On Sunday, March 16th, an exceptionally lively afternoon transpired at the Duycker venue in Hoofddorp, which is now affectionately known as CPunt.
Three exceptional bands, two of which are now close friends, graced the stage.
It is always gratifying to witness the camaraderie of friends.

Every year the Heavy Metal Maniacs have their party. And how great it is this 24th edition.
Oktober 18th and 19th 2024. Venue: P60 Amstelveen. I love this venue. Sound and Light are always ok. I could never complain about that.
What a top list of bands were playing at this festival.
I just got a selective amount of pictures on this website. For more pictures see the Facebook page of the Heavy Metal Maniacs.

Switch to English and more ...
28/10/24 12:00
Just a notice. I recently did some photographing for international bands. And it looks like I'll get more international bands in front of the camera.
That's why I decided to switch to English from now on. I won't translate the other blogs I already wrote. Please use Google Translate if you're interested in the older blogs.
Furthermore I also got more and more questions like "can I find you on Facebook?". The answer was "no." The reason for this lies in the line of privacy. Meta is not the best company regarding privacy. So that's the main reason I stopped with Meta tools a long time ago. But I'm back with my Metalfotograaf page on Facebook. So try to find me there on fb://www.facebook.com/Metalfotograaf

P60 Feestje
19/02/23 15:09
Wat een feestje afgelopen vrijdag 17 februari 2023. Ben van den Hoorn (Metal Maniacs) en Rudo Plooy (Black Knight) besloten een klein feestje te organiseren in P60, Amstelveen.
Black Knight trapte af met een waanzinnige set. Na een goede 45 minuten bedankte de band. Jammer genoeg speelden ze de toegift "Lights Out (U.F.O)" niet> Er was helaas geen tijd meer.
Na Black Knight werd het podium opgebouwd voor Martyr. Martyr geeft altijd hun volle 200%. De reaper kwam op het podium, Rop (Vocals) kreeg de volle lading bloed over zich heen van de reaper.
Na Martyr volgde uiteindelijk Manimal uit Zweden. Volledig gekleed in Black Metal outfit, inclusief Corpse Paint. Echter de muziek is verre van Black Metal. Heerlijke stevige metal werd er gespeeld.
Zo rond twaalf uur 's nachts was dit fantastische feest ten einde. Jammer, ik had nog uren kunnen door feesten en fotograferen. Op naar het volgende feestje maar weer. In ieder geval staat sowieso 30 september alweer geboekt voor Ben's Metal fest.
