Culemborg Blues 2007-The Festival

The 14th Culemborg Blues 2007 was held last Saturday. A beuatiful surrounding, beautiful weather and a lot of bands. Amongst other you could enjoy the sounds of Superfloor, Danny Bryants, Redeye Band, Scot MckKeon, Kozmic Blue, Ana Popovic, Alquin, Juke Joints, Jeroen Sweers Boogie Woogie Band.
I didn't saw and heard all of them but I saw the following bands perform, Jeroen Sweers Boogie Woogie Band, Motel Kingz, Cleanhead & Barefoot, Kozmic Blue and Ana Popovic.
I enjoyed Ana Popovic the most. Her guitarplay was perfect, no wonder she was invited to play at the Jimmy Hendrix memorial in the US.
Also this year the festival was perfectly organised. This years festival should be the reason to visit the next again.

Culemborg blues 2007 - The Program

Well a while ago I wrote about the upcoming Bluesfestival in Culemborg, The Netherlands, that will take place August 25Th, 2007 from 14:00h until 01:00h. Which bands will perform and in what order, well click the link and find out. Besides the program you will also find short bio's of the performing bands. I know for certain you will find me there on that saturday and I hope to meet you to there. I try to take my camera with me so I can place a photo impression of that day on this page.

Culemborg Blues - The Program

Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door

Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door has been performed by a lot of artists in different musicstyles, blues, soul, rock or gospel, by a.o Eric Clapton and Guns 'N Roses.
The lyrics beneath I found on http://www.lyrics007.com/, and is the text as performed by Guns 'N Roses. I really think the best and most powerfull performance of this song was done by Guns 'N Roses.

If you want to play it yourself on guitar, well its easily done using a chord scheme like:
G D Am
G D C
G D Am
G D C
This scheme is the basic of this song, but you can alter it anyway you like and add your own interpretation, good luck.

Knockin' On Heavens Door



Mama take this badge from me
I can't use it anymore
It's getting dark too dark to see
Feels like I'm knockin' on heaven's door

Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door

Mama put my guns in the ground
I can't shoot them anymore
That cold black cloud is comin' down
Feels like I'm knockin' on heaven's door

Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door

"You just better start sniffin' your own
rank subjugation jack 'cause it's just you
against your tattered libido, the bank and
the mortician, forever man and it wouldn't
be luck if you could get out of life alive"*
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door
