Last week Panama in Amsterdam was closed down. I have many fun and good memories there. Panama was an icon. Bands performing and always a relaxed atmosphere with cool (alternative) people. I'll miss the place. One of the last performances:
An uncle died recently. This was the song on the funeral. I didn't know him that well. he was a diplomat and has seen the world and lived life. Afterwards I heard many stories where he helped people around him, but never took credit for it. A remarkable man, and I feel kind of sorry I didn't know him so well. He was different, and certainly did it his way.
Somebody send me this this morning:

Can you hear my call? Are you coming to get me now?
I've been waiting for you to come rescue me
I need you to hold all of the sadness I can not...
Live with inside of me
I'm crying out.
I'm backing down.
I am feeling it all.
Stuck inside these walls, tell me there is hope for me.
Is anybody out there listening?
Not if you screw people again and again.
