Gilligan's Island" never aired in the UK), but otherwise it will be roughly the same show.

Nederland: De verkoop tot 5 gram aan meerderjarigen wordt in speciale coffeeshops gedoogd. Gebruikers worden niet vervolgd, tenzij er een plaatselijk blowverbod voor de openbare ruimte is ingesteld. Als het middels de Algemene Plaatselijke Verordening is verboden, is het buiten op straat niet toegestaan om wiet, hasj of andere geestverruimende middelen te gebruiken. De algemene boete hiervoor bedraagt maximaal 180 euro (2008). Recreatief gebruik wordt gedoogd als je het rookt in een coffeeshop of thuis.
Het kweken van marihuana is, op uitzonderlijke omstandigheden na,[4] illegaal in Nederland en er is een actief opsporingsbeleid. Het in bezit hebben tot en met 5 planten wordt door justitie gedoogd, en slechts in enkele gevallen vervolgd. Alleen de teelt van cannabis voor medicinale doeleinden is legaal, maar moet dan wel geheel onder staatstoezicht gebeuren. Nederland heeft op dit moment (2008) één legale cannabiskwekerij waar marihuana met hoge THC-gehaltes onder steriele condities wordt geproduceerd. Medicinaal gebruik is op doktersvoorschrift toegestaan.

Translated by Vertalen.nl gave :

Netherlands: The sale of 5 grams to adults in special coffee shops are tolerated. Users will not be prosecuted unless a local blowverbod public space is set. If it means the General Local Regulation is prohibited on the street is not allowed to marijuana, hashish or other mind-altering means. The general penalty for this amounts to 180 euros (2008). Recreational use is tolerated if you smoke in a coffee shop or at home.
Growing marijuana is, in exceptional circumstances after [4] in the Netherlands illegally and there is an active course of action. Possession up to five plants by Justice tolerated, and only in some cases prosecuted. Only the cultivation of cannabis for medicinal purposes is legal, but must be entirely under state supervision. Netherlands is currently (2008) a legal cannabis farm where marijuana high THC is produced under sterile conditions. Medical use is permitted on a prescription.

About the concert :

The people who are familiar with his music know all his songs , but I think most attenders will only know his well-known songs .

I believe G I seems to have been broadcasted in the Netherlands , but I can't find by which broadcaster .

I know it's a bit late, 4 days before the concert, but I hope someone reads this.
I come from Eindhoven, and I was wondering if anyone was travelling from that direction with whom I could travel, either car or train.

Send me a PM for msn.

Al was on Dutch Radio this morning , 3FM Serious Requests . Morningshow with Giel Beelen , but Giel showed up late , due to the fact of oversleeping and traffic jam . Just before Al had to go , he entered the studio and ask Al 2 questions . His assistent ask some questions instead . You could win tickets (?? ) and the double CD The Essential WAY by answering a question ( answer was Amish Paradise ).

He obviously had some more interview to do this day . I'm try to find out where , but up till now I haven't 1 .

Only 10,5 hours to go .
