The New LOK Disc: Last Train Home (John Mayer)

When the first notes of “Last Train Home” are started, we immediately realize how much we missed the rains in Africa. Confusion sets in when we hear not David Paich, but John Mayer's soft voice coming from our speaker. It is no surprise that Mayer has already sought his inspiration in the seventies in recent years. On the single “New Light” released in 2018, we hear similar influences, among other things. The video clip of "Last Train Home" also perfectly matches the atmosphere of the song and the fact that John has clearly not yet been able to capture a hairdresser's appointment to get rid of his corona coupe contributes to the whole. All kidding aside. “Last Train Home” is a typical John Mayer song. A catchy tune and chorus in combination with a guitar riff here and there. Not much special, but ultimately a pleasant song. At the end of the song we are also briefly surprised thanks to Maren Morris who shows up as a backing vocalist, and then fades out the song “Africa”-wise. Sander Hoogendoorn of 3FM plays it every day, so LOK-Radio can't stay behind -> LOK DISC!

#Lief is a themed broadcast of Decennium Dick on Thursday evening March 4, 2021 ... Love is never sin, living without love is sin! That was one of the texts that was written down in chalk on the public road near the Mieras Church on Saturday. How can we find love again in Krimpen? How can we together ensure that peace is restored in our society? Where we can all live, work and live with pleasure? Living with pleasure is also one of the central points of the Youth Advisory Council of Krimpens-Belang. A group of 15 young people want to help local politicians with their ideas and will provide the Krimpens-Belang and thus actually the entire municipal council with input. Two members of the Youth Advisory Council were our guests tonight. Your browser does not support this audio player. You can download the file .

Literary Happy Hour

After Erik's Tip, writer Marjo de Vroed sits down to tell something about herself and of course about her second book. Marjo de Vroed (1965) has lived in South Holland all her life and was a teacher at a Jenaplan school. She is married and has three grown daughters. When they were little, she regularly made up stories for them, which she brought to life with their hugs. She has loved writing since childhood. It started from group 4 with stories in the school newspaper and eventually resulted in adulthood in writing musicals for group 8 of her own school. In between, she wrote notebooks full of short stories and rhymes. And now children's books . First, of course, we have an overview of the Mega Single Top-100 and the announcement of the new LOKSCHIJF. Afterwards Ellen Bommeljé will be a guest for the item “Happy with the Bieb aan de IJssel”.

Municipalities support National Moluccan Monument

This year it will be 70 years ago that the 1st generation Moluccans were transferred to the Netherlands in 1951 with 12 ship transports. On command, about 4000 Moluccan KNIL soldiers and Navy men came to the Netherlands with their families (in total 12,500 persons). At the point of arrival of the 1st transport ship at the Lloydkade in Rotterdam, it is not yet possible to trace a historical event. The National Moluccan Monument Foundation (LMM) is committed to realizing a monument. The monument will be a tribute to this 1st generation Moluccans and their families and in recognition of the shared past. The monument can also serve to continue telling the story of the arrival of Moluccans in the Netherlands to current and future generations. For anyone interested in this history, the foundation wants to offer an opportunity to learn more. They believe that more knowledge of each other's past leads to more understanding. To realize a monument, the LMM foundation has entered into a p...
