Basement Saints: Simon Molly (CH) Drums Anton Delen (RSA) Guitar & Vocals Robby Keys (AT) Hammond & Vocals Guitar, bass, and drums — the so-called holy trinity of rock ’n’ roll. That’s the legend, anyway. Basement Saints couldn’t care less. They show up without a bassist, dragging along a snarling Hammond organ and two damn Leslie cabinets, as if subtlety died sometime around 1973 and no one bothered to bury it. The whole thing feels hijacked straight out of the wild seventies. Ten minutes in and you’re itching to climb onto a chopper without a helmet, chain-smoke unfiltered cigarettes, and make questionable life choices in the company of unshaven strangers. The fingerprints of ’70s and Southern rock are everywhere — loud, greasy, and impossible to deny. A Basement Saints show leaves you vibrating, slightly rattled, and painfully aware that you were born too late — stranded in the wrong decade, ears ringing, heart racing, wondering how the hell this still feels so alive. https://hvdommelen.nl/b/BasementS.html

Another mortar attack on the UNIFIL peacekeeping force in Lebanon occurred yesterday. My thoughts go to the family, loved ones, and comrades of the Serbian Blue Helmet who died, and to the two others who got injured. Attacks targeting peacekeepers are unacceptable and must #UNIFIL #Lebanon #Peacekeepers #LB #RS

Sport shouldn’t mean amnesia, and the Olympic movement should help stop wars, not play into the hands of aggressors. Unfortunately, the decision of the International Olympic Committee to disqualify Ukrainian skeleton racer Vladyslav Heraskevych says otherwise. This is certainly not about the principles of Olympism, which are founded on fairness and the support of peace. I thank our athlete for his clear stance. His helmet, bearing the portraits of fallen Ukrainian athletes, is about honour and remembrance. It is a reminder to the whole world of what Russian aggression is and the cost of fighting for independence. And in this, no rule has been broken. It is Russia that constantly violates Olympic principles, using the period of the Olympic Games to wage war. In 2008, it was the war against Georgia; in 2014 – the occupation of Crimea; in 2022 – the full-scale invasion of Ukraine. And now, in 2026, despite repeated calls for a ceasefire during the Winter Olympics, Russia shows complete disregard, increasing missile and drone strikes on our energy infrastructure and our people. 660 Ukrainian athletes and coaches have been killed by Russia since the full-scale invasion began. Hundreds of our athletes will never again be able to take part in the Olympic Games or any other international competitions. And yet, 13 Russians are currently in Italy competing at the Olympics. They compete under “neutral” flags at the Games, while in real life publicly supporting Russian aggression against Ukraine and the occupation of our territories. And they are the ones who deserve disqualification. We are proud of Vladyslav and of what he did. Having courage is worth more than any medal. -
