A TRIBUTE TO JOY DIVISION
Met live : CLOSER TO CURTIS + film

Een hommage aan een van de meest invloedrijke en actuele (luister maar naar Arcade Fire of Interpol) bands van de afgelopen 20 jaar. Met eerst de biopic van Anton Corbijn en daarna een optreden van Closer To Curtis dat - met in haar gelederen o.a. Ernst Grevink (aka Erny Green, Polgate) - de sound van Joy Divison akelig dicht weet te benaderen. Avondje kippenvel dus…
