The Silver Star Awards turned into the Lucky Strike Dance Awards (when tabacco was still allowed to sponsor events) and were held on May 27, 2000 in Ahoy in Rotterdam. Hosted by nightlife reporter Mick Boskamp.

I forgot who won some awards, but on the photos you can see Tiësto and Stefan Robbers (Acid Junkies) receiving an award.

The street rave in protest on the war on drugs. After decorating the trucks we drove to the Dam square for a protest, a speech and music.

From there on we moved with a big following (the weather was great) through town, back to the harbour area where the party continued.

Mayday is the best party to go to on April 30. Forget Queensday (if it’s not moved to the 29th) and go to Dortmund.

What you’ll see there, you’ve never seen before. A wicked party with 2 stage facing eachother in the mainhall and a line-up... WOW !

One of Holland’s finest days; Queensday. It’s the national excuse to get drunk and party hard.

Always good fun.

One of Awakenings' best editions ever, with spectacular sets from Sven Väth, Dave Clarke, Alter Ego (live) and Lady Aïda.

Unfortunately afterwards we found out somebody died during this party...

My 2nd visit to Tiburg's poptemple 013. Together with a good friend I drove to Brabant to see (and hear) Leftfield play.

I know I thought it was impressive but that's all I know. But hey, I wrote this 10 years after date.

Innercity’s first adventure abroad and it was quite a succesful one. At least for us it was.

A good line-up, good music and nice people. What do you want more…

On the line-up were Monika Kruse, Acid Junkies (live), Westbam, CJ Bolland (live), Miss Djax, 100% Isis, Tiësto, Zzino and others.

An illegal party in an ununsed tunnel underneath a road somewhere around Nieuwgein.

It was fun. A lot of friends, no big names playing, just fun.

Techno Nation is 1 dj playing a long set. In this case it was my hero (back then) Sven Väth, with T-Quest as a warm-up.

Sven played a nice, loud set for 4 hours. Definetely worth the trip.

The organisation of DanceValley organised a very ok party; Impulz in the Brabanthallen in Den Bosch.

On the line-up Joel Mull, Ambient Daan, Mark (???), Fred, Gaetano Parisio, Sander Kleinenberg, Remy, Acid Junkies (live), Lab 4 (live), Michel de Hey, Carl Cox, Tiësto, Billy Nasty, MC Marxman, MC Zoë Noa, MC Charly Lownoise (and others).
