Paard van Troje

EPICA CONCERT

I visited The Hague for one day and in the evening I went to the nightclub Paard van Troje in central Hague, to go to a rock concert. It was the Dutch symphony/gothic metal band Epica (with the German band Xandria as an opening act) I saw before taking the train back to Amsterdam.

You can watch parts of the concert on Youtube (click here).

The club:

Paard van Troje (entrance in the brown building to the left). This club was the only place were Epica played in the Netherland this time, but it is a good place because The Hague is the 3rd largest city, and it lies between Amsterdam and Rotterdam.

Prinsegracht street (the club is the brown building in the middle).

Another rock concert I passed by on the way to Paard van Troje.

Inside the club. It has 3 floors, but is not very big.

Simone Simons in Epica.

Epica used many light effects.

Some dancers were dressed like angels, illuminated in blue light.

Suddenly Marcela Bovio, the singer from Stream of Passion joined Simone on stage!

Suddenly the power went out and they made an extra number with the drummer.

Xandria:

German Xandria was the opening act for Epica.
