Hi John Smies,
When I was in Amsterdam last week I saw a man
turning around the big wheel of a fantastic
streetorgan.Somebody called him John. Now I
am home again and realised this man could
have been John Smies.Was that you John or
was it another musician?
Mart

Hi John,
Did you overlook this message?
Bye Mart

Sorry Mart,
I did overlook your posting, but a friend of mine pointed it out to me.NO it was not me,
I have nothing to do with street organs, what's more I live near Middelburg, not exactly nearby as far as Amsterdam is concerned. Sorry I missed it...........
(heb jij geen email adres ?)

Hi John,
On the map of Danmark I could not find
Middelburg. Do you live in a small village?
Are there not enough jobs to do for street-
organplayers in your country?
Bye Mart.

Hi mart,
This is somewhat bothersome, you not having your own email address, but anyhow.
Forget about the street organs, it has nothing to do with me, and very little (with
the rest of Holland) these days, I hate to admit.....
Read your comments in the PRO9000 about you playing the VA7 and being particularly please with some of the Styles that we marketed in Holland a couple of years ago.
The famous ROSENBERG stlyle was composed by
a friend of mine, as most of the so-called
QUALITY STYLES (series of 6 disks) for G800,
G1000/EM2000 and VA7. Still very much recommended, but I take it you have got them all.
P.S. Middelburg is in the very South West,
5 miles from the sea and near the Belgian border......

It will be pretty hard to find middelburg on a map of Danmark !!!!!
Try the Netherlands maybe, south east part.
Where all the islands are.

Arno,
You trying to be a smart ass, or what ?!
Do me a favour will you !!
