BACK IN TIME LIVE STOCKHOLM 2008
September 13, Kolingsborg, Stockholm, Sweden
It's all about the Commodore 64 and its music
Live on stage: Jeroen Tel, Reyn Ouwehand, 6581, Disco Danceaway

It's time for another installment of Back in Time Live, and yet again, it's all about celebrating the Commodore 64 and its music. The event will take place in Stockholm, Sweden, and this year it's hosted by Andreas Wallström from C64.COM and John Carehag from Ziphoid Entertainment. The guys have been around the demo scene since 1987, they have their own radio shows on SLAY Radio, they run C64 sites, Andreas played in SID'80s together with Ben Daglish – among other things. It's safe to say they breathe Commodore 64 air every day.

Oh, yeah... The event.

On stage, you will find headliner Jeroen Tel (Myth, Hawkeye, Turbo Outrun) doing his DJ act that definately will get the dance floor moving! His set includes his classic SIDs, one great Rob Hubbard track, plus unreleased SID tracks.

A band that makes it's debute this evening is the rock act 6581. The band consists of music extraordinaire Reyn Ouwehand (The Last Ninja 3, Flimbo's Quest, Deadlock), Eike Steffen, aka Romeo Knight in Amiga and C64 remix circles, plus Andreas Wallström.

Reyn will also do his one-man-band set where he starts building up a song on the keyboard, then moves over to the bass, then the guitar, the drums, and finally returns to the keyboard for an improv solo. Take a look at this movie: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v8UBY8Yj9c0 for what to expect.

Disco Danceaway, who's remix of Bangkok Knights got rave reviews, makes a beloved return to the Back in Time Live stage. The wig! The glasses! This is the coolest thing since powdered milk.

The DJ of the evening is Jucke of Genesis Project and The experiMENTAL SID Show fame.

Line up is provisional and may be subject to change.

Two shops will be available at the event: The creator of Back in Time Live, Chris Abbott, will bring CD's and DVD's full of C64 goodies. More information here: http://www.c64audio.com. Individual Computers will bring their newly produced C64 products, like the MMC Replay and the RR-Net. More information here: http://www.jschoenfeld.com.

We will also see the release of The 8Bit Philosophy from Shining Movie Vision. This is a documentary about the C64, the C64 remix scene and the people in it. See and hear the likes of Chris Hülsbeck, Reyn Ouwehand, and Press Play on Tape. More information here: http://www.shining-movie-vision.de.

Will there be any C64 celebrities like Martin Galway and Jeff Minter there? Who knows. But there's a rumour that Darth Vader and a few stormtroopers will show up to arrest naughty ZX Spectrum owners. As of now, this should really be considered a rumour though.

News are spreading:

As i've asked a million times without any answer:
Will i be allowed to enter?

Just a friendly piece of advice:
There seems to be very few free hotel-rooms in the centre of Stockholm during the BIT Live weekend - unless you feel like paying 4000 SEK/night at Hilton. If you want to live in the central parts you'd better start looking for hostels!

We're gonna put up some more info about this very soon, but yes, that's a very good advice. Unfortunately, there seems to be a line dancing championship that very weekend, about 500 meters away from the venue, so the places around there are getting quite full.

Have a look at http://www.vandrarhemstockholm.se/ and you can click further on there. The venue is located in the dead center of Stockholm and is named 'Kolingsborg'. http://tinyurl.com/6ay5fr

Sorry for the links being in Swedish, but many of the hostel sites are available in English as well.

hmmmm, isn't it about time we get some some more info, like how much the tickets will be, and how to order them ? People do have to arrange days off etc. to get to BIT, and it's getting closer and closer !

Booked my flight this morning... dont get into Stockholm till 23:30 doh!! no partying for me that night
