Bettie Serveert @ Vintage Vinyl

Though they're on of my favorite indie acts of the early-mid-'90s (and, obviously living beyond that timeframe), I've never had the opportunity or luck to catch the Dutch band Bettie Serveert live. This despite the fact that group regularly plays St. Louis, good for about a date a year here. Gonna try to change that next month. Here's the announcement from our pals at VV, of an in-store in October:

October 7th
1:30PM

Exclusive St. Louis appearance - Bettie Serveert live at Vintage Vinyl

The instore appearances good karma keeps flowing St. Louis' way as Vintage Vinyl is extremely happy to announce that we will be hosting an exclusive St. Louis appearance with our favorite Dutch indie rockers, Bettie Serveert.

On tour promoting the brand new acoustic disc "Bare Stripped Naked", Bettie Serveert are on tour and without a proper club show in St. Louis. Unable to grasp the idea of passing through St. Louis without stopping, Minty Fresh Records and the band decided a free instore performance at Vintage Vinyl was a perfect solution for everyone.

Having captured the hearts of American indie rockers in 1992 with their brilliant debut "Palomine", Bettie Serveert has regained their positive commercial and critical momentum which has arced perfectly with them releasing some of the best music of their career as well.

Catch Bettie Serveert's only 2006 appearance in St. Louis on October 7th beginning at 1:30PM. Since there is no club gig later that night expect the unexpected as the band will be performing electric and acoustic.
