Der Peter presents his new book... BUY IT!!!!

Next sunday, the 2nd of september Der Peter is presenting his new book in the filmtheatre 'De nieuwe Scene'. It starts at 16.00 hrs and a documentary about Peter will be shown on big screen. Also Peter will read from his book.

The book is released in a limited edition of 200 and is written in English. I don't like stereotyping, but most of my blog visitors will not know Der Peter. So here's a little bio he won't like:
Peter was the leadsinger/bassplayer of one of the fierce, fasted and best hardcorepunk bands in the early eighties, Pandemonium. At the time they where around 16 years old, but where a true legend at the time and still are, since their records are still reissued!
It would be easy to drop a name like Henry Rollins a US icon from the same generation that started writing books, but Peter left the music scene completely and became a writer and painter. But if you like Henri's writer please check out 'Indigo Blue and Red Impact' because it has a more in your face European style. Topics go from Louis Seveke (Dutch green activist that was brutally murdered) to buying real estate in Cuba! Sometimes funny, but mostly written with the sharp pen of a observant that somehow sees the normal things in life through a lens that opens the eye of the reader!
