Store Recommendations: Amsterdam

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I've been looking to buy some of the more recent prog albums, but I can't seem to find a good store which has a good selection of them in Amsterdam. As I saw a lot of dutchies around here, I wonder if anyone can recommend me some obscure store somewhere hidden deep in Amsterdam, or anywhere else in Holland really.

Something I've been specifically looking for is The Human Equation by AYREON, as well as the Liquid Tension Experiment. I can't seem to find anything but pop and less recent albums in stores like Concerto, but I love browsing through the shelves (Isn't that how most people here 'found' progressive music?), so I'd prefer not to buy online. All the 'metal/rock' sections of the larger shops seem to have in stock now is Nu-Metal and Punk. 

Thanks in advance,

Krator

	Hoi Krator! Hebben ze in de Fame geen symfo-hoek? Ik dacht van wel, maar ik ben maar een paar keer in Amsterdam geweest...

	Yep, Fame has a rather big symfo-hoek (de dam).

	OK, nog even een Hagenees met wat advies! Ik heb goede ervaringen met Concerto (behoorlijk aanbod prog cd's en dvd's), Fame (enorme bakken met prog cd's en dvd's en ook nog leuke muziek boeken) en Boudisque (altijd wel wat bijzonders op progrock gebied, wel minder dan vroeger). Tip: mail [email protected] voor progrock cd's en dvd's, zie ook site www.progwalhalla.com Dit is een vriend uit Zaandam die een progrock mailorder service heeft, ik schrijf ervoor maar verdien er niets aan, het is puur progrock plezier!

	Je kunt het altijd nog proberen via bol.com, hier kun je de meest obscure cd's bestellen.
