February
2012
After an absence from the live scene for two
and a half years we have to conclude that working on other projects
feels good. For now it has been decided to postpone all T-99 activities
until further notice. Without doubt you will see us back on stage,
but we cannot tell you when. For now the band wants to thank everyone
for all support and loyalty through the years.
January
2012 No
less than 6 existing T-99 tracks have been selected to for the movie
'Black Out', a Dutch humoristic crime movie that will premiere on

will rehearse on 1, 2 and 3 December for ONcovered.
In 2010 we can hear what their Sound of Graphic Design is.

a while. It will be working on new songs.
July
National TV station VPRO made a special about
the "Zwarte Cross" and filmed T-99 playing an semi-acoustic
version of the song "Drunk". You can watch the whole special
here
(T-99 starting in the 13th minute).
T-99 is appearing in the book “Rock’n’roll
Tourist” of the British writer Graham Forbes. In this book the
writer travels all over the world to visit concerts of some of his
musical heroes. A visit to Amsterdam brings him to ‘Paradiso’
where Dr. John is playing with T-99 as his support act. Forbes, member
of ‘The incredible string band’ himself, is so enthusiastic
that he includes T-99 in his book and he gives a nice review of the
concert. The book is available at the local bookstore and through
online booksellers (e.g. www.Amazon.com).
Invited
by BBC radio host Mark Lamarr, T-99 will play on the Latitude festival
in Southwold, Suffolk (GB) on 18 July. The show will be done in the
‘Film and Music Arena’ hosted and presented by Lamarr himself.
The festival goes on for four days, from 16 until 19 July. Other bands
that will play there are: Grace Jones, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds,
Editors, The Pet shop boys and many many more.
The
pics section has been redecorated
and updated with new and old, forgotten photo's. Take a look!
On
2 July T-99 played at the Breminale Festival in Bremen (D). This open
air festival on the shores of the river Weser is a yearly presentation
of music, theatre and arts. The show was recorded and broadcasted
by Radio Bremen. The show was a blast! Soon we will drop some pics
here.

broken van, a lost tooth during a 'fhow', sleeping on the ground with
-8 degrees Celcius) it all went great. Especially the Boppin' By The
Pool festival in Austria was a great show and it was fun hanging out

September
Howdy, friends and neighbors! After a short vacation in August we're
back and proud to announce the release of our new album 'Cherrystone
Park'! This joyfull event will be celebrated in Paradiso
Amsterdam on Friday September 30th, as part of the anniversary party
of our record label 'Sonic
Rendezvous' and our booking agency 'Belmont
Bookings'. As we told you earlier, this album was produced again
by Teddy Morgan
and was recorded at the Ylandstudio with Evert Kaatee. The 13 brandnew
songs vary from garage bluesboogies to horny midsummernight ballads
and contain only one cover this time. But what a cover!...
On Friday September 16th T-99 will perform exclusively at the 'Roadrunners
Paradise' club in Berlin during the 'Popkomm'.
This is one of the biggest music business platforms in the world and
is attended by trade visitors and exhibitors from everywhere. To promote
this a compilation CD has been made by Conamus
with practically all the Dutch bands that play in Berlin during that
weekend (read more about this in the july section). The T-99 song
that was selected is 'Cold Rolled Steel', which you can listen to
on this here site! Click here
and you can hear a sample of 'Hayfever' too. If you want to hear more,
come to our little party and buy the CD (or order it online at www.sonic.nl).
July
This month a lot to tell you dear friends...The recordings for the
upcoming album are finished and the tracks are in Nashville, TN at
the moment and will be mastered any moment now by the famous Richard
Dodd. The release will be in September. We are not gonna reveal
what we have created yet but it will raise some sand, that's for sure!
We just got back from a very exciting tour in France. And before that
we did two shows as a support for the legendary Dr. John. Those were
killer shows! Meeting the Dr. was a big thrill and we had a lot of
fun. The shows with Teddy Morgan were a big succes as well, thanks
to all who came out to see us play. Some nice pictures can be seen
at the websites of Klaas
Guchelaar and Daniel
Theunynck. Working with Teddy on the new album was amazing. An
overview can be found here.
A lot of great things are coming up as well: A track from our upcoming
CD will be featured on the compilation promo-CD 'Neue Hollandische
Welle' in a quantity of 18.000 copies. These CD's will only appear
in Germany; as a give-away for musicmagazine 'Visions' as promotion
for the Popkomm-show in Berlin in September. There are a lot of shows
coming up around the release. We will keep you posted.
June
Hi ya'll, we thought we'd drop you a line from the frontline; we're
in the middle of the recording sessions for our 3d upcoming album.
And let us tell you, it's becoming a great album! Stranger things
can happen for sure! Working with Teddy Morgan is just as exciting
as last time. By the way, come out and see us play with him on one
or more of the shows that are stated in the Netherlands and Belgium.
Talking about shows: we're asked to do support for Dr. John at Paradiso
at the end of this month. Dr. John is one of our heroes so we are
looking forward to that one. By the way a real cool party will be
a few days later on the 30th when we will honour our good friend,
engineer and CoolBuzz-labelowner Evert Kaatee with a farewellparty.
He's leaving for Uganda, Africa you see...:-(. Under the title 'Island
Slim Is Leaving The Building' we play together with our good friends
The Seatsniffers and The Strikes at Wilhelmina in Amsterdam. There
is also good news for US-customers: 'Strange Things Happen' can be
purchased at CDBaby
now. More news is coming up...now we have to get back behind the mics
to finish up the recordings...Later!
April
At the moment we are busy writing new material for the upcoming album.
This new record, which will come out in September this year will be
released at Sonic Rendezvous; the same recordlabel who signed for
our latest album 'Strange Things Happen'. We cannot wait to go into
the studio with Teddy (Morgan) again. And also the mini-tour with
him definitely will be great. After this we will go to France for
a little tour and we are happy that we are back on the Parade this
year again in Rotterdam, Den Haag and Amsterdam. Oh, and by the way,
because of the fact that so many of you begged our ears off for the
legendary 'Sign'-logo T-shirts we have decided to reprint them. For
now they are only for sale at one of our shows. We hope to see you
there soon!
March
Our tour through the south of Germany was more than a great success.
We met a whole bunch of new friends and fans. We had a great time
being in Germany and want to thank everyone who came out to see our
shows. A big thank you to all the good people who helped us and made
us feel at home; Uwe & the Prangles, Jesse, Michaël, Peter
and especially Lefty who made all of this possible. Thanks guys, we
hope to see you again real soon!

December
Although it has been a bit quiet for a while at this section of the
our website it doesn't mean we are sitting on our butts. No, not at
all. We have been busy with the first ideas for a new album, we have

work. Next year the meaning of the 'T' in T-99 will stand for touring.
Coming weekend we will visit Switzerland for a few shows, February
we will be touring in the South of Germany if everything goes like
plan and in July we will be in France again. Among other shows we

We're
just back from an overwhelming tour in France. After two days at the
beachclub Chez Dan in Contis we've played four days at the famous
Blues Passions Festival in Cognac. We've met a lot of friends and
fans and the atmosphere was exciting and relaxed. Our hotel turned
out to be a Cognac-farm, so you can understand we had to taste the
good stuff. Our neighbour was a Swiss journalist who enjoyed our late
night parties too (not), so our reputation in Switzerland will be
really good. At the festival we have jammed a couple of times with
our good friends Stincky
Lou & The Goon Mat. They will launch a new record soon, you
better keep an eye out for this most charming and boogying band from
the EU.

We have a new label! Our new record will be released by Sonic
Rendezvous. Although we are very satisfied with the cooperation
with Cool Buzz,
this transfer will give us more opportunities for selling records
outside the Benelux and overseas. Hereby we would like to thank Evert
and Boyd at Cool Buzz for their trust, believe, support and input
over the last three years.

him and engineer Evert Kaatee. We will travel to Tucson, Arizona this
winter to finish the album. You probably will find us gigging there
as well.

The recordings for the next album will take place in September and
October.
Teddy Morgan is going to produce the album. Besides being a great
musician, Teddy produced great CD's for
Cathy Rivers,
Randy Weeks and others. We're looking forward to the cooperation.

Mischa and Thijs have decided to go their separate musical ways after
three hard-rocking years of sharing stages, dressingrooms, vans, hotelrooms
and then some. Starting July Mischa will continue T-99 with Martin
and new bassplayer Donné la Fontaine. Thijs will be playing
freelance for the time being.

T-99 has got a new drummer! Henk
decided to leave the band recently but we have found a good replacement
in the person of Martin de Ruiter. Martin is a great drummer and used
to play with a.o. The Blue Band, The Gravediggers and
The Wild Berrys.

We had a great time touring with Roscoe Chenier and Joost Tazelaar
of Drippin' Honey, clocking in at just under 9.000 kilometres in a
little over two weeks. Roscoe is without any doubt one of the nicest
human beings on the planet, and he's got a killer voice so be sure
to check him out if you can.
