Dutch radio station Radio 2 will be broadcasting the legendary Smiths concert in De Meervaart in Amsterdam, 21 April 1984, upcoming Friday between 23.00 en 00.00 CET.

This was their only gig ever in Holland and has since gained a cult status. Just a few very lucky ones were able to enjoy it, because it was a private party of the Dutch music magazine Vinyl.

25 years later, we can finally hear it via www.radio2.nl, by clicking on 'Live'.

The concert will be online via www.legendarischlive.kro.nl.

    Listen Again? (Score:0)
    I listened to the concert on Friday on the internet, but the stream kept cutting out. Is there a listen again option?, and when does this start.
    I have tried to relisten but no luck as yet on the pages.
    Thanks for your help.

        simple to hear it now (Score:1)
        go the page, the last link in the newsitem

        3rd white piece is called 'LUISTEREN'

        scroll a bit down and click on the laast link in
        that white piece, and you get to hear it.

        [it was again introduced by Mark Stakenburg though he spoke of the magical Smiths, and after the split Morrissey made albums but never reached
        the Smiths succes, at last he said in the intro
        about 'years of Refusal'was critizised as 'reasonable'.
