I'm going to Holland for a few weeks this summer. I'm going to stay in Rotterdam, but I plan to visit the other Randstad cities. Can someone give me a tip about clubs or concert venues? I've heard about Rotown and Watt in Rotterdam, but would also like to hear about similar places in Amsterdam, Haag and Utrecht. I like Intelligent Dance Music, and Intelligent Rock Music.
Yours truly bingob

ill show you the hague. for nightlife i generally like to drink beers, but we could do it when there's some intelligent music concert. do you like modern classical as well?
i generally like groups of three, but it will be just you i understand. maybe some other dutch can come here. since i showed pomme de terre the hague last year, i led two city tours for friends and family. i'm good

Occasional IDM gigs in Utrecht: Ekko, Tivoli de Helling.
The area around the Oudegracht is full of nice cafés and bars with plenty of music throughout the week. There's also the bigger Tivoli at the Oudegracht which attracts larger rock bands.

oh this is not a meet up thread :$ don't know why i thought that
in The Hague het Paard van Troje (Horse of Troj). also there's festivals pretty often, and prefer those, cause you get to see stuff you didn't know yet. in The Hague, in Amsterdam. prolly the other big cities as well: Utrecht, Rotterdam.
you should let us know the dates you're here and we could look into those. (and not go ourselves so we won't accidently meet up)

It´s not until late August. 15th to 27th/28th. I´m in Rotterdam mon-fri, but I will probably go somewhere else in the weekends. DJ Shadow is playing in Holland in July and Plaid in September, so I hope there is some action in August too. I´m scared of Xltronic people, but perhaps I will tell you when
I come, so we can do Intelligent Death Raping.

I lived in Rotterdam for a year and it was a really nice city for clubbing. One of the biggest clubs in the whole region is there, Now&Wow. Their website is down but you can check it out here. It had a tendency to be a bit decadent, in a not only a positive way but they had some really good gigs

Thanks for the tips guys. The Stekker fest looks cool, but plane tickets are already bought, and I'm arriving sunday 15th, so that's a day too late. Do you live in Utrecht, retape? I've checked out a lot of venues and clubs, and many seem to be closed in august. At least the are some nice concerts at Rotown (Villagers, Surfer Blood, Girls). I guess I have to do some sightseeing and maybe catch a football match, and if I'm getting desperate I can always go to Pukkelpop or Lowlands.

Haha. Well, I don´t like to smoke, but maybe I´ll try some fortune cookies :)
If they don´t ban tourists that is.

you're allowed to have up to 5 grams. if you sell you're allowed to have more 200 grams at a time. you're not allowed to sell it in the vicinity of schools in most cities. you're not allowed to grow it in quantities over 2 plants. it's not legal but it's 'tolerated'

you're allowed to smoke pure weed or hash in coffeeshops, but not tobacco. because of EU regulations
