Kreef Hotel: Amazing people edition #1

Bally Hanekom a very selected number of people in this carbon-footprint replenished world have had the wonderful privilege of meeting Terblanche Hanekom. And even a number of this selected group are looking at this photo and wondering, who's Terblanche? Well, we know him as Bally. Soft spoken, dangerously sharp, kind as a saint, strict as a sergeant, passionately fanatic about musical talent Bally Hanekom.. Cares actively about the things he cares about and feels a fuck for the things he don't care about. Reguit, geen doekies omgedraaide eerlike broer van 'n vriend. Dis ons Bally.

Om 'n party soos hierdie te gooi kom nie sommer vanself nie, mens oefen vir jare. 50 jare. En hy't ge-oefen! The resultant party was a joyous affair of note that will be remembered by the lucky fuckers that were there! a 7 meter stage is opgeslaan en bally se hele agtertuin is toegetrek met freeform tente en Bally se muddafakka sound system is op stage opgeslaan. Donderdagaand se sound check het, soos verwag, uitgeloop op 'n goeie oefensessie om te check of die bar se range reg uitgewerk is. <-fact-> one quarter of the 130-party stock of jagermeister was successfully tested by the 15 attendees of the sound-check on thursday night.

Albert Frost many famous musicians showed their special sides on Bally's new indoor pool stage. Seen in the picture above is jesus frost (aka albert frost), our save here. Rumoer has it that Al (as us okes who know him call him) now knows all the cords. even the bar cords. So, he's been working at perfecting his new act, where he's had a crutch attached to himself to act as an xtra leg (totalling him now 2 and a half in working condition) - to operate the other nine pedals.. His doctors are pensive.. Al & Arthur Dennis gave Bally a special birtday gift when they attacked Arthur's strat in stereo. Al was on top mostly and arthur eventually got hold of the shaken guitar, then he stirred it. a whole fuckin lot he stirred it man..!

Rob Nagel We were honoured and fittingly surprised when ALBERT was visited on stage by his dad. God. this man can play the mouth-harp so it pulls the deepest string in a man's heartstring collection. ROB NAGEL, bluesbroer, lead-bassist, qwerty keyboardist and dear friend played the rock till it was blue.. dit was aand en dit was more, die volgende dagga..
