This Rapalje show is about my past before Rapalje
And the beginning of Rapalje
There are some questions which you asked to me
I hope to answer all of them of course
but I can't answer all of them
And I'll show you some some real neat stuff that I used to do
Oh
oh it started as a music scene actually when I was 2 years old my parents have a
piano in the house and well as a kids you can you get curious so you start
playing with one finger on it and well that must be boring after a while so you
start playing two fingers and then use even more fingers and on the end you
seems to use ten fingers on the piano so you can do almost anything on the piano
so that's what I started and then I met someone
I'll play the guitar I thought that's good that's good I wanted to learn the
guitar so he learnt me to play the guitar and then we just started the
bends the dentist called April we had well not very many gigs but we wrote all
our songs and then there were actually good songs suppose was the bad dance but
then then I met Mikkel and yeah well where were being bored with with with
pop music so we thought folk music because we just discovered this in the
artist poppin grown which is discovered folk music so we thought folk music
that's a good thing to do right let's do that but well you need folk instruments
and you need to be able to play them as well and what we didn't of course Mikkel
played the guitar I thought accordion fiddle tin whistle
as a to Mikkel yet you have to play the Squeezebox that's good because fiddle
and squeeze pocket it's that's something there goes together so very very well
that's that's actually what we did so we we actually we created advance it was a
bit of fusion between my old bands and well I'd say the beginning of Rapala it
will call Bates Motel but Mikkel and me we weren't very
satisfied with the bends so we kicked everyone out and well the two of us were
left over from it so what we did is played in bars and on
the streets because Mikkel had experienced a street musician and and
playing in bars and just going around in the Hat and
getting a little bit of money or a lot of money so I learned later so he said
now come on let's do that and come on just go on he got me on a stage
somewhere in a cafe with my with my violin and I actually never played the
violin before I just got it that day I ringing up and I said and he said okay
come on we're going to new performance said no no I have to practice and then
he just hung up and like I got some we and while we played and well that's
actually a bit how it started so we started out as a duo on the streets and
in pups and then it got bigger and bigger
we've got guest musicians volume was but first a guest musicians we changed our
name from work and look to the eye coaches always rolled out we got a lot
of crazy names at that time but then we thought something was serious actually
it never got any more serious than the rock Pauli and that's not very serious
actually but it is to us so what we did we went to a library and well went
through a lot of dictionaries searching for a good name for our future bands it
should have been something like roscas and so we found that because it's a very
good translation from Rascals is our apology and that's Maki l found it in a
dictionary and we were cheering well that's the name that's what we want so
that's the name rap all you came out of a dictionary because we were looking for
all something more decent than her can't look
I was playing so loudly on the violin that mikela needed amplification for his
instrument so while I had to play even loud louder than that because he was
getting louder and louder new batteries and all high-tech stuff on that so I
thought of a trick to get my violin four times as loud as it was acoustically and
I'm going to show you now how that's done
I do play in rapport yeah well not not as much instruments as I can play
actually I'm a very lazy person no no that's what I am but but that's not the
reason for it we called my colleagues play a lot of instruments and I don't
want to double these instruments so my main instrument is the violin or the
fiddle if you wish because it's folk music but I also play the teacher space
and sometimes the tin whistle so when you do start a folk band well Mokelumne
we thought you have to look funky as well and we're in a Polish polish folk
vest of something I don't know how you call it but it's it's folk it's really
four bits polish and they actually I started out with this but then we
thought no no we we need some more something more Celtic or Irish or
Scottish so obviously we went wearing kilts but we didn't want the modern
normal kills we wanted something more exotic with the kilts so at that time we
looked at the film Braveheart that was a hit at that time yes a long time ago I
know and we actually a bits of copied the
style of kilt wearing from that film from that movie and they actually just
made it up for that movie it's not historically correct as far as I know
but it could have been possible that's what we're wearing nowadays the kilts
Braveheart style we call it now rope all your style but we didn't want to wear a
tartan from an existing clan of the Scots because well as you probably know
we're from the Netherlands and it's it's not it's not a good idea it's just copy
someone else's tartan and his family name and he stuff like that so what we
wanted to do is create our own tartan so I made our own tartan and I thought we
can use our own covers the colors you like might my kilt is quite brown Mikkel
skill this is radish William scale this green like Davis killed this blue so
they chose their own colours when I made I made the the tartan then we all used
the same the same pattern on it so we got our own tartan nepali clan tartan
and we actually registered it on the scottish database of Tartans so if you
want to see that some people wonder why I wear the kilts the other way around as
my colleagues I've got the flap on this side and the rest on this side
originally you shoot words on this side so I'm on the wrong side here but try to
play the violin with a flap of gilt cloth beneath it it's not working at all
so that's why I changed it around but later I found out it has another meaning
the head of the clan used to wear the other way around
so who knows I've got a question about the length of the kills actually well
how its put together normally the length of the kilt is 10 meters of cloth that's
the same with us but well you just got the dress part let's say the dress part
and then you've got some metres left and you just threw it over your shoulder we
already made a video where you can see how I put it on be easy and free when
you're drinking with me that's what we sing in the some drug stores and we you
can make a lot of great sentences from the idea of be easy and free but with me
come on I'm deep be easy and free when you're drinking with
