Pinkpop organisers are also asking for fans to suggest bands to be added to the line up.  A  tradition because even now, the fans of Pinkpop interfere with the selection of a part of the program. In addition to the old-fashioned letter or postcard to Buro Pinkpop, PO Box 117, 6160 AC Geleen via the website can vote.
Give three names and the program will do its best. Last year we voted en masse to The Editors, the organization which then could be captured. There may be voted from Tuesday, December 9 and Friday, January 9, 2009.
In recent years were more than 10,000 fans each of their Pinkpop GOLDEN TIP to the organization. A tip from our side, not on the big voice of the earth. Come with reasonable new bands at all and surprise the program.

We look forward to reading your reviews of pinkpop

Why Pinkpop?

Pinkpop is the oldest annual festival to date, not just in Amsterdam, but in the world. If its longevity doesn’t suggest its superiority among other festivals, then maybe its impressive history of bands will:

Pearl Jam, Radiohead, Fleetwood Mac, Red Hot Chilli Peppers, REM, Pixies, Herman Brood, Urban Dance, U2, Tool, Dire Straits, The Police, The Stranglers, The Cure….need we go on?

These performances caused such a stir that many of them are still shown on TV.

Pinkpop is also well-known for showcasing bands years before they break through, so it is the perfect place to witness some crackling future talent.

Top Historical Pinkpop Highlights

1. Pearl Jam play Pinkpop ’92.

The Pearl Jam set in 1992 went down in history as one of the most remarkable shows at Pinkpop – ever. The show was frantic, urgent and wildly engulfing. Fans at Pinkpop ’92 witnessed a piece of spectacular music history.

2. Radiohead play Pinkpop ‘96
( Check out the attached Youtube video of Radiohead at Pinkpop playing Bones)

Only Thom Yorke can wear a yellow anorak and trousers – and be still be one of the coolest men alive. Radiohead stormed Pinkpop in the torrential rain, playing classics such as Street Spirit and Creep, resulting in a momentous performance.

3. The breakthrough of alternative Dutch band, Krezip.

Although they were not originally on the bill, Krezip stood in for one of the big names who had to pull out. The astounding set that Krezip put on for an enthusiastic crowd resulted in the band’s national breakthrough.

Pinkpop – The Vibe.

Despite the effervescent, electric performances, the atmosphere is always peaceful and relaxing. Pink Pop knows how to party, but they also know how to kick back and chill out – the perfect combination for a festival.
